Kyle, Saint Louis Park

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
I think this place desperately needs to replace their door lock system, and to more fully staff their front desk. The keycards to our doors stopped working multiple times, which caused us to have to go to the front desk. There was usually one person working the front desk, with a long line (not a fun thing to wait in at 11pm). When asking for a new keycard, they never confirmed our identity (any of the times we went to get a new card) with the exception of one time (remember, the key cards stopped working many times). So, this made us concerned for the security and safety of the place. The hotel it self was fine, and I would only suggest staying here is funds are low and their price point is low. Also, I have not received an itemized receipt and was charged some things twice, so now I need to investigate to make sure I was properly charged. In short, this place was more work than it was relaxing.

Wouldn't say it was a great place to stay for the price. Room wasn't very clean. AC never really got cold. Was noisey in the morning with traffic and a parking lot right outside the window. Parking across the street costs an additional $19. Overall just lacked amenities for the cost.

Parking across the street with no real close crosswalk is a pain, and unsafe for older folks. It's also ridiculous to pay for parking on top of a room. Average hotel. Not amazingly clean, but not filthy. The price is good to be in that area, and it's located an 8 minute walk from the Arena.

What does the Plus stand for?

I understand most red roofs don't offer breakfast. Howvever, this was a red roof+ and did not serve breakfast. The plus usually indicates more to offer and was no more than the basic red roof.
