I had a fantastic time at Colin's place. It's in a very accessible part of the city and was easy to find. The room was comfy, and had enough space for my clothes and things for the week. It was warm and well insulated, which was especially important for the cold November days we were there. The bathroom was spacious, and had a great claw foot tub.
There were plenty of amazing and affordable places to eat within a short walk, and a few cool local shops. Downtown was a quick walk or bus ride away, and the local Minneapolis Institute of Art was a great diversion for a few hours as well. I'd highly recommend staying here when you visit Minneapolis!
