@NormaJean4 :
Due to the fact that our Metro area encompasses two major cities as well as the suburbs plus the reason the guest(s) are visiting the area varies, it is difficult and often fruitless to provide a general list of items. Instead, we provide a variety of resources around the apartment to which visitors can refer for ideas such as local magazines (Minneapolis/St. Paul magazine, Minnesota Monthly), brochures and business cards in our "lending library", past entries of the Guest Book we leave out, and an online Hostfully guidebook which contains our House Manual, suggestions for restaurants, grocery stores, fitness centers, pharmacies, bar, museums, and other items of interest.
When guests book, we do inquire as to their familiarity with the area and if they'd like some suggestions for when they're in town. Periodically we are asked for tips and we'll provide some restaurants and/or activities based on their reason for coming (e.g. last week our guests were here to celebrate a birthday and they ended up taking a tour of the baseball field and visiting a local theme restaurant that had been suggested).
Basically, be open to helping your guests, but don't expend a lot of work since it can be challenging to figure out what is interesting/worthwhile to people.
