The hotel is fully modern, clean, and comfortable. We are already planning another weekend there! The staff was friendly and helpful.

Positives: We liked the updated style and spacious suites, as well as the safe, convenient parking.

Negatives: We didn't like seeing guests in bathing suits in the billiard room and walking around barefoot.

Overall I had a great experience. The hotel was very clean and the decor was pleasing. The extras such as the full kitchen was a nice surprise along with a small balcony. The hotel was easy to find and the staff was very nice & knowledgeable about the area when we asked for directions to a destination.

Positives: Extras such as a full kitchen (fridge, micro, stovetop, dishwasher, dishes).

Negatives: Parking cost $14/night, a lot for a quick overnight stay. No wireless Internet?.

The hotel was in a good location primarily. We were excited about the upgrade and went and had a beer at the bar there and it took 15 minutes for the bartender to show up. When we got to our room it was not an upgrade at all! The studio I stayed in at the same hotel in April was awesome and thats what made me want to return but to be disappointed. Overall, it was pretty clean and a good stay.

Positives: Downtown.

Negatives: I dont feel that you should have to pay for parking when you are a guest at their hotel.

Comfortable, clean, good parking, close to many activities and dining locations. For persons who can walk it is 8-12 blocks to many fine dining choices and all the action in the Hennepin Ave. area.

Positives: Comfortable, ok. Location, dining and bars were in walking distance.

Negatives: Queen size beds only, like King or doubles.

This is an excellent location for events at the HHH Metrodome. Nearby restaurants are pricey for the rent district. Minneapolis Eagle, down the street, is a bar for alternative lifestyles. The pool is actually a mini waterpark that costs an extra fee to enter, whether you're a guest at the hotel or not, only open Thursdays after 3pm. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays until 3pm. The hotel served as housing for many construction workers from out-of-town for new stadium, bridge and other Downtown projects.

Positives: Full-sized refrigerator, separate sitting are.

Negatives: Pool costs extra; only open Th-Su; happy hour didn't happen.

Really great hotel for families or business travelers or someone looking for a nice apartment-style hotel room for an extended stay.

Positives: The rooms are super comfortable and it's great to wake up to a decent free breakfast - I'll be back.

Negatives: The food in the hotel snack shop is quite overpriced.

This was a very pleasant clean quiet hotel with large modern rooms and good work space. I would stay here again for sure.

Positives: Large spacious rooms with full sized fridge, free internet.

Negatives: Location is not quite in the center of Downtown.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 10 Dec 2007 rated 10 out of 10.

Excellent option if you need an extended stay hotel. Fully equipped kitchens in the rooms with full size refrigerator. There's a full free breakfast and nightly reception with wine and food. Room service available from the other more expensive hotel in the same building. I liked this hotel very much.

Positives: Large spacious rooms with full sized fridge, free internet.

Negatives: The location is a bit far from actual Downtown.

For the price, the Residence Inn at the Depot cannot be beat. The staff was EXCELLENT. Breakfast each morning great, clean room, comfy bed, and the little kitchen is a nice bonus. If you travel a lot, then you know these places. This is the lower frills sister to the Renaissance (Courtyard) which you can walk to via rear parking lot, rather than all the way around the block. It's almost right on the river, which is a beautifully restored warehouse area. And it's only a few [long] blocks from the Government Center light rail stop, so getting to/from airport or Mall of America (not my cup of tea) is super quick, nice & convenient and only costs [one way] $1.50 off peak, or $2.00 peak. Location's BIG downside: to get to the light rail or walk towards downtown, you have to walk through the district.

Positives: Excellent for the price.

Negatives: Location is only good if you want to be next to the river; if you need to be downtown, the location is not so great.

Great place.

Positives: Big suites, nice decoration, free pool, free breakfast.

Negatives: Parking only available for a fee.

All and all this hotel was fantastic. We received a large room that included a kitchen and full fridge. Building location could not have been better we were within walking distance of many of our destinations, and when we needed to drive it was easy to get in and out of the area especially with directions printed on cards by front desk. Like mentioned above the only draw back we found was the extra charge to use the pool, and the fairly expensive rate for parking.

Positives: Great location, large room.

Negatives: There was an extra charge for pool (10usd) and for parking (14usd).

Great hotel to choose if you are going to the Guthrie!

Positives: Gas fireplace in room was a great touch.

Negatives: Long walk to the shopping areas of Minneapolis.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 16 Nov 2006 rated 10 out of 10.

Very nice place to stay I would recommend it again.

Positives: Spacious room, price, room set-up.

Negatives: Location and trying to find it, but once we found it, it was great.
