The elevator is very slow, the stairs were faster to take Stayed in a room with two beds and a pull out The pull out was very close to the side of one of the beds

When of the kids fell off the bed and hit the metal on the end of the pull out A piece of already chewed gum was found on the bottom of the comforterBreakfast was a nice lay out lots of choicesWorst part of stay, an expensive item was left behind in the room The location services showed it at the hotel After informing the hotel they hadn’t cleaned the room and were going to check Then the room was cleaned but nothing was found Later on the location services were disconnected on the device The item would have been very easily visible and not easily mixed in They stated it could have ended up in laundry, or trash They would check but were so far behind it would take a couple days After a week they stated they weren’t there Stated that the item was lost but not there or it may have possibly ended up in the trashI don’t accuse the housekeeper, or anyone It could have ended up in laundry, it could have been turned in and removed, it could be in the trash Now it’s a he say , she say with no way to prove anything so I have to take a loss and hope it doesn’t happen to other guest DOUBLE CHECK, triple check

Went to check in at 5:30pm and was told the room wasn’t ready because it was getting a deep clean Came back at 6:30 Room smelled like vomit, the carpet was wet, there was a giant hair ball in the bed and the sink was backed up

Jake, the manager, couldn’t put me in another room, help me find another hotel or apologize for trying to rent out a disgusting roomClearly whatever they were trying to clean up with their afternoon deep clean wasn’t successfulI get that a hotel can’t control what people do to the room, but they can choose not to rent the room and help the minimize the inconvenience to the next guest

Haven’t been here almost 3 years and boy has it changed As a Corporate hotel, you can see how COVID has affected the amenities and service of this establishment Cody and Mike were great! But with reduced staffing, restaurant limited hours of service (no breakfast which was a huge plus, no lunch and no room cleaning -unless you ask-) has significantly diminished the allure of this place

As this is a Corporate option, I MIGHT return but it’s doubtfulIf you are considering going, check ti see what services are available before you book Don’t rely on websites!

Joseph Hill

Staff is accommodating and facility is clean They have a operating pool and hot tub Morgan’s restaurant and bar is connected to the hotel has a great vibe and waiting staff

The pictures on the google map listing along with the gym do need to be updated badly

Tony Frei

Not sure why this has a 4+ star review The front staff are horribly rude and don’t trust each other to check you in properly The pool is set so cold that kids will freeze

They set it for Olympic pool temperatures where people are exercising (like 80 degrees) and then they have no sympathy when your kids are turning blue There’s no continental breakfast Overall, definitely NOT a premiere hotel Most regular best westerns are FAR better than this dump

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

Chelsea Harper

We were very pleased with our stay here All staff were very friendly The room was clean and the free breakfast was fantastic

The little walk in pool and water slide were perfect for our 1 year old Our housekeeper came in between our night stays and gave fresh towels and went as far to pick up our daughters baby doll toy off the floor so she could vacuum and wrapped it in its swaddle and placed its bottle next to it on the bed It was just a very sweet gesture that we appreciated We will recommend this hotel to everyone we know coming this way

Pearl White

Outstanding service, room, bed, and breakfast Showerhead needed cleaning, but the rest was amazing The room was so open and clean

It had all the amenities I neededThe service desk handled all the weird changes my company threw at her While she was working with me, she recognized the next customer in line and told them she would be “right with them” Another employee heard that and promptly came out of the office to help Wonderful service

Dylan Rybak

The hotel was nice for the price in a good location Had no issues at the beginning First maid service came through, didn’t really do the greatest job cleaning the room and didn’t take out the garbage

But whatever, COVID procedures probably we didn’t care that much But the next day the assistant manager Jordan went out of her way to tell my wife that they QUOTE “need to have a discussion” about the amount of trash in our room I was like are you kidding me? You guys didn’t take it out and we have 3 adults and two small children who are in diapers, and we’re doing our best My wife waited patiently in the lobby while the maid cleaned the room only to have that embarrassing comment made by somebody with some authority while she struggled to keep our children entertained Very demeaning I have quite a lot of nights under my belt with Wyndham hotels and haven’t run into something that ridiculous yet Now I have to say that I called and freaked out because I was so angry, she did apologize but also tried to make my complaint seem less important because we were staying on a “discounted rate” The toilet in the room had brown swirls underneath the lip you could see when sitting in the tub, kind of gross No compensation was given for our complaint which we weren’t expecting but I think would’ve been warranted I don’t think we will stay here again

Felix

Stayed at hotel for honeymoon and it was perfect Amazing food delivered to the room from the restaurant, all staff were friendly and accommodating Everything was clean and loved the suite, the tub is large enough even my 6’5” hubby was able to comfortably relax and bathe

The common area was luxurious so it was nice to have a quiet meal in the room one night and play cards with a local friend Definitely want to go back! The rooftop bar was amazing as well!!

Emilie Christensen

I have stayed at Omni Viking Lakes a few times, and there are a some things that keep me coming back The hotel is beautiful! The Nordic Viking theme is just perfect, with subtle and tasteful nods to the Purple&Gold Vikings who’s training facility is just next door This hotel is high end while still being inviting and comfortable

Side note: If you are a MN Vikings fan, you just might end up having a drink and some great conversation with a player or coach ;)The rooms and spaces are exceptionally clean and well appointed The staff- from the front desk to the restaurant, and bar staff- have all been so kind, professional, and welcomingTheir loyalty program is so thoughtful! Sometimes a glass of champagne at check in, complimentary wine/beer at the lounges or restaurants, or complimentary coffee from the in-house Caribou Coffee branded shop are always so appreciated I recently also booked services at the spa and it was truly a luxury experienceSo, with all of the hotels to choose from in the area, I’ll continue to come to Omni

Cassandra Krzebietke

This place is excellent My fiancé and I booked a regular room and were able to upgrade to a suite for half the price We had a huge bathtub and shower room

Very clean room, comfy bedThe food down at the restaurant is good too Only complaint I have is the fries were not all that great But my Korean Fried Chicken sandwich and his steak was so yummy! We had breakfast down at the little coffee shop (wasn’t great for the price…)We also got couples massages at the spa and were treated like royalty when we went in there You can use the spa all day if you book a serviceOverall, it was a nice and enjoyable experience We were sad to leave!

Adam Binder

Starting with the positives, check in was easy, staff was helpful, pool was nice and room was large Now for the areas of improvement We arrived and the TV did not work

We called the desk and they came and fixed it The room smelled like smoke The shower had a slow drain and took about 10 min to drain after a shower The pull out bed was worthless as springs were easily felt through the mattress Every time the AC kicked in, the unit was so loud in the bedroom that it was difficult to sleep The breakfast in the morning left a lot to be desired Ham and potatoes No eggs or pancakes Milk dispenser didn’t work Juice was out of order Just disappointing If you are doing a quick stay it is OK, if I had to do it over I would make a different choice

Ashlyn Bentley

This was the best hotel I’ve stayed at for the price you pay My room was basically an apartment, with a kitchenette including stovetop, dishwasher, microwave & fridge with ice maker with its own bedroom The bathroom was a good size

They even included dove soaps instead of cheap like usual hotels The pool area was good & the pool was nicely warmed Breakfast had great options compared to other hotels I was very impressed When I got to my room, the front desk even sent a text to ask how the room was & if there was anything we needed

Kalyn J

We stayed here last night! The room was nice and spacious – we had a One Bedroom King Bed Suite Very affordable and friendly staff The pool and hot tub are open for use until 12am which is also great

Breakfast buffet in the morning as well! One cool thing about this room – I’m not sure about other rooms as well – is that the conditioner and shampoo are in actual pump bottles attached to the wall So instead of just having the mini bottles, you could use as much as needed! Will be coming back in the future !

Tim Terrones

This place is very nice The room is spacious and nicely decorated We had a free upgrade to a room with a seperate bedroom and living room

The lobby was pretty and it even had a sweet glass rotating doors (sadly not in operation) Pool is hugeI did not care for how long it takes to get from parking to elevators, seems like there should be more Hallways were a lot less polished and clean than the rooms and lobby I still think it’s a great place with the few complaints though

Dawn M

The staff at the restaurant were super nice The food was pretty good Check in was quick and easy

However, the rooms in this hotel are VERY outdated The whole place needs a paint job and some new carpeting The rooms need total remodeling The furniture is old, wood, chipped and scratched The bathroom shower had an actual tub/shower combo with a fabric curtain hanging on a rod I only stayed 1 night but no complaints on cleanliness of room Just really old and outdated

Ryan Whedon

A sad hotel, crying for some TLC Everywhere you look the hotel is either peeling, chipped or just plain falling apart It appears the hotel is attempting to fix some things, but not at the pace the hotel is aging

Even the van door on the shuttle was partially falling off and didn’t completely close Don’t count on a open gym as even though my key opened the door, it looked pretty much closed The pool and hot tub is open, fairly nice in size Small business center with a few computers and printerFor a quick overnight it’s perfectly acceptable hotel if you just want a clean and comfortable bed to sleep on I somehow got a suite this stay, but still only used the bed area and would have been greatly disappointed if I paid for a actual suite

There’s an indoor pool and hot tub too I want to highlight that Michael’s professionalism and service make you feel like you are staying at a 5 star resort Great experience Highly recommend this location Also very close to the airport

**Updated my star rating due to the fact that I received a response about the maintenance of the pool That was my mistake for assuming the weren’t checking Like I said, the staff was nothing short of amazing

I may give them another try if we’re in the area**The staff was amazing and kind!! The room itself was ok Cracks along AC/heat unit, missing electricity plate, shower tub was grimey, shower head was leaking and sprayed water out of the shower unless you turned the shower head a certain way, and found a baby spider crawling on the bed Thin walls/door, you can pretty much hear everything I felt like the swimming pool hasn’t been treated and with an all girls softball team there all weekend and them using the pool often, I would think they would check One small elevator for the entire hotel, which took forever Breakfast was decent, but can’t really complain since it’s free Parking wasn’t too bad Location was ideal but I would definitely check out other hotels in the area after this stay

Wendy Leigh

What a wonderful stay at this hotel!!! The staff is amazing! Moona (and I think her name was Ellie) at the front desk went out of their way to make our daughter’s birthday an extra special experience Our stay was also incredible and we all slept so, so well! Here are my pros and cons for this hotelPros:- The staff 100%- beds are super comfy! They are a medium firm

We all slept so, so well!- We had a queen suite and it was very spacious with lots of room for our family of 5 to spread out/get ready in the morning- The breakfast is yummy!! We love how Springhill has the sugared waffles They are our favorite!! They also have hot protein items like sausage, eggs and bacon and they keep them well stocked-It was super duper quiet even though it appears the hotel was pretty full/busyat least from the parking lot and the main lobby area-Parking is easy- The shower is awesome! Lots of water pressure and the massage feature is wonderfulCons:- the building is older (if you consider that a con) There are stains on the carpets in the hallways Our room appears to be updated however- Our room had a bit of a perfumy smell when we first came in I was worried it would cause my asthma to flair, but I didn’t have any problems thankfullyWe would 100% stay here again if we return to the area in the future!

Went down for a wedding and spent 2 nights here in 2 different rooms First room was a suite, working fridge, microwave, dishwasher and fireplace with different colors in it Very spacious room, separate bedroom with a poolside view

I slept on the pull out bed which I found to be comfortable Separate air conditioning for the livingroom space and bedroom which was very nice Second night, was a regular room Also very comfortable but I did find some food residue left under the desk there from a past guest Pillows and bed was very comfortable and the refrigerator, coffeemaker, and TV were all in working order Desk staff was very pleasant to work with and greeted us every time we walked in or out the front doors I’ve added pictures of the pool/jacuzzi area

Samantha Y.

This hotel was okay, but not for the price The “water park” is a joke There aren’t very many pictures of it on the website for a reason

There’s a little splasher area and one water slide The pool doesn’t go deeper than 3ish feet, and it is NEVER on unless you walk all the way out to the front desk and wait for someone to come along so you can request it be turned on There is only one elevator in the building and it’s right by the pool, so it stinks like corn chips and dirty, wet feetOur room had candy on the floor when we got there The toddler found one right away, and then we found a few more plus a lot of crumbs in the carpet We left a couple bags of ice in the tub to melt overnight and they left rings in the grime inside the tub One of the TVs in our room didn’t have a working remote We filled out the requests for our stay ahead of time, but we didn’t get any extra pillows or towels When the room is reserved for more than 2 people, why aren’t there more than two towels?The staff was nice They did have a little area where you could buy snacks or microwavable things We were able to go to the front desk every single time to ask for coupons when we wanted to eat in the restaurant, which made the kids’ food free

sasho nedanovski

I came out for a business meeting and when I came back to the hotel after the meeting the room had already been cleaned and $300 of my money was stolen from the roomDon’t use this hotel theirs no safe to keep your belongs in and the house keeping will steal your money or anything of VauleAs a business owner myself this is so unprofessional

Make sure to never stay here I’ve been in plenty of hotels and never had anything stolen, especially money!Bad for business you guys should make sure you hire people that are more trustworthy and do better background checks!

Thanks Monty for your hospitality I would like to also thank Tina Harpke, the general manager for her outstanding hospitality She’s a real sweetheart and made sure my stay was very pleasant Overall everyone was extremely nice and showed nothing but great hospitality Thanks for a pleasant stay

Amelia Tiede

Lights in elevator flicker off and on Same in my bathroom Silverfish bugs in the bathroom too

No sheets or pillows for pull out bed but someone brought us another bed with sheets and pillow Very friendly workers but some guest where rude to my grandmother Also in my grandmothers room there is a indent in the room floor which is bad because she is easy to fall and she almost did Freezer had old Baskin Robbins in it Ice machine was down too If your looking for a cheap stay that is convenient to where you need to go then this is the place Forgot to mention they didn’t really have much food options for breakfast and they had and oatmeal cooker out but no oatmeal in it and had waffles but no syrup

Simon Rodriguez

Room stinks of mildew, window left open when I arrived Guy at the desk treated me with suspicion like I didn’t belong there and kept asking me for multiple forms of verification (I have a reservation) Had to call my boss in the middle of the night and wake him up to get it sorted

We have an account with Marriott and use them all the time but this is the first time I’ve seen such poor treatment Zero attempt at customer service Tossed the keys on the desk and said “there you go”

Linda Goodman

This was a great hotel

room 415 was perfect for my two daughters to sleep on the queen bed and I (mom) slept on the pull-out sofa (which really wasn’t bad at all) Then, I had the bathroom, office, kitchen, sofa bed, and access to the main door all to myself I loved the pocket door to the bedroom where my girls were sleeping I was able to work late into the night and I got up early, ate breakfast, showered, and worked some more in the morning before they woke up The best part of breakfast: they have a waffle maker with two unique toppings: cool whip and canned cherries YUM!

Joe Koken

Have stayed often over past 5 years given location convenience to children Quality continues to decline, always short with staff but keep raising prices Checked in last night no amenities such as soap, shampoo, TV didn’t work (next day they determined missing cables) and temp at 60 degrees in room

Heat does work but took 30 minutes for room to be acceptable Called next day for help and desk said it would be awhile as she was only one working If their were other alternatives in area would stay there Bar attached to hotel is only bright spot…

Paul Ferguson

The staff were super friendly and I felt the rooms were cleanI arrived late and was put in 101 The handicap accessible room

The entire room is like an after thought full of old furniture and the disproportionate ceiling height gives it a strange stretched lookOverall my stay was okay I would have liked to have a normal room

When we pulled in, the lot was nice and clean We made our way into the lobby, which seemed really nice and clean The girl at the counter was sitting there with her phone and earbuds in

I asked where the bathroom was and then she got up and pointed the way She was nice enough, but seemed sort of lazy I went to the restroom and my husband checked us in He said she acted as if she didn’t really want to be there She also told him that they were pretty short-staffed and all the rooms hadn’t been cleaned yet since the weekend started Okaaaay Why would you tell that?? When I was in the bathroom, I noticed that it really needed some tidy-ing up There was toilet paper and paper towels all over the floor and the soap container needed to be filled up There was soap all over the vanity I thought to myself that our room better not look like that We went to the entrance where I room was closest to and there was a garbage can that was completely overflowing I thought that instead of sitting on her bum at the front desk, that girl could have been tending to these issues It just made a nice place look bad I liked our room Nice space and clean But the beds are old and not at all comfy for two people in one bed I think our son slept like a baby (but he’s a teenager and would have slept as well on the floor! Haha!) The mattresses are just way to soft and ours had a slant to it on one side In the bathroom the exhaust fan didn’t work, it was very dark to take a shower and the water went ICE COLD on me for about 20 seconds That woke me up! Also, the drain in the sink smelled like mold and made me gag when I had to brush my teeth or wash my face I guess we got our money’s worth If the things I mentioned were addressed, I could have easily given it 5 stars I’m giving it 3 just because of the mattress and I didn’t get a lot of sleep

Excellent customer service! I took advantage of the park and fly option which is super convenient and affordably priced—keeping away the hassle associated with traveling Upon arrival, ALec who checked me in couldn’t have been more excellent and more patient in explaining everything, since I will be with a pet upon my return From making the reservation to checking out every employee was very friendly and professional

This Best Western goes above and beyond to help ease your travel Additionally, the rooms were very clean and spacious, and the bed was super comfy Great assortment of amenities, along with a fridge and microwave I am already looking forward to my return stay

Five stars for amazing serviceWe were in town for a funeral and they went above and beyond to make sure our family had a smooth trip They found fun things for the kids, facilitated extra pool and family connection and every time we spoke with them, they were incredibly friendly and helpful

The rooms were good (comfy beds, good pillows, decent room renovations, and it looks like bathroom renovations are happening shortly too), the pool was great, loved that breakfast was included, but it was the people working here who made our experience so memorableThank you

Love the size and layout of the room So many lights and outlets for devices First time I’ve been in a hotel with a dishwasher, and dishes!Full fridge, microwave and lots of open spaces! Really appreciate the curtain that can be pulled to separate the “living room” and the beds! Love, love, love the desk with a roll out dining table, great use of space and function! I’m going to have to find more locations of this hotel for future stays, really like it a lot!

Do not stay at this hotel! Disappointing overnight stay two weeks ago Stayed at this hotel one time in 2021 and loved it, but things have changed and we do not plan to returnOur room was disappointing

It was very apparent that surfaces of doors and some walls had not been wiped down in a long time The pocket doors for the bathroom were very heavy and difficult to slide and close completelyOur biggest issue was the noise level on our floor Several rooms were occupied with large families with multiple young children Even though the rooms were a distance away from us, we could hear kids screaming and talking very loudly despite their room door and our room door being shut And these children were repeatedly allowed to slam room doors and run screaming up and down the long hallway This running went on for 10-15 minutes periodically We called the front desk to complain multiple times but the disruption continued When we left our room for dinner we noted a long line of stepped-on Cheetos all down the hallway When we returned to our room much later that night, the mess was still there Apparently no staff were walking the floors and tidying up as needed It gave the hotel a “trashy” feelOur second issue was the fact staff allowed guests to walk around the lobby area barefoot or in stocking feet We noticed this during the breakfast buffet And some of the attire of both adults and children was questionableWe did not feel satisfied at all with our stay We have stayed in multiple Home2Suites as we travel cross-country and have never had such a disappointing stay We will continue to book rooms with this hotel brand but will never return to this one!

Pros:1 Nice sized rooms2 Good blackout curtains3

Pretty good continental breakfastCons1 Room wasn’t clean (hair in the shower, something splattered all over the curtains, air vents blowing out dust)2 Lots of dogs staying there It is a pet friendly hotel, but every time we left our room we encountered 2+ dogs with varying level of behavior, some that were obviously not very well leash trained3 You park in the Cedar Grove ramp, and there’s only one entrance to the that is anywhere close to the parkingFor the price probably won’t stay here again

They let us in our room early It’s a comfortable room the AC works awesome the pool might be small but thats ok it’s going to be nice to jump in for a dip after being outside all dayTHANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY I APPRECIATE THAT! IVE ONLY SEEN SMILING FACES SINCE WE ARRIVED SO THANK YOU FOR THAT TOO

Daniel LaJesse

The rooms were comfortable, the staff were helpful on all levels and the amenities were all in good condition Due to some staffing shortages they did only have one staff member to run the afternoon lounge and the front desk, which did make for longer wait times for a drink Still nothing too outrageous, but still noticeable

Other then that our stay was enjoyable, relaxing and we enjoyed the winter wonderland view Thank you Mark and Danny!

Deb Thompson

I can’t say enough about how wonderful this hotel is My husband and I have spent the last two weeks here following a house fire The staff have been so compassionate and supportive

They’ve gone out of their way to offer help and ask how we’re doing As for the hotel itself, our suite was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed The room was spacious, the bed and pillows super comfy, and the furnishings top notch Special shout-out to front desk staff Patty Jo and Bukwon for being delightful, kind, and going over and beyond the call of duty You made our stay so much more pleasant and brought smiles to our faces during a difficult time

The highlight is the breakfast Waffles are good Beds definitely are not queen size

full size is more accurate With that being said the rooms are clean and it’s comfortable The parking lot is beat up The elevators are nice and fast The pool area is in the lower level and was fun but a little bit of a small space The hot tub is closed

Jenna Downey

The stay at this LaQuinta was really comforting At first glance, we thought the hotel room was pretty small, old, and were bummed out the patios weren’t able to be accessed When we checked out the pool, we were stunned because it looked out-dated, but we enjoyed our stay here nonetheless! We found the pool enjoyable even though there wasn’t much to it, and were bummed that the hot tub wasn’t working

The only real big downside was the breakfast The orange juice tasted extremely watered down, and the options were pretty limited The biggest things that mattered though was the cleanliness of our rooms & the friendliness of the staff! The rooms were tidy and clean but the walls were very thin, and we could be heard (talking in normal tone) from outside the room and we could hear others talking and moving around outside of ours All of us found the beds uncomfortable, and all of my friends had one night where they all would wake up every hour or so due to noise We booked this place due to the lower price in Minneapolis and since it was near everything, so if you’re looking for a budget place this is a good option, but consider everything listed above!

Amazing rooms Comfy beds Fridge, microwave and tv

Staff charged my card for my entire stay versus just holding my card for incidentals even though the room was already prepaid through their website! Each staff member I spoke to you gave me a different story asked to what was happening, which made my stay miserable considering they took a significant amount of money off of my card You have to reserve your shuttle from the airport Which comes at the top of every hour They state that they will shuttle you to any venue that you want but when trying to go to Mall of America which is 10 minutes away the only shuttle they had was at 6 PM and they would pick you up at 8:20 PM, the mall closes at 8 PM so you have to stand outside underneath warming lights which don’t work until the shuttle comes We used the shuttle two times and each time it was late by 30 to 40 minutes Even with that being said I tried to go to the mall called them at 5:45 and they said the last shuttle goes out at 6 PM but it was too late to order the shuttle because the driver was already doing other things The breakfast was horrible the only salvageable thing would be the waffles The apples were not even good The milk tasted gross and there was nothing except sugar for your coffee No eggs or yogurts “Hash browns” Were simply just potatoes cooked with no frying or seasoning The hot tub does not work and they will no longer be using it because it’s broken and cost too much to fix it according to staff, the pool has way too much chlorine in it and it’s freezing cold I am giving this a 2 star because the rooms themselves were fine

We were very surprised at how much we enjoyed our stay here For the price of our room we expected it to be lacking in comfort and amenities We completely wrong

The room was great and the beds were comfy The pool area was under construction but the actual pool was clean and well maintained They switched the breakfast every morning and even though there wasn’t a fully stocked gourmet kitchen the lady who cooks there was pumping out some good stuff (There is an amazing little breakfast place nextdoor if you want to change it up one day) The staff was friendly and the area was safe and secure It was a good 15-20 min drive to Minneapolis but was well worth it

Raor Bear!

Staff was cool and friendly The room I had was well designed, comfortable and included a microwave and mini fridge The hotel itself is a little worn and the elevator needs some work, but they were remodeling the pool during my stay so updates are happening

My main critique is that the fitness room is lacking and I would recommend squeezing a cable cross machine in there Otherwise it’s a couple of treadmills and a dumbbell rack Other complaints are minor cosmetic details that not everyone will even noticeI favor Hampton Inns during work travel for the breakfast they serve and this place was no exception The offerings vary a bit each day but usually consists of eggs, waffles and sausage It’s extremely convenient for me since I’m typically short on timeI’d be happy to stay here again

Sandra Bass

The room wasn’t ready and no soap in room except for face soap When ask for soap they said that was the only soap they had Seldom anyone at the counter

No one ever came and made the bed, empty trash, made sure there was paper products or towels We could of stayed in a cheaper place but wanted something a little nicer since we haven’t traveled in awhile and that didnt happenwould never stay there again or recommend it

Customer service was exceptional I tried to get the women’s name that helped us check in and couldn’t get it But she was wonderful and made my daughters birthday stay feel very special

So awesomeThe room was beautiful, unique and very cleanWe loved the hotel was connected to the mall We never had to leave that was super coolOne thing that I thought was the pool was supposed to be salt water but we smelled a lot like chlorine Not a big deal the pool was also fun and loved the tables we got to have dinnerWe will absolutely be back!

Mark Drury

Hotel is very nice Radisson needs to focus on building more ‘Blu’ hotels in the USA Staff was extremely friendly, great shuttle service to and from the airport and local businesses

It’s attached to the Mall so easy access to shopping The on-site bar was excellentThe rooms were very nice but the walls were very thin; could hear doors closing down the hall and the loud TV from the next room over Overall a good stay

Denise Morgan

We came with our son for spring break The lobby is so cool and comfy The rooms were fun and funky

The bed was a little firm for me but the pillows were perfect Note that the room service menu is on the TV along with other information We kept looking for a book The in- house restaurant, Firehouse Grill is so yummy I loved that the hotel was attached to the Mall of America, it was so convenient My only complaints are that there are not many channels to watch on TV, unless you want to pay for on demand, so we just streamed from our phone The main chair in our room was stained with ink, a drink of some sort, and full of dirt The rest of the room was very clean though and we spent most of our time exploring so not a big deal The shower was a rain head with a hand attachment as well Heaven! The pool is nice but not very big It fills up fast and there is also no hot tub Room service was awesome Would definitely come again I wish I took better pics
