Very nice hotel located only a block away from the train station. It's only a 10 minute walk at most to both US Bank Stadium and Target Field. The room was very modern and nice.

A fine place for a weekend

We did a quick weekend getaway, so we didn’t spend a ton of time in our room. It was clean and had everything we needed. We did wish the hotel bar had a bit more of a vibe, so we ventured out to other places to enjoy something more lively.

Everything about my stay from check in to check out including the bell desk holding my luggage until my late evening flight out of town was excellent. The room was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. 10/10 would recommend.

The place was nice. Website stated valet parking and no one was available for valet. It was cheaper to park it myself. Had to use your room key to use the elevator. Security reasons - very minor inconvenience. The restaurant downstairs I didn't try. It looked very good.

More staff to deliver quality service and higher retention to cater to the need of future guests. Parking was relatively easy to find. Valet was sketchy. Did not seem trustworthy driving my Mercedes so not the most convenient when it comes to finding one’s way around the hotel. Clean room. Great view. 4 star hotel expectancy delivered.
