    comfortable bed

    Definitely need work, but served its purpose

    The staff I encountered were friendly and made the check-in smooth. Also, I appreciated the comfortable bed, which is really something, you know—even if they need to fix the sheets hanging down.

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but it was acceptable for what I needed.

    easy access to parks and local landmarks for weekend explorers

    I loved the short walk to Minnehaha Park and the nearby historic Fort Snelling, which made our city explorations so much easier and more enjoyable. the room was comfortable and clean, with great AC that outperformed pricier hotels I've stayed at.

    convenient location
    clean rooms
    worn carpet
    spotty wi-fi

    If you’re all about those fresh, local eats, you’re in luck! Nearby joints serve up bangin' vegetarian dishes that pack a punch. Plus, the owners at Snelling Motor Inn? Super chill and accommodating. Just a block from the blue line, making it a breeze to hit up the best spots around town.

    The old-school vibe gives a little character, but the carpet could use a makeover.

    recently remodeled
    heater issue

    The place was super clean, and I loved the recently remodeled bathroom with its sleek new tiling. There are great spots to relax, like the cozy lounge area and the small outdoor seating by the garden. The only thing was that the heater could’ve been better, but it didn’t really bother me. 😊

    outdoor pool
    clean rooms
    friendly service
    bullet-proof glass

    Had a great time with friends! The motel is super convenient with a nice outdoor pool and just 2 miles from Lake Hiwatha. We loved the clean rooms and friendly service. Perfect spot when you want to explore the area! Don't miss the light rail access to the fun spots in the city.

    However, our check-in was through bullet-proof glass, which felt a bit off. There were some areas that could use a little sprucing up.

    i recently stayed at this motel and was pleasantly surprised. my room was clean, comfortable, and newly renovated, which exceeded my expectations. the location was super convenient with easy access to public transit and close proximity to the airport.

    the heater didn’t hold the set temperature.

    I appreciated the clean and well-maintained room, with comfortable linens and easy access to the Metro a block away, making it simple to navigate the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, enhancing my stay.

    Could use more modernization in decor.

    Convenient stay with comfortable amenities

    I found the motel to be a great spot for my city trip! The room I stayed in was clean, equipped with a fridge, microwave, and a comfy bed. The location was super convenient, just a block from the light rail, which made it easy to explore nearby attractions. However, the decor felt a bit dated and could use some updates.
