Great location in canal park with super spacious suites. But air conditioner didn’t seem to work and you can’t open the windows so it was pretty stuffy.

Staff was friendly. Breakfast was very good! Our room was dirty & dusty. There was a "powder" on the dresser. The bathroom floor was very dirty & hair all over. At some point, someone blew something up in the microwave & it was still there. Our room was very cold. I was told on the day of our departure, the the thermostat was most likely not set correctly. When i went to the desk on our second morning, that was not mentioned. departure, that there were more settings for the thermostat. We were also.told upon arrival that the hottub was down but should be running by the following day. It was not running when we departed 2 days later. Parking was very difficult on our 2nd night as well.

Staff was excellent. The room was in good order except the tub didn't drain. Their laundry facilities were out of order. Their hot tub was out of order. Their ice machine was out of order. And fireplace was out of order. But I would highly recommend staying there. Just maybe check and make sure all their amenities are working before you go if you need them and I would go back there. Gladly staff is excellent

Our plane was late so we did not get in until 10 PM. The staff was very friendly, the room clean with the full kitchen for us if we had stayed longer. But it was great to be able to walk across the street and get a delicious meal at a pub that stayed open until 2 AM. It will definitely be the place we go to stay when we have late night flights to Duluth. It's right in Canal Park.
