Pros:

Location

Cons:

The staff is rude as fuck and wsy over entitled. Zero customer service skills. I couldn't check in until 3pm, because it was Jesse James Days on Northfirld, MN. Who cares? It happens every year. Maybe they should be staffed for it instead of making me wait and charging me for a room I can't use?
Then the audacity 9f the Country Inn Suites c#ntvto text me sheviscrrpirting me to Booking .co.. My stance is that Booking.com needs to be better at allowing sh#t hotels to be listed on their site.

wouldn't stay again unless I had to
Pros:

The room is fine. clean. nice bed. good water pressure

Cons:

terrible breakfast. I didn't eat anything. way over priced for what the room / hotel is. I want to see the price cut by 75% and then that's more accurate.

Location was good.
Pros:

Breakfast was too basic. I was honestly surprised seeing the options. Needs some improvements.

Cons:

Customer services were not good. The location is good but nothing else. The room was too high for the room and services.
