Check-in was time consuming, I was told the computer system was old. Everything was satisfactory. Each time I made a request like a king size bed, Internet, or fridge, I was quoted a price. I'm not sure why 4 star hotels give you much less than lower star hotels. Anyway the rooms were large and the maid smiled so it was pleasant.

I am here for a conference and had my iPad stolen from my room that was in my suitcase. Security said it was because I didn't put it in the safe in our room. The only ones in our room was the 3 of us and housekeeping. So frustrated and pissed!

The Hilton in downtown Minneapolis is a beautiful property, staffed by nice people. Upon arrival, I found that they didn't have the room I purchased available, so they offered to make one up for me, which would take 2 + hours. They gave us an interim room, which was nice enough, with a sweet view, so we unpacked and stayed. The room was not as clean as I would have wished, but it was passable. The beds were comfortable, and the floor, quiet. The workout area is unsurpassed, and the pool, very nice. The jacuzzi, clean and hot. The area is so convenient, just blocks from grocery and department stores, church, night clubs and dinner clubs. Overall, a lovely experience.

Sidenote: One way in which all hotels could make the stays more enjoyable, is to have larger televisions, with more gratis channels. Most people these days have massive entertainment systems at home, and hate to find a lesser experience on vacation.

The hotel is centrally located and it has many restaurant options at walking distance. The room was clean and quite large (junior suite) with big windows and great view. The restroom was small compared to the room.
The air/heat system is noisy.
The breakfast in the executive floor lounge is nothing at all. I would say it's at the same level as the hampton inn.
Staff was nice and helpful.
