I had a mix of experiences during my stay. The hotel's location is pretty convenient for visits to the Mayo Clinic, which is great for patients. But, I encountered issues with cleanliness and service that left me disappointed overall.

The staff was sometimes helpful, but the service was inconsistent. There were long check-in lines, and at one point, there was only one person at the front desk. I also felt that my requests for a room change due to mobility issues were overlooked.
