When we arrived, there was a large sign announcing they were in the process of upgrading the rooms. There were some new mirrors and art in the rooms but the walls still needed repainting, which had absolutely no effect on our comfort during our stay. We stayed over a Friday-Saturday night and the hotel was definitely busy but our rooms... More

We stayed on a Friday-Sunday. Right away we saw a sign apologizing, but they were in the middle of upgrading the rooms. There were new pictures/mirrors in the room, but the place still needed painting and carpet. Didn't bother us at all. We had a microwave and mini-fridge in the room. Breakfast was good; waffle maker, plus french toast, eggs,... More

I booked this on Hotwire. It was listed as a 3 star hotel. Of course I was a little surprised that after I paid it was a Country Inn but the way hotels are remodeling...maybe it was nice. No...it's not. The girl who checked me in has no business being in customer service as she acted like it was an... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a week while visiting the Mayo Clinic. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and fairly nice (our room contained 2 televisions, a sitting area, king sized bed, mini refrigerator, and a microwave), and the breakfast was much more than expected. The shuttle was a nice free option to go to Mayo,... More

I stayed overnight here because I had an appointment at the mayo clinic. I thought the lobby was very nice and the staff was very friendly. The hotel was kind of hard to get to you need to take two exits and a back road to get to it. It was very confusing . When we did get into our... More

It was a Carlson Country Inn & Suites, they are all pretty much the same. Couple of comments on my stay: inconvenient location in an Industrial park. If you are coming to the property from the north you drive by it and then have to circle back around to access it. Only one bar/restaurant close by, everything else is 2-3... More

We recently stayed at this facility for a family celebration for our 8 year old (for a medical condition that he overcame). We were so disappointed to find this hotel lacking in many areas. We got a great deal on our room so we think the price was right, but we were surprised that it had a 2.5 star rating.... More

This was a two night stay. The staff is the best thing about the facility. The two main problems involve the location and room cleanliness. The hotel is right off of us-52, but to get to it you have to drive about a mile out of the way cause there is no exact road that leads directly to it. It's... More
