I really liked the railroad theme and someone did a nice job renovating this old building 20 some years ago, but it is really looking down at the heels. Our room was large and the beds were fine, but it was not clean. Dirty scuffed up walls, a divider wall that was so dirty it was sticky to touch, etc.... more

We stayed at the Best Western Bandana Square Hotel in St. Paul, MN for only one night. We attended a concert at the Excel Center. We had an excellent stay. Our room was nice with a refrigerator and microwave. Not sure if all rooms have this but I believe it is available on request. The bed was very comfortable. The... more

This hotel sounds like it would be great, but they don't have a heating/air conditioning system that functions - I mean, no air comes out. Our room was at least 80 degrees, despite the fan that we were loaned. The staff was kind, but there was nothing they could do. How can you have a hotel with no air system,... more

My husband chose this particular location as it was conveniently located to his nearby training session and because it has a train theme for me, the family train buff. On the positive side, let me begin by saying that the room itself was nice enough and certainly a good value for the money. The housekeeping staff were friendly and kept... more

We stayed there recently and you can clearly see there is potential in the facility, but that the current management doesn't have much interest in bringing that potential to the surface. Maintenance is clearly not a priority. The room's ventilation system howled and whined 24-hours a day. The thermostat had been punished by a previous guest and no longer functioned.... more

I've actually stayed at this hotel twice.... Once back in 2006 with a bunch of guys on a hockey trip. The hotel was perfect for us... cheap, clean, pool, good breakfast and just down the road from a bar that had a shuttle to the XCel Center. My second trip I brought the girlfriend and two kids (9 and 3).... more

When we checked into the hotel we were infomed that our room was one flight up and to the left. No elevator! No one to carry our bags. When I asked about the pool the desk clerk wasn't sure if there was a pool. i had looked at the hotel online and knew more about the place than the desk... more

My teen daughter and I stayed here while on a college visiting trip to nearby Macalester College. Overall, I'd have to say the hotel was probably better than what I'd expected of a Best Western -- decent room, relatively clean, mattresses were fine, and our evenings quiet. I will also echo other reviewers who praised the hotel's continental breakfast. It... more

They allowed me to check in early, at noon instead of 3 pm. I asked for a non-smoking room & was told that the rooms usually booked on Hotwire are smoking but she did give me a non-smoking room since one was available. I got the attitude of since I booked on Hotwire at a discount rate, I should not... more

This is a unique best western. I stayed here to go to a concert with a friend. The room was nice and had modern furniture and clean carpet. The bathrrom was updated but the floor needed some cleaning. There was mildew all along the baseboard in the bathroom and lots of dust in the corners. The theme is pretty neat.... more
