"It’s nothing special. It’s like being in an upgraded hospital room. They charge you a $50 incidental fee for I don’t know what?

"Room was fine. Comfy bed. Pool area was a disaster. Took the kids down there for a morning swim and it had not been cleaned from the night before.

"The good: Clean room, comfortable bed, very kind staff, great breakfast, convenient parking garage. The bad: Wall outlets in the room were all very loose and nothing would stay plugged in (the weight of the plug would cause it to fall out).

"Very close with to Mayo Clinic with parking, yet reasonably priced. Which was our main priority. Only complaints were the loud AC unit, that we just unplugged while sleeping. And could not figure out what shows were playing on TV channels. Next time we will have to ask the front desk."
