The hotel and room is fine, it was odd they asked me if I wanted to upgrade for an additional price. I agreed, then I noticed a form sitting on the desk. The next day, the plumbing would be turned off. No shower or no bathroom service from 10 am to noon. Check out was noon. So no swimming in morning. No sleeping in if you needed a shower. I was shocked. If you need to cancel basic needs like plumbing, maybe upgrades should be complimentary for the inconvenience!

I booked a room here for a weekend away with my wife using Priceline. My criteria was a 4-1/2 star hotel in downtown. I paid $110. The location is pretty good on Nicollet Mall with lots of shopping, bars and restaurants within walking distance. The staff was friendly. The decor of the entire hotel feels cheesy and not at all upscale. It appears that they tried but missed the mark. Our room was clean but definitely nothing special. We did upgrade for a room that overlooked the City. That was worth the $10 up-charge. The TV did not have HD which surprised me. Everywhere you go has HD except this place. We forgot to bring a bottle of wine and an average bottle through their room service was $35. No thanks, I walked the 2 blocks to the local liquor store. The lobby and commons area was overrun by highschool girls in town for some convention. I would not stay here again if looking for a romantic getaway with my wife. If you're looking for an "ok" place to stay while traveling for business this may work. It's definitely not a 4-1/2 star hotel though.

meh..... thats what comes to mind when i think about this hotel, it wasn't terrible but it wasn't great but at only 64 dollars per night thanks to hotwire it is still a solid but bland choice. We stayed in a room on the 19th floor and we're told it would have a nice view but it was facing south and the only view was of the freeway and nicolet ave. They recently remodeled the rooms and they look like ikea decorated them but everything seems a bit low quality. The bed was pretty comfortable and the room was clean but where one of the bedside laps was supposed to be there was just a couple of holes in the wooden headboard and on the other side the lamp was present it just didnt work. They have cable TV which we were looking forward too since we are cord cutters at home but it's wasn't really cable it was only a couple of news channels discovery and espn, which did not go over so well with my wife she likes and was looking forward to watching tlc, food network, history ect. The staff seemed pleasant but not helpful i never did get a working lamp in our room durring the 2 nights we were there. We ordered room service and my advice to anyone I'd order the kids meals even if you're an adult they are literally the same size and half price for room service I ordered the adult quarter chicken dinner and my wife got the kids steak, she got the same size portions I got with my meal and a side salad for 9 dollars less. All in all would I stay here again? no. If you're looking to stay downtown its not a bad place but i enjoyed the food and service at Graves 601 and the downtown Westin a lot more. hope this review helps someone out there!

I wasn't disappointed but wasn't excited either. Seemed the ikea decor just didn't hit it. Lastly the room was slightly chilly which included the bathroom floor and took awhile to warm up. The food was good and room was clean. Overpriced for the executive sweet.

Super nice hotel with great accommodation. Rooms were very clean and modern. Great stay and highly recommended.
