Service elevator was full of used towels and glassware. The rest of the property was spotless and beautiful. The service elevator really detracted from the rest

A historic property has been converted into a luxury hotel. Comfortable rooms, nice bathrooms and you must check out the Prohibition era bar on the 27th floor. Another must is the observation deck and the museum detailing the history of the building.

Although the property was comfortable and nice, we did not have hot water the last day. When calling the front desk they did not know of an issue and just recommended letting the water run for several minutes. After 5 minutes of letting it run I could not stand to waist water with still no hot water.

Of the four elevators, only two were working. This caused backups in the lobby at check in time and at the end of the day. The hotel was beautiful and the rooms were comfortable and very clean. Just a hassle to get to your room.

Wonderful weekend stay at a historical building in downtown Minneapolis. Highlight is the museum and observation deck at the top floor.

Beautiful hotel in a historic building. Great food and entertainment in the area, and the Prohibition bar was awesome. Parking in that area is a pain, and the price for valet parking is a little over the top.

Disappointed
Definitely not a super clean room, was easy to tell it either doesn’t get booked very often (it was right by the elevator) or if it truly had bad cleaners. The sheets were very uncomfortable, felt like paper. The complimentary birthday card in our room had the wrong name on it so that was disappointing. Unfortunately the night we stayed a private event was taking up the 27th floor so we couldn’t access the prohibition bar.

Awful
Our thermostat did not work and our room was incredibly hot. We did call the desk and nothing was done. Not even a call back. The 2nd night - out power went out in half of our room. Security had to come and look through our room at 1:30am for the fuse box. The hotel only comped 4 beers. I did email them and they had no response.
