Not the most exciting hotel in the world, but it's within walking distance of much of downtown and is very reasonably priced (except for the restaurant). Very odd layout, so you have to be sure you're finding the right elevator for your room number; do this before hauling your luggage around for less hassle. In-and-out parking very cheap. Free wifi...

This is such a great hotel and conveniently located downtown to many venues. They offer free shuttle service to many locations including the Twins games! The only negative critique was the bartender who seemed like he couldn't wait to have his patrons leave at the 11 pm! bar closing time. I highly recommend this Best western hotel.

From the moment you enter the doors of this hotel you feel the quality of workmanship and care they take to preserve it's heritage. A spacious hallway with gleaming slate floors leads the the front desk area. The photos framed over the front desk area chronicle the rich history of the establishment.

Great kitschy place. Nice clean room. Great price. Comfy mattresses and we slept wonderfully. Plus, we ordered a couple Henry IIX Burgers from room service and it was relaxing. Free parking is good in downtown Mpls. Easy to get in and out!

This hotel has clearly been recently upgraded. It is very clean and the decor is wonderful! It took a little bit to figure out the lay of the land, but it was fun exploring. Mike and Bonnie are spectacular innkeepers! They obviously care deeply about the hotel and the restaurant. Don't skip the restaurant...not your normal hotel restaurant. I recommend... More
