"Comfortable and clean hotel with nice staff.
There was a smell of bleach about the place and in my room. I was able to open a window to get some fresh air which was nice."
Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Shoreview-Mounds View, MN
8/10 Good
"Pro’s- weekend staff were very nice. Breakfast area is big, new and clean- high quality breakfast. Pool area is big. Rooms are nice.
Con’s- the American Flag flown at this hotel is an ATROCIOUS disrespect for the American veteran- I have never seen a flag is such a poor shape flown in our nation… our base would get bombed everyday in Iraq and we would still make sure the flag was cared for… the disgusting condition shows a MAJOR problem with leadership and there is no way a Manager that cares so little for our nation’s colors cares about the guest… I saw the offensive flag display before I even walked in the door…. Failing leaders that care so little do not produce a quality product and will never meet guest expectations. The remodeling going on I can live with, but POOR leadership will make me take my business to another hotel franchise in our next trip to the cities… HOT TUB had no jets and was cold on Saturday at 5:30pm and the staff sitting in the pool area didn’t know to check that someone had pushed in the emergency stop button… even when I explained how I got the jets back on she didn’t know what I was talking about- she clearly had not been trained- she wasn’t trained because of poor leadership at this hotel that doesn’t care about our colors. How long was that button pressed to make the whole hot tub cold? Does the front desk not get alerted when the button is pressed? Good location & facility, Super nice staff w/ Poor leadership, and hideous flag etiquette."
"Easy check-in, good breakfast. Some renovations going on, so breakfast was in an unusual place. Thought we were having trouble with our key cards... They gave us two, and we thought they were both room keys, actually one was for the pool ( they explained that to another member of our party, but not to us).Enjoyed having a suite, but thought it unusual that the door to the bedroom was glass panels, not a sold one, so not great privacy if sharing the run (pull out sofa ) with others."
