This hotel is located directly between two prison release half way houses and one homeless shelter. This hotel has NO security system, NO exterior key card entries, nor a video surveillance system.
During a recent stay, my property was stolen from my room (by a intruder) while the houskeeper was cleaning the room. The hotels insurance company "The Hanover Insurance Co." denied my claim. They stated the hotel was not liable.
Do not stay here and definitely do not leave loved ones or propery at this hotel.
If you must stay here- Refuse daily maid service.

Great great hotel. Spotless, old outside, new inside! We got the corner room w/two rooms! A bedroom w/two comfortable queen beds, 3 pillows on each, tv, nice bathroom, huge shower. Then an adjoined sitting room w/a hide-a-bed couch and table and chairs, tv here too, sink and refrigerator. Coffee maker in the room also. They have a nice restaurant on the main floor that made breakfast convenient. Good service and delicious food. Everything was reasonable! Parking only $7 a day too. Fantastic. Thank you Joseph, (at the front desk) very professional. We loved our stay and will come here again.

Stayed there while attending concert in downtown Minneapolis. Room was clean, modern and spacious. Staff were friendly and hotel had nice layout. Only complaint was $7 charge for parking that gets assigned to your credit card (I'm sure it's in the fine print somewhere but staff could also mention it to avoid a surprise).

They also provided a shuttle from Hotel to Target Center...much appreciated!

My wife and I stayed here on 27 and 28 September 2012 on a Cosmos bus tour from New York to Los Angeles. We loved this place with its old style elegance at an affordable price. It feels like a well maintained boutique hotel, not part of any chain. We had a large, well appointed room with two double beds, and everything worked well.
We spent some time just sitting in the lobby and other public areas just soaking up the atmosphere. There is a nice indoor pool with an atrium, and there is a small freezer cabinet in the reception area stocked with fruit juice, yoghurt etc, so we didn't have to go out to buy drinks and snacks.
We would stay here again and spend more time exploring the downtown area.
