"The motel room was OK, but I had trouble increasing the temperature. The bathroom sink didn't drain. No on-site restaurant.2022-09-18"
"This motel has declined in upkeep and cleanliness. The room had stains, the outlets were dusty, and there was mold in the bathtub. Find a better option.2022-08-22"
"I expected better for the price. The SWAT team was at the motel looking for a possible suspect, and guests weren't provided any information. I didn't feel safe with the way the situation was handled. Not enough breakfast food for guests the 1st day. There was enough food the 2nd day, but it wasn't good. The day I checked out, a housekeeper came in the room despite the Do Not Disturb sign on the door. The checkout clerk didn't ask how my stay was. No consistent shuttle to Mall of America. Poor service overall.2022-08-06"
"Easy access to the freeway, and right across the street from Mall of America. The room was extremely clean, and included a full-sized fridge and dishwasher. The hotel staff was friendly and welcoming. Plentiful restaurant options in the area.2022-05-17"
"This is one of the best hotels I've stayed in for a long time. Great location, and there was a shuttle to Mall of America with nice drivers. The room was spacious and met my expectations. The staff was friendly. Breakfast was far better than average. If you want a top-quality hotel, stay here.2021-09-27"
"I loved this hotel. The front desk clerks were so nice and helpful. This is the place to stay.2021-03-10"
"The hotel was nice, and the breakfast was amazing. Unfortunately, the front desk clerks were short and acted like we were bothering them when we asked for shuttle information and the Internet password. If you want great customer service, stay somewhere else.2019-02-26"
"A good hotel experience. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was professional, kind, and helpful. Average food. The only bad thing was that we didn't want to leave.2015-12-28"

"This was our best hotel stay in quite a while. We were so comfortable. When the check-in clerk found out it was my husband's birthday, she upgraded our room and handed us snacks and bottled water.

"Close to the mall and IKEA. The hotel was in need of renovation and a good cleaning. It smelled musty and like stale smoke. The AC in my room didn't work well, and the coffee maker was missing a part. There were multiple spiders in the room. The bathroom door wouldn't close, and there was mold on the wall. There was a $25 pet fee. Limited breakfast. Don't park near the trees unless you want bird poop all over your vehicle. Keep your expectations low and you'll be fine.2022-09-12"
"My non-smoking room smelled like smoke, and the counter wasn't clean. The hotel had 2 great things going for it: the friendly and helpful reception staff, and a better grab and go breakfast than most, with variety and healthy options. The common areas could've been cleaner, and the hallways needed vacuuming. The floor in the breakfast area was sticky.2021-10-06"
"The beds were clean and comfortable, but the bathroom was a bit outdated and the floor wasn't clean. There were some cars full of junk in the back parking lot. Don't stay at this hotel.2019-11-18"
"Convenient location if you want to shop at the Mall of America. The entire hotel smelled great, and every employee was professional and friendly.2018-12-06"
"The motel was shabby, and the elevator was filthy. The bedsheets were torn, the beds were skimpy and lumpy, and the floor was uncarpeted linoleum that seemed institutional. The AC was noisy. The bathroom mirror frame was veneer, and it was torn. The balcony doors were permanently locked, so there was no access to fresh air. No airport shuttle. If you enjoy a clean, safe environment and nice appearance, don't stay here.2023-07-18"

I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
