### Great stay in Minneapolis (5/5 stars)

### Review (5/5 stars)
"We had a great time at this spot. The location was great, walking distance to the lake, and the upstairs flat had more than enough room for our family of four. We were lucky enough to meet the owner who was really friendly as well and his sweet dogs. Great neighborhood. Only suggestions would be to have more towels and ones specific for taking to the lake. Also specific information in the flat about where to go in the home in case of a tornado warning (which actually happened while we were there)."

Positive aspects: Size, Great location
**Host Response:**
"Thank you so much for your feedback! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear that you and your family had a great time and enjoyed the location and spacious flat. Your suggestions about additional towels and tornado safety information are very helpful, and we will work to address those items. We hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future."

### Great location in a walkable neighborhood (5/5 stars)
"My family of 4 spent spring break in Minneapolis and were thrilled with the unit’s proximity to Uptown restaurants and shopping as well as the walking trails by the lake. We were also a short ride away from the Mall of America, the zoo, Paisley Park, and downtown attractions. The unit was so spacious that the teens got to have plenty of space to themselves and the parents could work and enjoy coffee in peace. "

### Review (5/5 stars)
"We had a great stay. The place was clean and specious. The location was perfect. Nice and quiet neighborhood yet close to all the attractions. The only disappointing thing was a fireplace. We chose this house because over the other because on the photo a fireplace was lit up so we got an impression that we would be able to use it. But unfortunately we were later informed that it is only for the use by the owner. But the place had great central heating so cold was not an issue. Overall, we had a great stay and I would recommend this place."

Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’d love to welcome you back for another stay in the future!"

### Birdseye View (5/5 stars)
"We loved the quiet neighborhood and the apartment is very roomy and comfortable. It’s definitely an older house, but we enjoyed it. It’s on the second floor of the house, but at
1,600 square feet it felt like its own home. We also enjoyed the large windows in the living room and dining room. Everything was as expected. We would definitely stay again. "

### Review (5/5 stars)
"This was a fantastic find for a our family of 5 (which includes three littles 5 and under). Picturesque neighborhood with beautiful homes, just a few blocks from the lake and not far from necessities for children (donuts!) and adults (caffeine!). We met the owner, and he was welcoming and personable and even left us a bottle of wine. So nice! The place itself is well kept, clean, quiet and spacious. And bonus that beds were very comfortable. We'll be back!"
