Just returned from our stay (May 27-30) and wanted to be sure to write this review before our trip memories fade. We traveled with extended family and stayed in three suites. We asked for our rooms to be located close together and they were. The Staybridge is immaculately clean, with very nice, comfortable, updated rooms. We traveled with a baby, and the kitchen, cooktop, full-size refrigerator and all of the little extras included in the room (paper towels, extra trash bags, full-size coffeemaker, etc.) were great. Loved the pool, the dining area, the workout room, the above average complimentary breakfast, and the courtyard with outdoor seating. Loved the fact that breakfasts could be packed in to go-containers so they could be eaten outdoors. Also, coffee and tea available all day was so nice. We really appreciated having the use of the two enormous gas grills located in the courtyard area, and the staff provided grilling utensils for us to use. I think this is a pretty standard amenity, but the free wiFi was appreciated too.There is a complimentary laundry room that we saw but did not use. Most of all, every staff member in every department was warm, friendly and accommodating. Our stay could not have been more comfortable or enjoyable - I would recommend Staybridge Suites to anyone traveling to the Maple Grove area.

First - do remember to bring your bathing suit, as the indoor pool is great - clean and bright. The rooms were very well equipped and comfortable (good soundproofing between room, as I watched TV in one room and my son in the sitting room, but even with just one TV on, it was quiet in the other room); the location easy to find and negotiate (I didn't come to shop, but was lured to all the shops in Maple Grove, as well as the nearby huge outlet mall); the breakfast, included in the price of the room, was very good (included hot scrambled eggs, ham and waffles, as well as a multitude of other cold options); and the staff was gracious and welcoming (offered to get me a breakfast before the opening of the oficial breakfast time). The work center was handy, with a printer, fax, etc., which were all right there and the fitness center was clean (2 treadmills, an elliptical exerciser, a stationery bike and a weight machine), with a TV, towels, hand sanitizers, water, etc. There was also a laundry (a handy plus) and videos that one could check out (but $5.95 seemed a bit steep for that). I just wish that the breakfast on weekends would start at 7, not 7:30, but the habitual early-risers, like myself! Otherwise, a really great place to stay.

Very nice location. Close to lots of shopping and places to eat. Including Chuck E Cheese's (always a nice find for parents of young children). Typical Staybridge. If you like their model, you will like this property.

Staff members went out of their way to make my 3 day stay pleasant. That was the best part. Not an incompetent or pretentious boob in the bunch. Whoever is doing the hiring and training should get an attagirl. Pretty impressive in this price range.

My suite was clean and well laid out --full refrigerator/freezer, two burner stove, dishwasher, plates, etc. Breakfasts included eggs and either sausage, bacon, or ham as well oatmeal and several toppings and the usual assortment of muffins, fruit, and juice. On T/W/TH they have a Manager's Reception with wine and beer and some treat like egg rolls or pizza. Rather ordinary (I prefer cheese and crackers and fruit to shredded lettuce and pizza from the box) , but nice to come home to at the end of the day. Appreciated their business center with the fax and copier as well as the two computers.

The hotel is surrounded by every store and franchise restaurant you can imagine and it is just a short drive downtown.
