Stewartville Vacations from $648

Not the best but worth the price

Good: Hotel pricing was low and included free parking. The breakfast was pretty good. The staff were friendly. Bad: The distance to Mayo Clinic was farther than expected. The hotel does have a shuttle but doesn't run on a regular schedule so the wait can be lengthly. I was told by the hotel staff that gave me a number to call and the shuttle would pick me up any where in the area. But when I called the number I was told the shuttle only stops and picks up at one location. Fortunately, the weather was good and it was about a 15 minute walk to where I needed to go at Mayo Clinic. Internet speed was the poorest I have had in over a decade. It made it difficult to make a secure connection to my work cloud. It wasn't much better than old dialup speeds.

Everything was great from the breakfast, cleanliness and courtesy of the staff. Very close to the Mayo Clinic, less than 10 mins. They also provided a small complimentary meal Monday through Thursday.

Staff very helpful. Essex restaurant very good. Rooms small. Overall good.
