The hotel is a delightful stay, with super clean and inviting rooms, complemented by friendly and helpful service. The location is superb, close to downtown Minneapolis and the Walker Art Center. The dining experience could use some improvement, but overall, it's a comfortable and welcoming choice.

The rooms, even in the early summer heat, were super clean and inviting, with a little snack basket and a comfortable chair to read. They are so homey and comfortable, you'll never want to leave in the carriage house.

The 'world's most wonderful room' hotel was a fantastic stay overall. The rooms were super clean and inviting, complete with a little snack basket and a cozy chair for relaxation. The size of the room was gigantic, offering plenty of space to unwind. The service was top-notch with hospitable and professional owners and staff who even gave a historic tour of the place. The location was superb, close to everything Minneapolis has to offer. However, the dining experience fell short with prepackaged and limited food choices. Despite that, the value for money was great, making it a worthwhile stay.
