Clearly have a back up plan before staying here I booked a suite because we have two set of twins to only find out that they completely changed my reservation with no explanation phone call or anything Manger didn’t seem to care much and no one tried to fix the situation

I book my reservation well in advance It was booked September 2021 I hope I never have to book here again I didn’t even want to give it a star Please have a back up plan!

Audrey Geissinger

I think if no one has ever stayed here when it was the Sheraton then one would think this was a nice hotel Ever since it switched to Marriott this place has disappointed This time no cold water for a shower, no room service even though they advertise as such, room wasn’t ready at 3pm and my door was damaged and had to be repaired as it wouldn’t shut

The staff really tried and were pleasant The only reason I stayed here again was because of business I had in town I will absolutely not stay here again

WE HAD A MOUSE in our room! shortly after we arrived as we were getting ready a mouse ran across the room and then ended up going into a hole under the A/C We called the front desk and they sent a gal up with a decorative basket (two giant holes on the side) to catch it They would not upgrade us and almost didn’t give us a new room (They said they didn’t have any clean rooms)

We were late to getting to our event because we had to figure out a solution with the front desk The gentleman that was at the front desk when we finally left for our event had stated that he would move our belongings to a different room once it was clean, did not We arrived back to our hotel about 330am to find out that our things had not been moved and that we didn’t even have a room ready for us to switch too The only saving grace for our stay was that the two gentleman that were at the desk when we came back at 330am were not only apologetic but kind, understanding of our frustrations, fun/funny, and very helpful!

Claire

The first issue was that our toilet overflowed with some kind of soap around 7pm Okay, not a huge deal since we called the front desk and they sent someone to clean it up He was very pleasant

The second and more serious issue was that all night there were people running through the halls screaming 12am, 3am, 5am I imagine they finally went to sleep around 7am when we had to check out We got a babysitter overnight to celebrate my significant other’s graduation from nursing school and got zero sleep I told the front desk about the problem in the morning and they responded with an anecdote about how they once worked in a hotel in Virginia where there was a lingerie party and those individuals were loud? I wish I were kidding, but I am not Extremely uncomfortable interaction and did not help resolve my issue at allI will not be back nor would I recommend this hotel

The lobby is nice, everything is clean Bed was comfy Maintenance was good

Hot breakfast and pool good I gave it three stars because the bathroom was so small you can’t even close the door while you’re sitting on the toilet The depth of the bathroom is the width of the tub Should be just a shower if that’s all the space they had Also explains why their website shows no bathroom pics None If you don’t mind that, you will like the room

Noah Lemke

Hotel is nice and pool is nice and breakfast is awesome here, This hotel only got 2 stars because of the pool and breakfast! But stayed here back in Jan for the ice castles and the front desk group are unbearable and rude, simply asking about a room rate that was promised to my girlfriend was too much Than her family stays here because they had a fire at there house and just because they asked for towels and the room to be cleaned they get kicked out! I understand the whole Covid thing but seriously that has been over for a while now and it doesn’t give you the right to be rude and threaten to call the cops! I won’t stay here again nor will anyone I know plus my girlfriends family will probably tell everyone not to stay here til a change is made at the desk When will hotels go back to being corporate ran? Cause that’s the only way it needs to be this independent owners don’t care about the people staying at there hotels nor do they care about the service there team is providing!

Shannon McCloskey

We happily got married and when we got to the hotel it wasn’t until 10ish pm at night on our Wedding day When we walked in there were pop can stains on the counters, sticky stains, trash from other people before us underthe couch, and worse of all there was a nasty stain on the top blanket Other than the lack of cleanliness the friendliness of country inn is wonderful and warming

We were so tired and kept going in and out of the room between our house, celebrating, and then back to the hotel so we weren’t in the room all too long I would’ve said something the first night or the next morning when we first came but I was just so worn out from the wedding I didn’t wish to complain Otherwise it was a decent room I just wish it wasn’t so dirty because out of all moments I wish it didn’t happen to us on our special night

Although the hotel was recently remodeled and looked nice there seemed to be some deeper issues The elevators were slow and noisy and didn’t seem to run wellWe had dozens of ants in our room

The ants were in our bathroom as well as on the dresser in the main room The room also did not include a hair dry and a burnt out light bulb in the the bed side table (We did not complain until checkout as we arrived late and were gone all day We noticed the ants when we got back but we leaving early the next morning)When we mentioned the ants and light bulb to the front desk staff at check out they didn’t take note of our room number It was clear they either knew about the ant problem in the hotel or didn’t care they have an ant problem We did not ask for or expect any compensation and were only interested in seeing they cared about the issues This is not a cheap hotel and I expected much better at this price point

Zebulen Dickey

I am a Hilton Honors member and made a reservation at this location for one night being in town for work I had stayed here multiple times before because of its location and I liked the rooms I was asked to show the card I planned on using to pay for the room(the same card I used to make the reservation) and was told that they could not accept it

I explained to the gentleman at the front counter that it was a business card that I use while traveling and have used it at this location before as recently as the week before He said that was irrelevant and he couldn’t do anything to help I was quite furious when I left Especially because it was 1030 at night and I was exhausted I got to my vehicle, cancelled my reservation and made another one at the Hampton Inn 5 minutes down the road and didn’t have any issues paying with the same card that was turned down earlierI don’t ever plan on recommending this location to anyone nor do I plan on staying here againThank you

Kacey Hammer

Rooms and public spaces were clean, which is rare these days Housekeepers said hi when they saw us in the hallways, which is niceFront desk staff wasn’t very friendly and they forgot to fulfill our request a few times

Elevator was very slow the last day When we asked about it, the front desk was obviously irritated that they had to answer about the slow elevatorPool is indoors but well maintained and clean with towels at the ready

Stayed at this hotel with my entire extended family for a funeral Staff was extremely friendly and courteous and the General Manager Lynne was a great help in helping make arrangements for dinner at the adjoining Machine Shed (which was delicious)The hotel is very clean, and the lobby is beautiful

Very comfortable beds and large bathrooms is a plus The pool area is incredibly spacious and the kids loved itWill definitely be staying here again

Lydia Keskitalo

Clean rooms and great staff, but the floor plan is very odd Many of the rooms look into the pool which itself isn’t bad, but the windows are very thin and the pool doesn’t close until 11:00pm This can be a problem if you are here for business or if you like to get to bed early

However, good prices, clean rooms, and helpful staff makes this hotel a good place to stay in St Paul

Lisa M

Black hole of a room Overall, the hotel was fairly nice, typical Holiday Inn…HOWEVER, our room had absolutely no natural light coming in

We had a window, but it faced a wall Pitch black at all hours Hard to relax, when you have no idea what it’s like outside, or cues that it’s getting late, etc We (spouse and kids) slept terribly as we all kept waking up at various times afraid we’d oversleep (yes, we used an alarm clock), since we had no other cues it was morning Pic was taken before checkout at 9:30 am, just to show how ridiculous it wasWas never informed our room was like that when making booking, or calling in to confirm that day Unable to get new room as hotel was booked No refund as prepaid for best price We’re done with the IHG brand after this

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

It’s in a nice area and only an 8 minute drive from a family members house We have stayed twice for medical appointments for our kids The pool is super cold

The rooms are definitely in need of some TLC They are currently remodeling so I’m sure it will get better The first time we stayed the room was very clean but the second time the room was visibly not cleaned in a few spots and the duvet cover and was stained The breakfast was decent both times We stayed with all 4 of our young children and it’s nice to have options for breakfast that each of them likeWe would consider staying again after the remodel but will be finding another hotel in the meantime

Currently under renovation, but you wouldn’t know before 7:30 any morningStaff was super helpfulProperty inside & out both are very well keptRoom is great, plenty of space, including a desk, seating area, coat hooks as well

The shower & bath are goodRoom has plenty of charging locations, and plenty of lightingThe blackout shade does the job perfectlyI’ve worked in the area many times, but this is my 1st stay wish I’d known before now about this gem!

Abrina Tarasenko

To the ones who rely so heavily on reviews before making a decision: As an avid user of Holiday Inn I was somewhat skeptical when reading the reviews of this hotel on google but decided to bet on this location knowing it was a corporate owned location While I have allotted for grace of the construction being completed in this review I feel like there are several areas as room for improvement to take this from a 25-3 star hotel and bring it to the high 4 if not 5

The first this was the cleanliness in ALL common areas of hotel the hallways, breakfast areas were never cleaned during our 4 day stay This is something so easily fixed yet no one took the time to do it At one point there was dried blood on the floor in the breakfast area which again to my horror was not cleaned during our stay The next area is the elevator- the way the elevator functioned was unacceptable with catching- it was almost scarier to take the elevator vs the stairs The cleanliness of elevator was nothing short of terrible sticky mess, handprints, visible dirt debris all days of the stay Again I know there was construction but there’s no reason that staff can not clean and mop the elevator at MINIMUM once a day The next was the noise level With the guests that were there during out stay the noise level and “rowdiness” gauge was off the charts It seemed like the staff either made no attempt to stop it or just didn’t care to Either way nighttime was dreaded especially since I was traveling with 2 little kids The other final area of improvement I would suggest is keeping a much closer eye of the freshness of the food During our stay on 7/7 we got some milk with a 7/8 expiration date Upon opening it we quickly realized it was sour and threw it away Yet on 7/8 when we came back downstairs much to my surprise all the milk with the 7/8 expiration date on it was still out When bringing it to staff attention staff notified me that they technically have 5 days AFTER the expiration date to keep it out for consumption YIKES Never have I heard of that and if that truly is the policy it is only opening the door for a food poisoning lawsuit at fault of the hotelWhen it comes to the question of would I stay here again the answer would have to be probably not There’s other options right across the street that I’d be willing to explore before coming backPros:LocationCons:Room Cleanliness, Facilities, Atmosphere

Angela Malik Luck

Hotel is very dated The breakfast is hit or miss – day one was meat, potatoes and eggs Day two was potatoes and eggs

Day three was potatoes, french toast, and eggs Day four was cold breakfast for $9 Day five was a full spread I watched someone try to check in at 6PM and get told their room was not ready yet because housekeeping was short staffed Check in is at 3! It was comfortable enough but I will definitely try a different hotel when in the area again

Mike Beschen

I stayed here almost a month So got a really good feel for how things a run at this location I’ve stayed at several Hilton properties

This one may be the absolute worst one I asked several times for my sheets to be changed, that only happen once during my 26 day stay They never once vacuumed the carpeting in my room Also you can forget about the bar and restaurant It’s almost never open The staff is very friendly but they are working under a manager that is inept I’ll be staying at the Marriott next week

Stayed here for a convention My room had bugs Woke up with bites in multiple places

The location was convenient with access the convention center The service is exceptional by some employees The hotel restaurant hosts and servers were exceptional A certain bartender who I won’t name needs some etiquette and costumer service training due to her dismissive behavior The manager did remedy the issue quickly

Harry “Burge” Burgess

DON’T PAY STANDARD PRICEFirstly, I had quite a big discount and was able to split the cost with a friend If this wasn’t the case I don’t feel this would be worth itThe foyer is extremely nice and fancy

The facilities are goodRoom was old-fashioned but nice Clean bathroom and room in-generalIf you’re receiving anything it’ll cost $7 per parcel which is one thing that wasn’t advertisedAnother was that they take a $600 security deposit until your stay is over They put a hold on your card I believe which gets released a few days afterAll-in-all it was a nice stay but the standard price is extremely expensive for what you get

We decided to spend our anniversary here as this is where we spent our honeymoon 5 years ago and still love it! The staff are very nice, it’s always clean, pool is nice and is 3-5 feet so not very deep but enough to swim laps or just lounge in The price seems reasonable to us, as we paid $163 for our suite for the night It’s nice to have the roof top restaurant attached!We always get the suites with the hot tub that has a fire place, king bed, stand up shower, and lots of towels

We would highly recommend them and will be going back again

MIsty Alford

We have stayed at this hotel on several occasions The times before were good This time the hotel was wild and quite the party atmosphere

It was so loud outside our rooms until after midnight Definitely do not stay on the ground floor if you are wanting to sleep at any point The other room we had on the second floor wasn’t much better We understand people having a good time but this was outrageous When management was asked about it, he politely replied there wasn’t anything that could be done and the bar stayed open until 2AM This will be our last stay at this facility

Shayne E

We were in town for some concrete pump training and stayed at this facility Nicest Best Western I have ever stayed The owner would personally greet us at dinner to make sure we were enjoying our stay

The restaurant bar inside the hotel was lively and had incredible food Try the prime rib it was delicious! We had a large group and our server, who I believe was Eddie, was very attentive and kept the drinks flowing This is why I can’t remember his name for sure! Great stay

The breakfast staff was attentive and the food was delicious! The entire facility was clean- housekeeping staff does a great job!! I was so impressed with how friendly and helpful every staff member was! Everyone was very professional!

It was a beautiful hotel but they were also hosting professional soccer players and we did not feel we were treated like we were as important as the other guests We arrived for our honeymoon, which was noted in the reservation by our travel agent and we didn’t even hear a congratulations from the staff I would not say that anything was bad, it was a lovely hotel overall but for 4 star accommodations, we will book elsewhere in the future

Chrystal Caruthers

So, this is supposed to be a higher end hotel Don’t be fooled Initially I was in room 803 with sight lines of the air conditioning systems on the roof just next door

The buzz kept me restless all night The next day I requested a change Now, room 1616 was totally fine Quite, airy, bright all the things you expect Even the shower system was better — multiple body sprays versus one in the lower level room So the disparate room situation aside the doorman at night is a nightmare to deal with A simple question begets sarcasm and riddles Asked if I could park on the street overnight, he told me to read the sign I did Again, is it legal to park on the street, I’m not from here and the sign only says to feed the meter between certain hours In Chicago, street parking is tricky It takes a native to interpret Finally I decide to park for free just outside the hotel doors and pay the meter starting at 8am I saved that $50/night hotel parking fee He was speechless when I approached the hotel with my room key to enter Terrible I wouldn’t stay there again no matter how discounted the rate is The Keurig didn’t work The shower has peeling tape (room 803), the very old bathroom TV doesn’t work and I’m still not sure why it’s situated opposite the toilet, but that’s another story Oh, and Room 803 had broken glass in the bathroom when I checked in Housekeeping had to come clean it up This place is a mess

We stayed here for Valentine’s Day as a staycation We live in the Twin Cities but wanted to do something special It was a lot of fun

We used their valet service which was nice We also took advantage of their rooftop spa, this was so amazing It’s a great place for just a special night They are extremely dog friendly so if you have a furry friend bring them along The only downfall, we had horrible service in the attached restaurant We stopped in for a late night drink and a snack in the bar area, our server ignored us the entire time Didn’t bring plates, napkins or silverware with the appetizer we ordered Finally got her attention and asked for napkins (we had ordered cheese curds – greasy – napkin was necessary) she finally sent someone else over after we were done and told them we didn’t need them anymore She was completely engaged with another table showing them pictures on her phone and carrying on a long conversation It was ridiculous

The hotel is beautiful It’s fairly easy to find and pull up front The roof- top hot tub and sky line view were awesome! The room was spacious and the beds were comfortable

We didn’t get a chance to check out the bar/restaurant but they look promising The valet experience could use a little work When paying over $400/night for the room and $48 for valet we were expecting for at least a little help unloading vehicles and bringing luggage to our room When leaving- call plenty early for the valet It took at least a half hour from the time we called to get the vehicle

The Hewing is no doubt a beautiful place to stay and well done for the city However the price you pay for a night doesn’t quite match the quality of what you get unfortunately For a price tag of $420 for a king size city view we were expecting a bigger room, plush hotel towels, robe’s, a more comfortable bed with a waterproof mattress cover that doesn’t make that plastic sound when you move on it, and at least a bottle or two of complementary water

We went up to the rooftop jacuzzi to enjoy the evening and it was right next to the roof top bar, which anyone can get into, so all the bar attendees are watching the hot tubers, it was a very weird and uncomfortable set up Needless to say we didn’t get it Your paying Ritz prices without the amenities

Especially appreciate the dog-friendly policy Very welcoming to visitors traveling with pets Location is convenient to many downtown destinations

Adjacent ground level parking lot Staff helpful and polite Common areas were clean and pleasant My only complaint is that we were not notified upon check-in that we needed to request housekeeping services, so we were disappointed to return from a day of sightseeing to a room which had not been cleaned

Stacey M

I would not recommend a stay here, primarily due to rude and incompetent staff We had to get our keys reprogrammed each day as 3 different employees seemed to only know how to program them until 1:00 pm

the next day They then lied to us that we must have been putting the cards next to our phones Both cards held by different people stopped working at the same time with each set we got And neither was keeping the card anywhere near their phones We then encountered people in the elevator that had to the same thing happen to them each day, and also encountered rude staffThis hotel is listed as a “plus”, but does not include the basics They do not have a complimentary breakfast, there is not a microwave in most rooms, a safe was in the location above the fridge where the microwave should have been This was extremely inconvenient, and added extra costs on an already quite expensive hotel nightly rateVery disappointed

The room was nice love the tiny kitchenette and the bedroom being separate but, that’s where the fun ends I spent two nights and it cost me over 60000 which is way more then I could afford but it was our anniversary

Restaurant is way overpriced for the food I ordered room service got two drinks, a burger, a dinner with a very small piece of meatloaf, two oysters, 4 bite sized donuts with cold chocolate syrup and two deviled eggs, they charged me 17000 I didn’t even get the fries that was supposed to come with the burger What’s worse is the food was cold The hotel charged 1200 a day for parking I was told nothing about being charged for parking when I checked in Got a few drinks at the bar drinks were between 1000-2000 each It was 1000 just for a shot They didn’t even give you a receipt so you could at least see what you were getting charged for The man that works overnight is very eude I was trying to ask questions he kept walking away not listening and kept saying theywill help you when you check out I wanted a detailed receipt of everything we got charged but all he said is when you check out I mean that’s fine I can wait till I check out it’s the tone of voice and the way he acted

Our stay was amazing from check in to check out! When checking in we were made aware of large group of hockey kids staying It did not bother us one bit but was nice they let us know The room was beautiful and clean! The shower was hot and had great water pressure! The staff and chef were AWSOME

Friendly and helpful! My omelet was delicious! We will definitely stay here again when visiting the kids! Thank you so much for a great stay!!!

Vonice LarsenBailey

Three stars because the front desk staff is phenomenal and work hard to do the very best to make guests feel welcome Avoid the place like the plague if there is a hockey tournament going on, the running up and down the hallways and noise was ridiculous The breakfast is an overpriced poor quality “meal” you would be better off stopping at the Holiday gas station and getting some snacks

Zak RL

Don’t stay here unless you have no other options Walls are paper thin, you can hear EVERYTHING in the room next to you All the doors slamming at 1am was ridiculous

Our room was clean and somewhat modern but all the doors stick and you really have to yank them hard to shut them Beds were comfortable but the pillows were super flatThis place also offers ‘breakfast’ but that’s a complete joke They charge $14 for a “hot breakfast” or $10 for anything else They would literally look at you with a straight face and ask you for $10 for a bowl of cheerios What?!? Just go to the holiday gas station across the street for a cheaper and better breakfast

If you want to waste a lot of time finding a place to stay you picked the right group Could not book a room on the app or the website Waited on the phone for over 25 minutes and then the price is conveniently $40 more

I’ll pass, I don’t have that much time There are plenty of hotels that have efficient reservation processes This is the second time in three stays, never again!! Sad because the hotels are beautiful but not worth the headache

Anika Logan

Their still doing no cleaning due to Covid however I didn’t know that meant public areas too You’ll be waiting on the phone trying to book an reservation for 5-10 minutes, which is ridiculous The manager Samantha is absolutely rude

When asking simply questions she seem anxious and irritated Truthfully if they revived a different manager I feel as tho this hotel could be a nice However Melvin at the front desk was very nice and helpful

Brooke Schaefer

Clean, updated, spacious rooms I like there’s a “market” in the building for snacks that may have been forgotten for the trip

Having Starbucks coffee in the lobby is always an awesome feature Staff is friendly and helpful Just wish they had things in the rooms saying when the snack/drink bar closed Or a list of nearby restaurants that delivered to the hotel

Really nice hotel, our stay was great! Lots of bright colors, the hallways were yellow

it was fun & cheery The breakfast was very good, lots of choices and 12pm check-out is the best! The pool is pretty tiny but we had our two young children with us and no one was ever in it, so it was perfect for us We spent everyday of our trip in it and the hot tub Everything was clean and the front desk people were very helpful Had a nice stay, thank you!

I’ve had great staff experience in the last 3 years I been coming to this hotel Didn’t have that experience this time, looks like a newer staff Was very short, not professional kind of like I was a friend to her, casual carefree attitude

Was checking me in but conversing with guests waiting behind me but not me Not up to the Marriott standard

Rue Wei

I didn’t sleep well because I can hear people talking and music playing through the wall I didn’t get to enjoy the breakfast because the breakfast time starts too late I hope the breakfast time starts earlier like 5am or at least have other options out for guests

I checked out the hotel and waited in the lobby for about ten minutes waiting for my ride When I got on the car, the manager came out stared at me intensely When we rolled down the window he told me that he thought I just walked passed him without checking out Super creepy
