A tired hotel that was once fashionable. Desperately needs the rooms redone. A/C did not work (summer). Refrigerator did not work. Very convenient to Mayo Clinic. Not expensive; appropriately priced.

We have stayed here every time we needed to go to Mayo. This time, we got a room that had a connecting room, and the people in the other room were very loud; we could hear everything like they were in our room. The room itself was clean but was very warm, I think from being on the 10th floor.

I love the proximity to Mayo Clinic. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Our room was very loud. We heard a toilet above us flushing all night and faced the street and heard lots of outside noise. Large gap under the door to the room allowed in lots of light and noise from the hallway.

While it was super convenient to be able to walk across the street for drs appointments, I can't say it would be enough for me to ever stay again. There was no way to control the temperature of the room so we were sweating all night. The room service people walked into our room multiple times, even after being told no and with the sign on the door. We also were charged an extra $160 on the morning of the last day and I still do not know why.

Enjoy this stay. So convenient with the skyway to Mayo clinic buildings. Disappointed breakfast is not included however a very nice wine and cheese reception in the evenings. That was a pleasant surprise. Our main complaint is the hot water was not hot. Showers were lukewarm at best. More cool than lukewarm. Didn’t matter if we showered at 6 AM or 12 noon it was still cold. Not pleasant. With the higher cost — one would really like a hot shower! Staff at the front desk was very nice at check-in!
