I was disappointed this time. Have stayed here a couple time. Things were broken in the hotel room. It needed some repair, nothing big. The room was hot. The parking gate for the lot would not work. I had to call the front desk every time to get in and out even after I had to go back in and exchange to parking pass. Not sure I would stay here again.

Great accommodating atmosphere. I was attending for the penn state / Minnesota game. Really special place. I’ve stayed at graduate hotels in Ann Arbor, Palo Alto and now Minneapolis. Will seek out this great brand on future trips in other cities. Only negative was the check in person told me parking was free, which it was not. I didn’t mind as free parking in a city is unheard of but it was a surprise add to the bill. I didn’t dispute it but transparency would have been nice.

Everyone was so helpful and kind at the hotel. Room was clean and housekeeping was very nice. Very Minnesota decorations in the rooms. Parking was tricky but I feel like it would be everywhere around there. Tons of places to eat in the area and 3 coffee shops right out the door. We had breakfast at the Beacon Public House in the hotel and it was delicious. Overall a great place to stay and right on campus which is great for parents visiting their kids!

Check in was a little rough. Despite it being 5:45pm, no one was at the counter. Then, there was in issue linking my reservation to the room, which took check in a long time. Our friends staying here were given the wrong room type but were comped free breakfast. The gentleman at check in was very apologetic and kind. The decor here is fun. I have Loni Anderson leering over me while sleep. My son and his friend enjoyed the gaming tables and the adults enjoyed the space to sit and have a drink. Will come back if my son picks U of MN.

I live in Fargo, ND and frequent the Minneapolis area. This has been one of my favorite places to stay. The price is good, there’s a lot to do and see and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Thank you for making our stay a good one. It’s a plus that Starbucks is right in the building :)

The Graduate is our go-to when we are down by the U of M for whatever reason. They never disappoint. Although, I need a change for a hundred and the front desk couldn't give me change which is a huge bummer.
