We booked this hotel due to the fact my daughter was gonna get admitted to Gillette Childrens in the early am hours and this hotel is pretty close proximity to the hospital is about 11 min away. We liked the decor of the hotel and all the historical aspects about the city of St Paul thru out it. It had alot of charm and character unlike alot of cookie cutter types of lodging and didn't feel so sterile was comfortable and enviting decor wise . It had super comfortable beds as well as pillows bedding was very nice. The downfalls were there was alot of outside noise and street noise in the location of it and there is no microwave in the actual room. There is a fridge and Keurig in the room but microwave is near the vending machines on the 3rd floor would be nice to have one in the room. And the Internet connection is very slow. Water was nice and hot and Tv was great. Was ample storage in the room as well as a comfortable chair for seating. Rooms were pretty spacious. The breakfast was really good for a continental breakfast had a nice selection of hot or cold items. Elevators were not working during our stay so had to use the stairs which was ok good excercise but not the most optimal with suitcases etc but that I am sure is out of their control hopeful they got fixed up promptly. For the pricepoint was nice lodging and we would stay again sometime, we didn't use the pool as we got into town later and went to bed somewhat early so cannot comment on that.

Friendly, helpful staff. I was most impressed with the fact that my vehicle was completely cleaned off when I arrived after 18 days of vacation. During that time there had been 11+ inches of snow plus some ice and sleet. I was expecting to do a lot of scraping before leaving the outdoor parking area. Also, the shuttle driver was very kind it lead us to the main highway so we could quickly be on our way home at 9pm. All round positive experience for my wife and me.

This hotel went above the post-Covid standard by being customer friendly and providing a delicious hot breakfast. The front desk even keeps doggie clean-up bags available in case you run out. Our stay with our dogs was very nice. We were in St Paul to for a dog show at the RiverCenter. The hotel was an easy, short drive to the event center.

We were exceptionally happy with our stay at this Holiday Inn Express! Everything and everyone was awesome, from the very comfortable beds, to the gentleman that checked us in to the young gal that worked the desk early morning when we checked out. The gentleman that served the breakfast was unbelievably friendly, cleaned everything efficiently, kept the food filled and offered to take our used plates away! He was a GREAT representative of Holiday Inn Express! The breakfast was so much more than we ever expected. It may of costed a little more than other close by hotels, but it was worth every dime! Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Family of 4 had a great experience at LaQuinta. Friendly staff, clean hotel, good breakfast etc. I do wish we could have found the stairs to go to the second floor instead of the slow elevator, but that’s a minimal thing.
