At these prices, one cannot expect too much; but this motel seems to be in search of its identity. Marvelously located on the light rail line and close to the park, relatively easy vehicle access, and overall fairly clean. There are signs that management has made improvements, such as a brand new shower control valve in the room and a new bathroom door. Yet, the entryway is piled full of boxes and bags and lawn care tools; the light switch is filthy, the lamp shade is torn, the new bathroom door has not been finished, and the walls have been patched with the skill of a four year old. Check-in is conducted through bullet-proof glass, but the neighborhood didn't seem that bad-it may be improving since there is a major apartment complex being constructed next door. There was a fridge and microwave in the room. Bed was comfortable and clean, AC worked better than in some expensive hotels. I would probably stay here again since the flaws are mostly cosmetic.…

we chose the Snelling Motel as it was close to the Minneapolis/StPaul airport. It turned out to be easy to find, quiet, beautifully renovated room. The location is right on the Metro, near a VA hospital, and convenient to route 55. Since the motel is obviously undergoing rennovations, it was not too busy, and we had an easy drive to a lovely restaurant nearby and an easy ride to the airport at 3 am. It is a small motel, so there was not a congestion going in and out of the parking lot.

Our room was comfortable, very nice, and the couple at the desk were so friendly and helpful. No extras that we were aware of, but a nice place to stay. Would have enjoyed a continental breakfast but did not see that anywhere.

Stayed here while undergoing medical evaluation at the VA which is very close-walking distance. Very clean place with comfortable beds. Absolutely no frills-a basic clean room. We had a flat screen TV-nice-fridge and microwave which worked out fine for us. Our heater would not hold temp but we made it okay. Our room was recently remodeled with new carpet and appears -beds. It still needed touch up paint and some pix or something on the walls. The owners are super nice and very customer focused. No restaurants real close or groceries but its all doable. Again-the place is nice and clean.
