You get what you pay for
Room 209 was clean enough. Not spotless. Needs some repairs in the shower. Maybe a nice shower head would be an upgrade too.
The pullout couch was a must for our 5th family member, however it was hurry rigged with automotive tie downs and unable to be used as such. We took the foam “mattress” off, doubled it over on the floor with a sheet on it and my son was able to sleep like that.
The pool was very small. Kudos to their marketing team for making it seem bigger in pictures.
The front desk staff, especially Josh, were very nice and kindly helped with all our needs.
The breakfast was about what one expects from most continental types so eat out or bring cereal.
It is close to a lot of restaurants and fast food. We were there for Mall of America and it was quick and easy to get there and back.
Overall, you get what you pay for…

Executive suite’s review!
It was a great stay, I live in a neighboring city next to grand stay and this was my first experience there.. the room was the best I’ve been in in years. And I’m not the type of guy to even leave reviews but yeah the room I had was great! Highly recommend the executive suites! Staff was great and the place was low key and quiet and classy. Plus the breakfast was pretty good as well

Great
I love how affordable and big the room was! the bed was comfortable too. The only downside is the wood floors so the second a guest was put above me it was so loud and hard to fall asleep.

Hotel was clean, bed was comfortable but pillows are usually too big. Hotels should have a variety but they don't so, that's why I bring my own.

Very nice staff
Service was great! Everyone working there was friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be the bathroom in our room. The toilet and shower were not clean. There was a ton of dust along the top of the shower and the toilet had a black/brown ring around the top of the bowl

Best hotel of the whole trip
I am so happy we found this place! Spotless room. Bed was just the right amount of soft but supportive. Super convenient location. Staff was friendly and attentive.
And the best part… we stayed in a suite with a full kitchen for the cost I would have expected to pay for a fleabag hotel.

Nice place, will stay here again.
Room was chilly and they didnt have enough extra blankets - had already handed out what they had available, so we weren't the only ones feeling this! Just used my coat!!

Nice stay
Very nice room, spacious, clean. Good location. We did not eat the complimentary breakfast as it was all carbs--no protein.
