The guy never informed us that we had to pay extra for our dogs. He charged us $50 more for the dogs and the hotel was so so awful. Dirty,smelled so bad like dog urine. Was hair all in the bed. We ended up leaving, no refund. I do not recommend this place one bit!!!

It was very outdated and grungy feeling. Dirty microwave, hair and dust on the floor trim, very worn towels and sticky carpet. One desk guy was none too welcoming, the other was very friendly. It was inexpensive in comparison to other hotels in the area but as they say, “you get what you pay for “!

We enjoyed our stay, the hotel is near a train station so you do hear trains at times. Also, the hallway smelled like marijuana, not surprised as it’s legal in MN.

The room had a surprising amount of open floor space, which our family greatly appreciated after a long day in our vehicle. A goodly number of power outlets, easy to access. No breakfast, but we'd brought picnic fixings with us and were flexible. The night clerk was quick and professional. Not chatty, but not unfriendly. Ditto when he also checked us out in the morning. Some guests were noisy around midnight (Sat. night / Sun. morning), and we heard some firecrackers go off in the parking lot, but that was the only disturbance and quickly ended. (I did not feel unsafe.)

Somehow even worse than I expected

Non smoking room smelled strongly of smoke; entire building did in fact. Room had peeling wall paint and the whole place just felt sketchy. I went back to the lobby checked out after literally 20 minutes, stayed down the street at a different chain instead.
