A well designed and well run hotel. This hotel proves that you don’t need to spend a fortune to have a truly great experience. Breakfast is simple, but really, really good. Wait staff are excellent.

Great help with our reservation at check-in
Pros:

We had excellent service at this hotel front desk by a very nice lady named Sunny! She went out of her way TWICE to be sure our reservations were worked out for our family! I was very impressed by her ability to solve problems and her wonderful, calming personality! All of the staff was exceptional! Great place to stay!

Great location and comfortable amenities! The hotel bar and lounge bartender, Karin, is fabulous! She made my husband a great old fashioned, me a great Negroni and played good music to create a vibe for the customers that was warm and inviting!

10/10 Would Recommend!
Pros:

I stayed at this hotel when it first opened nearly 10 years ago, and I was reminded of how convenient this hotel is to downtown and event/venue proximity, the friendliness of the staff (and bartender!) and the quality of the rooms. This hotel is worth the value for the stay!

Pros:

Nice location and nice rooms

I was not served when I went to the restaurant and I waited for 10 minutes and pressed the bell several times. In the end, I just walked out.

Terrific Staff in a Great Hotel in MSP
Pros:

In town for a wedding weekend. Great hotel and wonderful staff, especially Sunny at the Front Desk. Had a little snafu with the Bonvoy app, but Sunny owned it and seamlessly rectified the issue to our satisfaction and with a huge smile! Thank you Sunny.
