Property was clean, conveniently located to transportation, North Loop area, and Target Field. Nice lobby and attached restaurant. However located in somewhat of a business district area that was kind of empty during off hours, if early/late hours, other types of people on the streets. Also apparently we were not told about a $15/day food and beverage credit we were supposed to get until we checked out. My friend was told about this but I did remote checkout and would not have known if she hadn't mentioned it. No one offered us this coupon when we checked in and it was not listed as an amenity or we would have asked. When I called about it the next day, I was told there was nothing that could be done about it at this point since we had already checked out, and they were unable to credit our bill.
