The hotel is okay, it could have been a little cleaner. The waterpark is geared towards older kids, so my 3 and 5 year olds weren't impressed. They had more fun at the regular hotel pool more

My family and I were extremely disappointed in this hotel. We stayed for 3 nights total with our relatives in an adjoining room. On the 3rd day we decided to have our room cleaned, BIG MISTAKE! We left at noon and came back to the room around 11pm to find our laptop and wireless card in the laptop STOLEN and... more

We were in Minneapolis for a soccer tournament and this hotel was booked for a group. When we arrived I was surprised to see that the building looked older and not the type of place I would normally book. Check-in was flawless. We got to our room and right away I could smell something was off. The carpet was filthy... more

We were worried after doing our research on this hotel....what a GREAT surprise to us. We were only booked for one night, we stayed another night. Just because the hotel is older, does not mean its not a great place to stay. Our room was great, we asked for extra pillows, they were given right away. Our room was clean,... more

I was skeptical about staying at the Grand Rios after reading the reviews, but I decided most people don't write a review unless they have a complaint. If you are looking for a luxury hotel, this isn't it. If you are looking for a family friendly hotel that will occupy your children this is it. My husband and I stayed... more

We booked a suite for my 4 kids and I, the term "suite" was a joke. The room was no bigger than a regular room with a fold-out couch stuffed in the corner. The first thing we noticed was that our room door had a big crack in it as if someone had tried to break in. The lighting in... more

Rooms: Damp & smelly. The beds were uncomfortable. The sheets were dirty. We had to sort through all 5 pillows in the room to find 2 clean pillow cases. Restaurant: Awful, unless you like no-service, bad coffee in paper cups and powdered eggs. (for $9.95 pp) Water Park: Dirty & messy. Many of the water features for the little kids... more

I too, was worried after I read the reviews. I actually was looking up alternative hotels on our drive just in case it was as awful as the reviews I was reading. I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Check in was a bit slow, but we find that at almost all the hotels we go to. The staff at... more

I already booked not reading the reviews, so after i read them I was screwed. (I thought) Well I am so glad we went. When we got there I was going to nit pick at everything. I couldnt find anything that was noticable. Im a neat/germ freak, our room was clean. We had a poolside room, so many people have... more
