The Marquette Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton
Huge room - great value. I mean, a sectional couch plus a desk with room to spare? Crazy. Very quiet (even with all the football fans staying at the same time). Food at the lounge was average, but I don't judge hotels on their lounge food; it's more just a bonus if it happens to be good.

Rand Tower Hotel , Minneapolis, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel
The hotel was almost perfect. Only thing I would change is the walls in the rooms. They are so very thin, you can hear everything happening outside of the door. Other than that everything else was great. Front desk was great and very helpful.
