Very charming boutique hotel right next to downtown in a beautiful park setting. Great for couples seeking some quality time in Minneapolis. The hotel personnel were kind and relaxed. The food and drinks at the bar and patio were fantastic. Exremely resonable price for the quality. If you like old charm and modern comforts, this is your place. Also, free parking is something you just don't find anymore with this level of hotel accommodation.
