MOXY Minneapolis Uptown
"We've stayed at The Moxy several times before this trip, and while overall, much was the same, it just seemed to lack a bit of the overall fun vibe it previously had. Staff was friendly, but room was missing the guitar, clock radio, etc., and the bar closes much earlier than it used to."

Wyndham Bloomington - Mall of America
"They have a 24 hour shuttle service, my room was clean. I only spent 1 night there for travel transit. Breakfast doesn't have hot options beware. Lots of construction/renovation going on at the time of my stay. Ice machine on my floor was broken."

Great Wolf Lodge Bloomington
"Super family friendly and amazing staff which is likely why it was SO BUSY. The pools being close back to back due to it needing to be cleaned was a little annoying but they did offer an extension to their hours because of it. Overall worth the money"
