The gal at the front desk was friendly. Great start. The room I was in, had a clogged toilet. I got a plunger. I started plunging and found remnants from the previous guest coming up! GROSS! Then noticed splatter on the underside of the toilet seat. CLEARLY it hadn't been cleaned. Thankfully I had a travel can of Lysol in my purse. Dusty room. Crumbs on the seat of desk chair. "Dresser" where microwave and mini fridge are hidden, the doors were full of smudges. The smell of weed was CLEARLY smelled by the first floor elevator, we were on the 3rd floor. The whole end ,where our room was, smelled AWFUL!!! It was VERY strong! The smell got into our room. We both had pounding headaches and irritated throats. Our clothes and other things also smelled like weed. We felt stuck as it was New Years Eve weekend. I always look for availability in a Country Inn and Suites, I was very disappointed in this one. I knew MN is now a recreational weed smoking state. I had assumed though, that as with cigarette smoking, it would only be allowed in certain areas. Out of sheer frustration, I was going to smoke my cigarettes in my room! We couldn't crack open a window, couldn't run the fan and the bathroom fan did nothing to eliminate the smell. I'm letting others know, if they want to stay in Brooklyn Center, avoid this hotel. I'll never return. The other 3 traveling with me agree and said they'd tell others the same.
