Top hotels in Mill District
Wyndham Bloomington - Mall of America
The rooms were clean, however, no communication was done via text message even though they mentioned if there was anything needed to text. No communication on when room service was coming in. Half of the machine in the fitness room did not work & breakfast is not free eve though the site said it ...

Radisson Blu Mall of America
The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Was a bit worn down in terms of some of the furniture (some peeling of the covers, hard water stains in the shower) but nothing crazy. Overall super enjoyed our stay. People were so polite and the food in the restaurant was delicious.
