Top Downtown East Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Minneapolis Airport-South

10/10 Excellent

"I don't usually write reviews I'm not gonna lie, But I had to write about the front desk host Akira & the older white gentlemen who drives the shuttle in the morning, My experience with them was AMAZING. They were so kind, answered any questions I had, showed care & patience to all members no matter their status which I admire a LOT as the night crew of other men made me very uncomfortable dismissing me & was very rude with their tone whilst giving me half answers but were kind & helpful with others who weren't of my racial background. There was one in particular who was giving an older gentle men a hard time because he didn't speak English this was on September 26th at around 4am so I hope that gets handled. But to Akira & The older white man I hope you guys have a BLESSED life."

Hyatt Place Minneapolis Downtown

8/10 Good

"Complimentary breakfast was provided, several options including hot buffet of scrambled eggs, bacon and French toast in a spacious area to enjoy. Parking was very convenient and reasonable fee of $28 plus taxes - take the ticket to front desk for this rate. Drive slow and no problem negotiating the tight ramp with my CRV into the basement lot. Gym was fully equipped and clean. There is no pool. Staff was very polite, helpful and friendly. About 15 min walk to/from Target Center, we'll lit and plenty of pedestrian traffic and police presence to feel comfortable walking back at night after the event."
