There’s a lot of street work in progress around the hotel right now; but the inconvenience is manageable. You can’t beat the price and convenience for proximity and accessibility to the Mayo Clinic.

I would never stay at this hotel again! Our room was a previous hospital room. The bathroom was disgusting . When you take a shower the water was either scalding or freezing. No in between. Staff completely blew off our complaint issues. We should have been warned this was a previous hospital room ad the size was absolutely tiny. The room could barely house a queen size bed. Would not recommend.

Nice hotel that is connected to the Mayo Clinic via tunnel. There is shoping and food options in the tunnels under the hotel. And there are plenty of plces to eat around the hotel. There is a parking lot attached to the hotel making getting from the car with all your stuff easier.
