Ya, the pool area is 24 hours but they need to clean the leaves out of the outside part of the pool. The hottub is actually too hot. The hotel looks like it is from the 70's, as did our room furniture. LOL, we opened the door and my husband's first words were ""we are not staying here again"". And all we did was open the door to our room after walking to it. :) The bed was comfortable and the bathroom counter was spacious. The railing on our second floor room balcony was actually loose. The continental breakfast was a laugh. I work overnights at a hotel and set up our own...that was not a continental breakfast, it was a carb fest with only carbs. The waffles, ok, they have waffles, but isn't it unsanitary to have a tub of butter (I don't know who the heck might have stuck their unwashed fingers in there). They may have ""updated"" the idea of a continental breakfast from 15 years ago by adding cranberry juice (which was a nice surprise, not many places think about that), but what about yogurt, hard-boiled eggs or fruit? Granted it was a weekday, maybe they have that on weekends but if they do, why only weekends?\r

The staff...well, when we checked in, the girl was wearing a top that would not have been allowed at an hotel I have ever worked at. Guess being a female, I'm just not interested in another girl's cleavage being exposed to the point of too much.\r

I'm sorry, but I would not recommend this to anyone I know heading to the Twin Cities. I've stayed at better that were ""just"" a place to rest my head.
