"Walking distance to the mall of America. Can catch the blue line at Mall of America and it will bring you to the us bank stadium for the football game for only $4 return. I liked that items were labeled in the breakfast with gluten free items available."

Hampton Inn Suites Minneapolis St Paul Arpt-Mall of America

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The breakfast was a real treat, offering many options. We plan to stay here in the future when visiting the area. We forgot to get our clothes from the closet at check out, and upon leaving, the receptionist was kind enough to walk back to our room with us to unlock the door. She did not act like we were putting her out, even though she was very busy at that moment. I'm sorry, but I did not think to get her name. We checked out at 7:45 on Sunday, October 4th."
