This is a small Motel in MINNEAPOLIS, MN but it sure delivers a great value for the price. We use a coupon rate per night and it was just what I expected. No frills, but comfortable and clean. The rooms were spacious. The staff at the Motel were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely choose this Motel again for... More

This was just a terrible place. I booked it because of the great location near the light rail stop. It was very hard to find, however. "Fortunately" the toilet exploded and I didn't have to stay. I found another place with a huge breakfast bar and pool for the same price. See my picture of the step up to the... More

The one gentleman stated it right "broken English". But it more than a simple communication issue; the new owners lack courtesy, professionalism and cleanliness. I seen cockroaches in the lobby and in the bathroom. Unfortunately it was too late to get another place for us. Best Advice: Stay away from this one! P.S. I cant help but see trpadvisor receiving...

The rate was not as advertised and was too high for what the hotel is. It is in an... More

My husband, 6 year old daughter and I stayed at this hotel for four nights while visiting family in the area and really enjoyed our stay.
