8.4/10 Very Good! (643 reviews)

We stayed to go to a Twins game. Decent walk, but valet parking plus the room was reasonable for us. Room was decent, but not perfect. Breakfast was food, nothing great. Staff was helpful and nice.

It was nice and easy. Did have a little mold in the bathroom above the shower head and in the sink. Other than that, the beds were comfy and everything else looked clean.
