Top St. Olaf College Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn Savage - Bloomington West

6/10 Okay

"Everything else was very nice and well taken care of. The breakfast was amazing and more than I thought it would be. My biggest and main issue, which the staff did try to help with and eventually hotel.com had to help with was that people were smoking marijuana mostly on the second floor and it wasn’t just a little bit. It was very, very strong. It was so strong. It was giving us a headache. Myself and my children all have issues with asthma and none of us like smoke at all. I know that the hotel was fully booked that weekend and the staff did try to help but I know there was not much they could do. I know it’s also legal in that state but the signs do say No Smoking so it’s something that I think should be looked into and enforced. Especially since we know the room next-door to us was smoking a lot, and we tried to open the windows to clear out the air, but they probably had their windows open because it kept wafting in besides coming through the walls which made all of us sick and we literally could get high for how much we were breathing in. I don’t think that’s right for little kids which they did also have in the room but also for us and again not to mention, these are supposed to be non-smoking rooms."

LivINN Hotel Minneapolis South / Burnsville

6/10 Okay

"This is my second time staying in this hotel And We booked 3 rooms. My fist stay is fine no complaints. But this time I was so disappointed. Stayed 3 nights. They didn’t clean our room, when you ask them to clean they said they are busy. You have to go to reception to get your towels, toilet paper, shampoo. I went down to get coffee and the coffee pot is already empty and the girl from the reception said she still have to make and I have to wait for 10 minutes. So I just end up making my coffee in our room. I thought it would be easier to get coffee downstairs because it’s already made and will save them from cleaning the coffee maker. "

Prime Rate Inn

2/10 Terrible

"The Prime Rate Inn remains the worst hotel or motel stay in decades, this from a very experienced traveler. The Inn is rundown, with shoddy worn out furniture, that connects with travelling contractors and homeless people with low standards. The front desk is surrounded by plastic, to address security concerns. You'll notice the smell of mold, covered by cleaning chemicals upon entry. Rooms have poor accommodations, with cheap towels and plastic cups and noisy old window units. The pool is a leftover from when this may have been a decent '70's family oriented venue. While the price was relatively low, it was comparable to peer hotels in much better condition. It was noisy at night with contractors drinking in the parking lot. The staff was powerless and there was no manager on site past 4:30. "Breakfast" was burnt coffee and Twinkie donuts or instant cocoa. I would not have been surprised to see hourly rates for "entertainers." While I could go on, the message is simple - avoid the Prime Rate Inn unless you enjoy squalor. It is a small step above sleeping on the street (which is clearly one source of the clientele)"

Mystic Lake Casino Hotel

8/10 Good

"The property is undergoing renovations - so it was quite congested at the front desk. It took over 40 minutes to get checked in. Cleanliness is ok at this property, lots of cigarette butts outside, the smell of pot smokers is annoying and disgusting as well. I did enjoy the overall vibe of decor in the room, however some basic maintenance could be completed - our shower handle came off twice, thankfully it just popped back on. The walls are extremely thin and you can hear anyone talking in the hallway. We stayed in the Promenade Tower King Room - for $270 we expected much more than we received. Food was decent at one of the two restaurants that we tried while there. Value was good for food. Drinks at the concert were a decent price point as well. Concert was PHENOMENAL - The accoustics and seats were very good. I will go here for another concert but probably would not stay overnight again."
