Homewood Suites by Hilton Edina Minneapolis
Quiet room, great location. Nice selection for the complimentary breakfast. No fan in the bathroom (I find that MOST hotel room that I stay in DO NOT have a bathroom fan). The room DID have a full sized fridge and even a dishwasher. I'll stay again.

Wyndham Bloomington - Mall of America
The room was the best part about our experience, the room was located off the pool. And having a 10yr old I didn't have to sit down stairs with him I could over look him on the balcony.
