Reading some reviews made us wonder but talked to a friend who stayed before and they said not sure why the reviews might have been written as they are. We stayed 3 nights in a suite for a dog show and can honestly say we had to agree with our friends, some of the other reviews are just plain wrong,
It is in the top two or three stays (for value) we have ever had.
Starting with the registrattion and reminder the day before, the greeting at the front desk, and the warm atmosphere exuded by the staff it just made us feel welcome. While there we had people over to see our suite and stay to eat at our dining room table in front of the fireplace ... they were in awe!
Staff is always there to help //// first night we needed more pillows and bedding. The front counter manager ran up (twice) rather than make us wait for anyone to help him. Every day at breakfast they RAN to get more of anything they thought you might need.
The hotel is QUIET even though its near I94 which means its convenient .... shopping mall within 2-3 minurtes. And good restaurnats -- one recommnded by the front desk we hit twice (great Thai food) is less than 4 minutes walk. And pizza (Red Savoy) so good we convonced friends after seeing ours to order from there the next night is just 3-4 blocks away--- and they had sauerktraut on their pizza too.
Some people on Trip Advisor commented about the the neighbourhood ... get over it.
Its an older residential area on one side but that is a well kept area.
And its less than 10 minutes to the very centre of Saint Paiul.
Not sure why Trip Advisor says it closed for renovations as it is ceratinly open.
p.s. we already booked to stay there again next year
