Didn’t like that the window was a view to the conference area and was not a window facing outside. The hotel was clean and quiet and it was close to our concert venue.

Able to check in early for a nominal fee. Staff very friendly. Being a VIP Expedia customer meant receiving a $15 credit with the Wood Paddle eatery attached to the hotel. Food was really good, along with service. Room good sized and beds very comfortable. Makes me sad to be here just one night. Convenient to walk to Target Center for a Timberwolf game.
