Great Place

My cousins and I met here for the weekend to go to the Mall of America. This was a terrific location, a short walk to the mall. It was really nice having the free extensive breakfast available and free shuttle service to and from the airport. The staff was friendly and very nice.

Mall of America Trip

Rooms are nice. Breakfast was jammed with people. Need to make adjustments there, more employees to keep things moving. Run out of food too often.

Don't plan on walking back from the mall with packages. It is not that convenient and farther than you think with a load in both hands.

Convenience, quiet, and comfort

I needed a reasonably priced hotel convenient to the Minneapolis Airport. (Proximity to the Mall of America was nice, too.) I was a bit worried about noise, but needn't have worried. Once through the front door of the hotel you can't hear the constant air traffic at all. The room was very clean, nicely furnished, and the beds were great. You don't get a better deal or experience for the price.

It was good.

Only real complaint- the coffee maker in my room had not been emptied/cleaned/coffee packet was still in basket - from previous occupant. Nothing major, to be sure! Thank you

Convenient place to stay

This hotel is a convenient place to stay. It is across the street from Mall of America, there is an IHOP and TGIF restaurant attached to the property, it is close to freeways, and the airport. My room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was still in new condition. The front desk staff were nice and pleasant.

Mall of America hotel

Always stay at this hotel for friends birthday party! Everything is perfect, except the parking situation there. To be expected I suppose because of the malls proximity.
