“Convenient and comfortable!”

We had a very lovely stay for one night. We came into town early to beat a snow storm and booked this hotel last minute. I've stayed here before about 10 years ago and it was just as great as before!

We had a very lovely stay for one night. We came into town early to beat a snow storm and booked this hotel last minute. I've stayed here before about 10 years ago and it was just as great as before! The rooms were clean and the hotel was fairly quiet. Parking is convenient - ramp is quite close. Friendly front desk staff. The on site restaurant has changed to Wild Bills and was delicious. However, be sure to call down and make sure they are open. Sometimes if it's a quiet day they are closed, even on a Saturday lunch.

“Good location for Xcel Energy centre / arena”

This hotel is located across the street from Xcel Energy centre. I picked it for this reason, plus there was a parking package as an option.

This hotel is located across the street from Xcel Energy centre. I picked it for this reason, plus there was a parking package as an option. If you are going to an event at the arena this is a convenient option, however the price for the night of an event was about 2 1/2 times the price of the non event night. Arrival/ parking: you pull into the back of the hotel to park in a small area whilst you register. The parking garage they use can be accessed from this small lot, or from the street. You are given a ticket to scan to get in and out both on foot and for the vehicle. Check in/out: efficient and I got a quieter room as requested. The elevators are very efficient. Room: good size, clean, but dark. There were just 2 bedside lamps, a tiny desk lamp which was the light that came on when you turned on the light switch by the door, and a freestanding lamp tucked in one corner away from anywhere you might be. All the lights lit one tiny area around them, leaving the rest of the room dark. The bathroom had very bright lighting and this got left on more than it should to give more light to the rest of the room. Otherwise two comfortable beds, chair, desk, tv, small area with hangers, iron and board, fridge, drawers, coffee maker. No safe. Good WIFI. Bathroom: reasonable size, usual bathroom furniture. Hairdryer. Restaurant: attached to hotel, breakfast there both days was good, not a huge menu but most people would find something, staff were nice Vicinity: the area had a lot of restaurants, is busy a lot of the day and bustling if there is an event on at the arena. Overall, a convenient location, clean hotel with good service, but room was too dark and there needs to be a safe in the room.

“Convenient location, that’s about it”

Fast overnight stay for a concert at the Xcel event center. Convenient location for that; parking is connected, although it’s not super obvious and you drive right by it then have to circle around. Yes it’s a HI express and you don’t necessarily expect much, but good grief this hotel needs to be … lisää

Fast overnight stay for a concert at the Xcel event center. Convenient location for that; parking is connected, although it’s not super obvious and you drive right by it then have to circle around. Yes it’s a HI express and you don’t necessarily expect much, but good grief this hotel needs to be updated and cleaned. Front desk area is small with two stained chairs. Rooms are small, which was fine for our stay but you open the door and walk right into a bed (two queens, not sure about the king rooms). Drapes were stained and old. Bathroom is fine but still had garbage remnants in the corner and the top shelf with the hair dryer hadn’t been dusted in some time. I’m not saying that’s every room, but someone got lazy in this one. Anytime you see posts on social media about certain things that aren’t usually cleaned in hotel rooms (remotes, glasses, hair dryer), you should assume that to be true. Fine otherwise. No safe in the room. Beds are firm if you like that, like sleeping directly on the ground. Pillows are nice. Didn’t see the pool. Staff was very friendly. Wild Bill’s (bar/restaurant in the lobby). It’s nice to have something right there but once the event lets out and everyone goes to the bar, you’ll hear it all unless you’re in a higher room. We were on the 3rd floor and heard all the street level crowd noise - talking, yelling, and some d*psh*t at the bar on a bullhorn screaming at everyone. Not the hotel’s fault at all, but not easy to sleep through. TLDR; needs updated and cleaning. Higher rooms for no crowd noise. Beds are hard.
