No courtesy shuttle

Note it's an airport hotel, but no shuttle. I get it, remote northern Minnesota. & Only 2 flights a day in & out of Bemidji. But with no taxi service til 7am , and unreliable Uber/ Lyft then what? Ok, what, you wall to the airport at 5am.

The room was nice - the only problem was the steamer in the room did not work. I asked the front desk for a different one or an iron. She could not find a different steamer and stated that there were no irons. I mentioned that I could throw my dress in the dryer for a few minutes - she said the dryer cost was $2. She could have offered to use the industrial dryer or give me the $2 for the dryer - it was not my fault the steamer did not work.

Hotel was nice and clean. Staff at check in was very nice and gave us a great recommendation for a local restaurant/bar for dinner. My only complaint would be noise. The AC unit was loud like most hotel units but I was surprised at how much road noise I could hear. I’m a light sleeper so it was hard to get a good night sleep

I will not book here again due to the rudeness of the general manager in handling a difficult situation. It was not the fault of the property, however, he was very quick to repeat this to me. Over and over again! Which did not help our situation in the least. In fact, I’ll say it again, I will never stay here again because of the way we were treated. He rude and very argumentative.
