5.0/10

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. Despite the convenient location for the MN Vikings Training Camp and being close to the Mankato Rib Fest & Dwight Yoakam Concert, I found it a hassle to access. The rooms had a very strong chlorine smell from being over the pool, which was unpleasant, and the cleanliness left much to be desired. On the bright side, the dining options were good, and the facilities were decent.

6.4/10

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room lacked a lock on the window, but it had a nice view facing the pool area which was both a pool and a gathering spot. The tub surround needed attention. The service was hit or miss, with the staff allowing a fun pizza party but lacking professionalism in other areas. The location was still nice but with some disappointments in timing. The dining was complimentary but fell short on quality. Overall, the facilities were decent but could use some improvement.
