"Stayed 5 nights asked assistant manager for house keeping one time and they didn’t even clean the room, had to go and ask for clean towels and more supplies. Breakfast was perfect hot and well taken care of/ clean and the lady working it very friendly."

Hilton Garden Inn Minneapolis Downtown

8/10 Good

"Clean rooms and lobby, kids loved the pool. I booked several weeks ahead 2 rooms as my wife and children could not be accommodated in one room. I put in a request weeks before travel to have the rooms close to one another or at least on the same floor but they did not accommodate. They said there was another room on the same floor close to me but couldn’t put me in even though that person had not checked in yet, they said because “they requested a high floor” but they weren’t concerned with my request I gave plenty of notice for. So I had to take two of my kids to another floor and my wife stayed with the others."

Delta Hotels by Marriott Minneapolis Northeast

10/10 Excellent

"This property was a very pleasant surprise!! We stayed there during the State Fair and will absolutely rebook for our next trip to the area!! There is NO breakfast included but they do have a nice coffee bar in the lobby where you can purchase coffee! The facility is CLEAN and I felt safe there! There is also a restaurant which is attached to the property that we did eat at one evening- so we didn’t have to go driving around!!"
