I heard good things about this new hotel in Minneapolis. Booked a mid-level room for an introductory price. Once I arrived it seemed they had plenty of rooms, despite the fact that the front desk had told me they were close to full. I liked the first room they gave me but because I was told I would have something facing the street when I made the reservation, I called the front and they moved me to a great suite. I liked a lot about this property but I felt they still had some kinks to work out. For example, the room wasn't kept as clean as should have been, there were no robes and the anxious maid service called the room to inquire when I would be leaving for the day. Room service was okay. An order of an egg white omelet resulted in a mass of runny whites that had to be sent back. No offer was made to take the breakfast off the bill. When I inquired at the front desk I was asked "if I was ever coming back" before they took half the charge off. The whole process seemed a little rinky dink for a hotel with such lofty aspirations. I would try this property again but I would hope that the service would match the impressive design and decor.

My fiance and myself usually stay at "W" hotels but decided to look into the chambers seeing that it was being build right down the street from where we live. We had a romantic night in one of the mid-level rooms. The bed, as usually in botique hotel rooms, was amazing. The shower was pretty cool. As far as the bathroom goes, it looked nice, but with all of the tiles it gets a bit slippery after you take a shower.
The valet lost our car. (took them over an hour and they said they would comp us... they didn't)
The lobby lounge was nice, our server was new, so she was a bit slow. But that is understandable. The resturant had excellent food.. however they were over an hour late on our reservatoni. They gave us a free round of drinks.... but I have a feeling they don't have a logical hierarchy of power simply because 4 different people (the waitress to the manager) told us we are getting free drinks.
After dinner we went to the "club" upstairs and we were greated by a very odd neon sign that says something along the lines of "United $%king States of America" Seriously!? The room looked like a disco and not a nice lounge bar. They need to figure out a darker color scheme upstairs cause I seiriously felt like I was in a wanna be club in the midwest..... ohh wait I was.
Overall. nice hotel. Next time I think I will stay that the Graves 601 nearby.
