Hotels near Centennial Lakes Farmers＇ Market in Hennepin County

Came for a conference in February and stayed at the hotel. At check-in, the woman who checked us in was unfriendly and made us feel like her face would break if she ever tried to smile. All I can say is stay away from this place in the winter unless you are a lizard and love hot temperatures. The rooms were literally 85 degrees and there is a sign next to the thermostat saying that in the wintertime the cooling is turned off so the only way to cool the rooms is to turn the heat/cooling unit’s power OFF and open a window. Well, the windows only open a total of 3 inches (the width of a cell phone max) and allows no breeze to come in. I ended up turning on the bathroom fan to try and pull some kind of air movement. You should not have to keep a wet washcloth next to the bed to wipe your body down to get some kind of evaporative cooling in the middle of winter when it’s 18 degrees outside, but 85 in the room at night. I rarely write a bad review for a hotel, but this was just one I need to warn others about. All of the other people from the conference who stayed there had the same stories about the temperatures of their rooms. So bad.

Hotel was very clean. Check in took a bit of time. We even came back @ 530 and there was still a long line. Front desk staff was friendly.

Platinum Elite/InterContinental Ambassador here. My review compares InterContinental, Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn stays….and the Mall of America is head and shoulders above the rest! Arranged and checked in online using App, and arrived early. Team recognized my status and gave me a spacious room without me begging!!! Room overlooked busy highway but barely noticeable. Sparkling clean throughout, huge well lit modern shower . Comfy bed. Great shuttle service! This hotel truly sets the standard for judging business stays! Thank you Team!

POSITIVE: This is my second time coming to this hotel for a convention. My first time here was quite pleasant. The staff were very kind and helpful. The room was tidy and clean. I love the fact that we have complimentary access to the athletic club. It's small but it was pretty nice and more substantial than other hotel fitness center I've seen (so far). The breakfast buffet was excellent! I do appreciate the fact that they let me check in as early as 10am because I overestimated how long it'll take to arrive from the airport! Check out also went pretty smoothy. I am an IHG rewards member so I got to checkout at 2pm, which was nice. NEGATIVE: My second visit was not so excellent, unfortunately. My card kept getting deactivated. Thankfully they were able to reactivate it quickly, but it has happened 3 times during my stay. This is more of a mild frustration: my friend also called in the day before we arrive to check if there were complimentary toothbrushes. Unfortunately when we arrived there were none. While it is a minor issue, I'm surprised they didn't check before telling us there were actually limited supplies or none at all. I'll just make sure to bring my own toothbrush to avoid this minor inconvenience in the future. VERY NEGATIVE: We had some unusually warm weather in Minneapolis where temps were up to the mid 80s. Unfortunately, they could not turn on the AC due to the building being old. I can understand the weather being unusually warm and not prepared, but what I do not appreciate was how the situation was handled. Fans were limited in supplies and people at the top floor had it worst. Some windows could not be opened the entire way, so air circulation in the room was very limited. Perhaps this is more of a design issue of the hotel but it's honestly time it's updated. Climate changes overtime and it's important to adapt. I'm sure my experience would have been as pleasant as the first time if the weather was closer to average but this situation really proved to me how the hotel chain prioritizes profit over the comfort of their clients. So, I don't blame the staff. They did their best, so thank you for your hard work, staff!! I'm more frustrated with the company as a whole. Please, update the heating and cooling system.

NO BREAKFAST, despite the fact that it still says there's a breakfast served in the pool area. I stayed here several times pre-covid and it was the typical Choice Hotel hot breakfast with sausage, eggs, waffles, fruit. etc. They're using Covid as an excuse to provide so-called grab n go bag. I will not recommend this hotel if you're expecting or enjoy a decent breakfast. I gave it 3 stars because the bed was comfortable, and because they were kind enough to honor my request for a room close to the elevator so I didn't have to carry my heavy bags far. If you don't mind paying for a decent morning meal down the road, then you will not be disappointed. I travel constantly for work and find that most decent hotels are now doing breakfast again, which is a very important perk for me and my clients. C'mon, Comfort inn!

The room was small and the room smelled great. The overall comfort is very poor.

In fact, it is an apartment, and it is a bit difficult to find a taxi to the entrance. The facilities are very complete, clean and tidy. Refrigerators, stoves, washing machines are available. If you need it, you can simply make something to eat. It is a good choice.

The motel is kind of run down. The hot tub was not in service while we were there. Many of the windows had issues with condensation between the panes of glass. The breakfast was not well stocked. It was disappointing as we were hungry.
