Good distance to the location we were attending but wouldn’t recommend other than that.
Pros:

Distance to the us bank stadium! Great walking distance.

Cons:

The ice machine didn’t work to get ice, they said they would use the security deposit to pay for the parking then proceeded to charge us anyway and never emailed me my receipt when I asked specifically for this, and the food there isn’t worth the price at all compared to the several places nearby.

Pros:

It was quite clean and nice for being in the middle of downtown Minneapolis.

Cons:

Quite overpriced compared to nearby hotels, 30 dollars a night for parking is a bit much, random fees kept appearing on cards, and housekeeping requests weren't met.
