Hotel Minneapolis-Northwest (Brooklyn Center, USA)

With an inviting pool and well-equipped fitness center, the leisure facilities at this hotel certainly don't disappoint, and guests enjoy spending their downtime here. Plunge into the pool for an early morning swim, or relax in the spa tub after a day of exploring - you'll feel like you're truly on vacation.

The varied buffet breakfast has something for everyone, and guests particularly like the range of fresh-cooked dishes, which change regularly enough that you can enjoy a different breakfast each morning. As free hotel breakfasts go, it's a very satisfying one.

Guests enjoy the spaciousness and comfort of the rooms, so you should find that there's plenty of space to accommodate you and the family. Most guests seem to find the beds very comfy too, so you can lie back and enjoy your favorite TV shows, or just get a great night's sleep.

Some guests have had issues with the plumbing and water temperature in the bathrooms, with showers not draining well, or taking a long time to heat up. Some rooms seem to be worse than others, so if you have problems, you may want to request a room change.

Some of the hallways seem to suffer from a musty odor, according to guests, which is sometimes masked by equally pungent and not necessarily pleasant air fresheners. The hotel could probably do with some deep cleaning to get rid of the smells altogether.

If you're here to visit the sights of Minneapolis, it's worth noting that this neighborhood is a little out of the way, and guests say that there's not a huge amount in terms of amenities and shops in the local area. You'll need to be prepared to drive to most places.
