La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Minneapolis-Minnetonka"First the staff there was very nice and helpful from checking in to checking out very good customer service, the room was very comfortable but the WiFi was not good dropping constantly, the property was not bad , I didn’t get any breakfast personal choice but it seemed nice, my only complaint would be the lack of available towels had to ask for towels daily even upon checking in there was only one set of towels even though there was two occupants for the room,but for the price paid I would give...

Take time to clean bathroom floor better in corners. Otherwise it was good. Have more meals selection than just pork on breakfast buffet."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Minneapolis – West End by IHG"Chaotic front desk area in the evening when we tried to check in. We (and about six other people) had to wait over ten minutes before a staff member arrived to take care of us. Clearly management doesn’t schedule enough staff I the evenings. The hotel was fine, but definitely not worth the price. We should have stayed across the street at the Springhill for half the price."
LivINN Hotel Minneapolis North / Fridley
LivINN Hotel Minneapolis North / Fridley"I recently went on a 5 day road trip, and this was the last hotel of the bunch. I spent 2 nights here. The negatives: As soon as I walked into the room (non smoking room), it smelled like your grandma that smokes inside sprayed some febreeze in there. As a non smoker this really hurt my stay, and I tried not to hang out in the room for long because of this. The hotel itself is rather odd. It’s connected to a Menards and my girlfriend said it was very backrooms coded, and very creepy in some...

Springhill Suites Minneapolis St Louis Park by Marriott
Springhill Suites Minneapolis St Louis Park by Marriott"The room was spacious and clean. The only problem I had was we reserved a 5 night stay and we did not receive any housekeeping until the fourth day. The woman at the front desk said that I had opted out of housekeeping which I had not. She was not friendly or helpful and acted like I was irritating her. Ultimately, they did clean my room the last two days of my stay. Had the woman at the front desk been friendly it would not have bothered me so much. Outside of that, the facilities were very...
Delta Hotels by Marriott Minneapolis Northeast
Delta Hotels by Marriott Minneapolis Northeast"The location is OK. It feels like you're definitely in a very industrial or business area. The hotel feels old and showing it's age. The staff was quick and helpful when we asked for anything. A few things that are first world problems. No microwave. There is only one tiny microwave by the service desk. They lay out of the bathroom is extremely crammed. To get into the shower you have to get in, squeeze through the toilet, close the door to access the shower. The hallways don't seem to have...
