The Hotel looked awesome from the outside and had a beautiful lobby, but both of the rooms we stayed in had several maintenance issues - closet doors that came off their tracks, a broken bed frame, a security lock almost falling off the wall. They were quick to try to help (offered to move us), but the issues seemed to... More

We stayed over night at this hotel because it was close to a wedding reception that we attended. It was in middle of an industrial area so it's not super easy to get to, but it was very nice. The room was big and the bed was really comfortable. The hotel had been recently renovated so everything was new and... More

The Ramada Plaza was a surprise. I reserved a room through a reduced-price website, which sometimes means a gamble. I was gratified, then, when I arrived at a clean, well-maintained, well-appointed hotel with a spacious room and all the amenities a business traveler might need. Staff were courteous and helpful without overdoing it. The lobby was a model of usefulness... More

I came to Minneapolis for a stay to explore the Twin Cities and decided to choose to stay here because of some reviews I've read about how nice this place was. Boy, did I make a mistake. My time there was nothing issues after another. When we first arrive, the lady at the front desk was very nice and polite... More

We stayed here for 2 nights while visiting our son who attends college in St. Paul. Everything was top notch! Professional, friendly front desk staff, room was clean, comfortable, and very spacious. Had a great sleep on comfortable beds. Will definitely stay here again. Also location is very convenient for hopping on expressway and getting to the cities. More

Stayed here to avoid staying at the pricier downtown hotels while in town for a concert at First Avenue. Shuttle service to downtown, but we kind of had to hassle them about it, since the lady attending the desk never communicated to the driver that she'd made arrangements with us to leave at 9 PM. Also, inconsistent service. We were... More

I stayed at this Ramada while I was in Minneapolis for a conference. The on-campus hotels were much pricier and the accommodations were not any better, just more expensive. This hotel is a quick drive to campus and there's also a free shuttle service (although you have to book your trips on it in advance). The drivers are quite pleasant.... More

For my purposes it was in a convenient location, was clean and had the basics for a comfortable night stay. I would agree with the other reviewer regarding the old school in wall heater/ac being a little touchy, but overall not a concern. Had small issue at check-in with my prepayment through a 3rd party, but this was resolved. Thankfully... More

Thank you for your review. We are also glad we were able to resolve your check-in issue quickly and efficiently. You mentioned that the check-in desk could use a rehab. We hear you. Plans are in the works to redesign the front desk to make it easier to check-in and out. It should be complete by early spring 2012. Thanks... More

Great location for either Mpls or St Paul. Easy to get to either downtown without the hassle of the 494 strip or actually being downtown. Hotel is an old Hilton that is was taken over by Ramada. It's going through a nice renovation and has very nice amenities. More
