My Place Hotel - Shakopee MN

My Place Hotel - Shakopee MN

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at My Place in Shakopee was wonderful. I wish we would have had more time to stay in our room and hang out, but we were busy! The room was clean and everything was in great working order. Bed and the pillows were comfortable. Even though we didn't use any of the kitchen appliances other than the refrigerator, it was nice to have the counter space for our junk. And really nice to have the full-size frig with freezer for the pies we had bought! Latisha at the front desk was so friendly and always availalbe to answer our questions. Great location and our room was quiet even though it was busy outside. Will definitely stay here next time we are in the area. And I even see that we can bring out dog, so she might join us on our next trip!"
