The good: The staff was quite friendly, overall, and quite accommodating. There was a free shuttle to the mall and airport. If you ask nicely, the free shuttle will take you elsewhere locally also. The bad: The hotel is in desperate need of refurbishing. The hallway walls were quite dirty. The tables in the lobby were filthy (caked up filth... more

I booked this hotel on hotwire for $39.00 a night. Knowing that i booked at this great price was the main thing that made our stay acceptable. if i had paid a full rack rate for this hotel I would have been unhappy.

Booked this hotel on Priceline for $40 and was somewhat worried after reading other reviews. My worries were unfounded, this place is a hidden gem! Right off the freeway and only a few miles from the Mall of America. Not the most scenic neighborhood, but the hotel and rooms were awesome! Our room looked recently remodeled and the beds were... more

We stayed here Feb 18, after booking a room for one night through Hotwire. I was nervous about the room after reading the reviews, but it was fine. We were on the 4th floor and it was very quiet.

I stay at Holiday Inn Expresses frequently (like their rewards program.) Compared to other HIE's this one is average to somewhat below average. The 2005 update someone else mentioned brought them the nicer bedding, towels, curve-out shower curtain, etc that are the standard HIE setup. The bathroom was nicely updated, bed was comfortable, no really bad wear/tear on the room.... more

We got 2 nights for 2 rooms on Hotwire for $42 per room per night. Front desk staff very friendly. Always like it when they call after several minutes to make sure the room is ok, which they did. They gave us nice, adjoining rooms so the two teenage girls could be close, but not "too close." Plus side -... more

I booked this hotel on price line for $40 dollars. I would be very upset if we would have paid more. I was shocked to read that the hotel had been updated in 2005. I am not sure what was updated then its very hard to tell. We waited in a long line to be checked in. The man at... more
