Rooms could use a good disinfecting. I wear my socks on the floor and had to bleach them when I got home. That shouldn’t happen in a two day stay.

Had to call maintenance to fix TV. No good directions to public parking lot and parked in a different parking lot. At least water in the lobby but they should offer free coffee in the lobby in the morning. Front desk was not overly friendly.

Worry free stay!
Very nice hotel and convenient location next to Mayo Clinic. Walkable. Valet parking was used as we came in late and no parking in the lot was available, so we greatly appreciated the service. I had an appointment at 11:00 AM and checkout was at noon. We were able to secure our luggage and leave our vehicle parked until after my appointment which was late afternoon. VERY CONVENIENT! Thank you for going above and beyond to make sure our stay was good and the fact that we didn’t have to worry about anything else other than my appointment.

One night stay.
My room was freezing. I called the front desk twice and after over two hours I had to go downs to complain in person. They switched me to another room. That room was also cold but after an hour I could at least feel it warming up. After that it was pleasant.

I like the proximity , convenience, & walking distance to the Mayo Clinic I love the pool and hot tub. I love that Ruth's Chris Steakhouse is on your lower level Lobby now That was a nice surprise. I did not like the smaller rooms I did like the price of the rooms. They were clean. Also check-in was a breeze

The biggest downfall was the noise from the heating ac units located on the outside of the building it was noticeable all night long, making it difficult to sleep. I would suggest that if you are staying aak for a room facing the street might not be as loud, other then that all seemed ok
