Yes, we can recommend this motel Prices have gone up for hotels/motels, so we were trying to find a fresh and clean place to stay in the Twin Cities location that was handy for our visit This La Quinta Inn worked out perfectly for that

The price was much less than the more centrally located Mpls lodgings, and parking was free There is no pool, but we never use that feature anyways Breakfast is included in the price and was good Room was clean Lobby was dated, but clean Fresh paint on outside of building and interior hallways , lobby and breakfast dining area are kept clean Staff were friendly and helpful A safe, comfortable and pleasant stay

Denise Johnson

The key cards didn’t work, due to a malfunction in the lock, so we were locked out of our room until the next morning We were given another room, but were not able to access our belongings There were bugs in the room, breakfast options were slim

Beds were comfortable, hotel is older, needs some work Staff was nice enough, I have not received a refund for the room we were locked out of, as I was promised I wouldn’tchoose to stay here again

Jamia Naomi

I had to edit my review because I had TWO wasps in my room ! They’re infested with other bugs as wells so they didn’t take my call serious! I have a 2 year old with me That was an incredibly dangerous situation!! Some of the staff members need to work on their attitudeother than that the cleaning crew is great

Their supervisor could use some work The breakfast is great! As long as you avoid the staff and bugs you’ll be fine

Brides beware, if you’re thinking of booking a room block here, reconsider We booked our June 2022 wedding block a year in advance with the hotel manager who at the time was so helpful and let us choose one of the few suites they have so our wedding party would have a place to get ready and we would have somewhere to go after our wedding in the evening I called a week before the wedding to confirm every person’s hotel room that was in the room block as well as our booked suite was correct to make sure there was no stress for the big day and they assured me everything was fine and provided all of the information requested

Our guests booked their rooms throughout the year and upon arrival many of them had numerous mistakes with their rooms or were double booked or were booked for the wrong nights When I arrived to check in they did not have our suite that we booked a year in advance to use as the bridal suite available We were told there was a plumbing issue in the room and it was no longer available, if someone books an entire room block around a bridal suite room you should probably let them know before they check in at 7 PM the day before their wedding that their room is not available… we were instead offered a small room with a Jacuzzi taking up most of the living room as a replacement The front desk girl working that evening clearly started five minutes ago and was on a Bluetooth headset with her manager the entire night learning how to do her job repeating verbatim what her manager was telling her to tell us… Other people from our wedding party spoke with the manager as well and nothing was done about our room not being available I’m sure that our room was just fine and they messed up the reservation or purposely gave it to someone else for more money as it was suddenly available the following day later in the evening but we didn’t have time to change accommodations in the middle of our wedding and we didn’t need the room anymore as everyone was already ready hours before overall the hotel was dirty and dated and I wouldn’t have chosen it again even if it weren’t for all the headaches It was very stressful and luckily was the only thing that went wrong with our wedding It’s too bad the wonderful manager we originally booked with had since left and management has clearly fallen apart and quit hiring competent staff If you’re looking for a hotel block for a wedding I would not risk the stress of this location

Gregory Feltman

I stayed here on 4/28 The lobby is your standard Americinn Looks stately and clean

The breakfast was good for the price and being freeMy issues start with the hotel room They are recently remodeled in the sleeping area and look nice However the bathrooms are old The shower head was almost completely covered in calcium and the water was very hardThe door had a bend in the metal footer which was sharp, and the carpet on the wall was peeling If you stay here, remember extra pillows, the ones supplied are smallThey have a pool which I did not use

Doing remodeling, weird people hanging around in the parking lotSketchy and dirty! The place is NOT worth my moneyIt makes me a bit sad that I paid as much as I did and it’s disgusting

The pool isn’t available either They have curtains and electrical every whereFrustrated 😠

Danielle Gjestvang

This smaller hotel was very cozy and clean They were very accommodating when it came to our specialty vehicle after being on the road in a snow storm all night They also let us check in early

Our kiddos and us adults enjoyed a nice and clean spa and pool The front desk ladies were super helpful directing us with any questions or needs They were super friendly and really quite amazing to work with This is our Shakopee stay most definitely! You can’t go wrong with massage chairs and arcade games See you soon, Shakopee Inn

Jane Rasmussen

I had a great experience here, stayed the weekend, had family members staying in other hotels in the area and visited them as well I must say I was extremely pleased with my choice of staying here Front desk was fast at check in, hotel lobby was clean, hallway and elevator was clean

I had a jacuzzi room, it was clean and comfortable Hotel was clean, and quiet Hotel could use updated bedding and curtains, but for value and experience I had, I can see past that Kimberly was extremely helpful and friendly in the mornings with breakfast! I will definitely be coming back!

After Traveling a few 14+ hour Days ,we stumbled upon this IHG Holiday Inn location

Checked in early AM ,got exclusive access to the Jacuzzi After getting settled in Man, was the Jacuzzi not only much needed but the tubs jets were amazing Managed to get all my seriously tense muscles & joints relaxed like no other By the time we climbed into our super soft & comfortable bed we were out Sooner than A ” Snap “! Breakfast the following morning was excellent as well From buffet style to ordering your own individual plate exactly the way want it ! Overall our Stay “Rocked” Considering we live on the road & have experienced countless hotels , it’d be awesome if every stay were as pleasant, warm,welcoming & filling as this Holiday Inn ! THANK YOU SO MUCH ” HIEB MN !” I’ll grab pics & load them later

Upon check in, staff on duty was not visible and/or present and when she did arrive at the front desk; there were no greetings and/acknowledgments extended to myself and/or my husband I had to wait for her to come from the back to attain service Throughout my stay at this hotel; there were never any staff present at the front desk

I always had to wait several minutes for them to come from the back and reappear to assist their guests… Staff is/was cold, unfriendly and shared no concern, important or needed information with me and /or my husband A male staff told us to read the rules written on the elevator walls (Verbatim: We should have read the rules written on the elevator walls) 😲 I did not and still do not know how to respond to this statement or command)Our room was not cleaned, even after personally requesting the service due to a spill on the sheets Staff said workers do/did not speak English and therefore, do not understand and only nod their heads 😲 (I received so many non caring excuses, attitudes and behaviors from the staff) We had no bathroom tissue to use from day one (We we’re completely out) The front desk gave us a card to request daily housekeeping service on the date of our checkout/departure with another guest room number/ private information written on the card: Room 509 (My stay in/was in a completely separate room) I spoke with a male staff at the front desk about the significant substandard to non(zero), quality of care and safety concerns due to my receiving another customers private room /information, and he immediately became hostile in demeanor, voice tone and attitude and began to tell me to be quiet because he was going to talk and tell me how the hotel runs I immediately became fearful of this staff worker due to his excessive and Increasing amount of aggression/warlike verbal uncontrollable outbursts towards myself due to my sharing the present experiences during my stay in which I paid the amount of money requested by IHG, in exchange and agreement for a pleasant, clean, friendly and safe environment and staff; and none of these agreements were met and/or happened for myself and/or my husbandLastly, a staff member told my husband and myself that we could both retrieve two free snacks each upon check in We retrieved one free snack during the morning and returned the evening and retrieved the second snack and we were charged on our credit card in the middle of the night, (fraudulent, immoral, dishonest, and overall dishonest) service for the snacks I am a 21 year total disabled Amy Veteran and I use IHG to stay when I to travel for medical appointments and/or VA related concerns and this is the most unethical, disrespectful, selfish, zero integrity, zero honor, zero dignity, zero excellence and zero commitment to their guestUpon advocacy for myself; I am/was treated with confrontational, unfriendly, unwelcoming, malevolent, negative, uncomfortable and frightening, oppositional and I’ll-tempered staff interactions and servicesI would never recommend anyone to stay nor give your business to this IHG I never say never; but today I am asking anyone who has/is considering spending your hard earned money at this IHG… Please don’t do it… Take a few extra minutes of your precious time and look a little longer and choose another company who desires and enjoys the people in whom they have agreed/pledged to service in exchange and/or agreement/return for an agreed amount of moneyOur hard earned and worked for moneyMy fellow brothers and sisters in arms, please do not solicit and/or support, physically stop by or look in the direction this sad, unappreciative and disappointing hotel… and staff…Thank you… I

Katrina Hoffman

My husband and I stayed here on our wedding night because our reception was right next door at MEC We were not impressed… We didn’t have time to check in earlier in the day so when we got there after the reception they said we couldn’t check in because it was so late

We apologized for not being able to check in earlier and basically had to beg them to let us check into our honeymoon suite which we had booked for months They never told us what time check in ended, so how were we supposed to know? Finally they decided to let us check into our room But overall the front desk service was very bad The manager, who I had been in contact with for months, was there too and he didn’t seem to care that we were the exhausted bride and groom just trying to check in on our wedding night I’d expect more from a hotel right next door to a prominent wedding venue

Kryptic Studio

Stayed for a week Horrible staff due to the rude and impoliteness Once I was ordering food from Uber and the desk counter lady yelled at the delivery driver and banned him from ever coming to the hotel

The rooms are bare minimum Chairs are falling apart, stains all over the carpets/ bed sets, However the maids were really nice and cleaned well if you brought the issue to them

Deb Walter

We stayed here because it is so close to the Entertainment Center but for the money, it’s not a very nice room Needs updating for sure Lamps looked very old and one didn’t even work so lighting was terrible

Has green worn indoor outdoor carpet Found a small Christmas bulb along the floorboard next to the dresser Don’t know how housekeeping missed it! Also there was a used bar of soap in the shower Eww! No art work on the walls Mattress was pretty comfortable Not worth what they charge Definitely are paying for the convenience of being close to the entertainment center Staff was very nice

I stayed here because I need to charge my car Typically I go to a place, plug in- once it works, I get the room Never had any issue doing so,but here, you need a room key to charge

Seemed reasonableI go in, explain I need to charge as a condition of using this hotel The front desk says it worksIt does not work They are charging for an amenity they do not provide, and will not give money back on the roomGo somewhere else if you need a charge

Kaleb Huffman

Very clean and conveniently located hotel just to the south of Minneapolis andminutesaway from The Mall of America The property is next to a fun restaurant Clive’s Roadhouse and a Denny’s There is also a gas station at the end of the street

They feature an above average breakfast buffet with eggs, rotating meat, cereals, breakfast pastries and fruits You definitely could do a lot worse with your choice of a hotel I have stayed here multiple times without an issue The staff is always friendly

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it could not have been more perfect It was comfortable, clean, and so so so cozy! The inn keepers were so kind and attentive and we really felt at home It the perfect walking distance to the lake and a bunch of great shops and restaurants, which makes everything just that much easier

Thank you for a great stay!

Jill McFarling

We had a great weekend getaway at this Inn We had the cardinal room which gave the additional space of a table/chairs and kitchen It was very quiet; we didn’t hear anyone else from our suite

I loved how soft the water was; very relaxing in the big tub Delicious breakfasts The location is perfect for walking to restaurants and shops Easy parking

Mark Schabert

We stayed here for a one night anniversary vacation and time to ourselves, as we have seven children and live just a few minutes away, but didn’t want to leave the kids for too long or be too far away from them in case they needed anything We had been hoping to enjoy the lake and bike trails, but due to the unseasonably cold weather and snow, spent the afternoon/evening at the Mall of America and the night at the Inn We had a wonderful time, and the Bird House Inn was a lovely experience! Although we did not have the pleasure of meeting the owners, everything was clean and welcoming and the breakfast was very nice

The Inn is very quaint, beautifully decorated and affordable The new bathroom with large hot tub in the Bluebird Room was so nice We hope to do this again sometime Thank you!

While checking in we were greeted by a very pleasant young man He was the ONLY part of the experience that was goodOur room-A nail was sticking up and was very painful when stepped on

It was located right as you walk in or come from the bathroomSeveral pillows were horrible They washed them too many times and the inside was just big clumps of stuffing clumped togetherYou could hear all the road noise while trying to sleepIt was super muggy in the roomWhen I got to our room it was opened The door was being held open by a coat hanger at the top of the doorThe bathroom tub/drain was brokeThe faucet was extremely loose and you could move itIf you want somewhat nice TP, I suggest you bring your own 🤦‍♀️If you like to sleep in a “dark” room, this is not the place for you The 2 shades they have no DO NOT keep the light outThe bathroom door knob was clearly put on wrongThe bathroom was EXTREMELY small The tub was meant for a child, very shallowThat was just the Room!The hallway had cords hanging from the ceilingThe pool area… if you want a relaxing Hot tub, go elsewhere It was good temp, lots of room, but the keys were very weakThe pool was extremely cold and not heated up to state regulationsWe were told we had free breakfast But when my daughters went down their, they were told they had to payWhen I checked out I thought it would be nice to see someone dressed somewhat professionally, but I was wrong No name tag so I have no clue who she was She was dressed in street clothes, not professional attireI let her know my issues, but she didn’t care She barely said anything to meI did let the front desk know, but I guess they do not have a maintenance crew on site to fix issues The nail was something I would think they would want to fix asap He did say they were booked and no other rooms were availableAll in all, stay elsewhere!

My first time coming here was pleasant enough to come back a second time Now, this second time has been a dis service to me and the general manager is rude and doesn’t wanna give me a room I booked online I called corporate and they have rooms available but the general manager lied and said they didn’t

When the general manager heard me on the call with corporate the general manager admitted to having rooms but if I wanted it I would be charged extra on top of the room Also, the first time I came here I didn’t have to wait for a available room Now, this second time I have to wait until 3pm to receive an available room without an extra charge I won’t be back to this hotel ever again The lady was a cute fat white Caucasian brunette Didn’t wanna say her name This happened at the 7745 Lyndale Ave south, Richfield, MN 55423 location

Andrea Christensen

Friendly staff, helpful with recommendations for dinner, clean and comfortable amenities, made to order omelets and pancakes along with breakfast bar, renovations within the hotel are not a hindrance Across the street from a shopping center which makes things convenient Bus stop located in front of the hotel- other reviews state “loitering”, but aside from local bus patrons, there was not an issue with “loitering

Troy Weiland

If you are thinking you are going to have a “Hampton” experience at this hotel, STAY CLEAR My room was dreadful Within the first hour, this is what I noticed: Long black hair, (I have short blonde) in the bathroom sink, tub, and spare bed

A HUGE crack in the bathroom sink, and the room phone was stained so yellow it looked like it had been pulled out of a smoker’s convention that it had been sitting at for 10 years Needless to say, I checked out two days early, the place was so so disgustingI wish I could do a half star on here, one star is being too generous

Room and bathroom were clean Room was a little small but all we were needing was a place to sleep Beds were comfortable

Shower and towels were good Breakfast had a nice selection and was stocked well Gentlemen at front desk at check in needed to work on his personality and customer service skills The gal at the front desk at check out was personable

I would not recommend this place The pictures posted by the business make it look a lot nicer than it is The pool looks really nice in the pics, but once you arrive it is a lot smaller and quite dated

We arrived to find dirty wash rags in our room, as well as only 2 sets of towels, even though we had marked 4 people to stay We also paid for “breakfast” which we were told the next morning they did not offer, to later find out when checking out two days later that they do have a small boxed breakfast not what you would think of for a hotel breakfast thoughAll of the garbages were full on the property, they were out of coffee each morning we went up there I also felt bad for the front desk guy as he was opening the pool, stocking the towels, filling the coffee, answering phones, checking in people Seems they need to have the maids doing some of thatAlso, the prices for their snack bar were excessive $2 for a 1oz bag of chips ?! The prices at Hilton or other nicer places are better than thatOverall not a great experience, needs a refresh in parts of the hotel, more cleaning/service, and better snack bar pricing

Risba Smith

Upon arriving, we were there 15 min early than our check in The counter employee said the rooms would be ready for an hour or so There wasn’t any manager to talk to

As we waited with 5 others to get a room There was another employee that started work A woman and her kid checked in and got a room, but our weren’t ready!! Went back to the desk and said something and he just up graded my room at no charge Gave us a 10% off to the adjoining restaurant Come to find out it doesn’t open til 11, so there’s no breakfast for checking out Now that was great until I seen make-up on the pillow cases and went to cut the air on and there was a hole that you can see the outside Satins on the curtains fly in the room probably from hole Never stay there again and won’t recommend them!! Hotel has gone down need a face lift and upgrade!!

The Creative Bite

The pool was the reason we booked this hotel and it was a tiny cesspool I am not very picky when it comes to cleanliness, but this hotel had me grossed out The very small pool had clumps of hair floating in it, the bottom was covered in sand and in the shallow 3 foot deep sections, my kids could barely see their diving toys on the bottom it was so murky

The kids had already gotten in the pool before I realized how gross it was, so I let them swimI called the front desk the next morning to see if they had any plans to clean it and she assured me they cleaned it every morning LIES! The next evening we went back to check it out but it was still so gross I wouldn’t let the kids get back in The sand was piled in the same spots on the bottom and it was still murky No staff had touched that poolThe rest of the hotel was also just run down and grimy As we walked in, the ceiling was crumbling into buckets on the floor from water damage When we walked in our room the first time there was a dirty women’s headband filled with hair on the floor, meaning the room was likely never vacuumedThe pros: It was relatively cheap and the AC worked I did a bedbug check and didn’t find any I have never done that at a hotel, but this hotel warranted it

General manager checked us in and was extremely kind and personable Asked us about our stay, and even let us check in 4 hours early (I had put this in as a special request but it had been missed It was quickly rectified!)Breakfast was surprising for a hotel breakfast – they even had fresh, hot bacon

Room was clean, parking was easy Highly recommend!
