5.0/10

My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing. Despite the convenient location near the main street, shopping plaza, and convention center, the service was terrible. From a general manager blaming me for technical issues to a night manager causing a scene, I felt unwelcome and mistreated. The room service and dinner menu were overpriced, and the staff's attitude towards guests of color was unacceptable. I would not recommend this hotel based on my negative experience.

Rooms

7.0

Although my room was on the 3rd floor, the redone bathroom with a walk-in 'rain' shower was a highlight. However, the room felt a bit like a porta potty.

Service

5.0

The customer service was deplorable, with the general manager and night manager behaving rudely and causing unnecessary conflicts. It felt like guests were not valued or respected.

Location

5.0

Despite being close to various attractions like the US Bank stadium, the staff's behavior overshadowed the convenient location. The hotel had potential, but the unprofessionalism of the team dampened the experience.

Dining

While The Hen House Eatery down the block offered quality and generous portions, the hotel's room service and dinner menu were disappointing and overpriced.
