Super clean, new, quiet, no weird smells, super comfortable beds and sheets, comfy desk chair of pleather which can be easily wiped of previous humans, TV has HBO and all basic channels, wifi fast, bathroom large and well lit and mirrored with huge counter space, kitchenette looks tiny but the fridge is much larger than usual that I fit 3 days worth of meals in there and it wasn't anywhere near full. Coffee machine was simple to run water through to clean before my use, super quick Keurig. They had paper plates, bowls, forks, coffee and plastic cups and even one large glass covered microwave dish for reheating food. I appreciate the large mirror, hooks and wall shelf at entrance and the huge closet and room safe. There is a black out shade and also a sheer shade which are far better than smelly drapes. All staff I came in contact with was helpful, polite and friendly. It's not very far from MOA and I noticed a shuttle at the front so I assume they even do airport pick ups, but didn't use so cannot confirm. There is a small amount of road noise but it's more of a quiet din. I did not use the pool, hot tub or work out room but they look fabulous. Each floor has a laundry room with counter operated machines if you need clean clothes and of course and in room ironing board and iron whoch easily pulls down from a slim cabinet. Obviously I highly endorse here if in the metro area.

Imagine my surprise then when at 8am (seriously, who starts housekeeping this early?!) housekeeping entered my room by disengaging the security latch. Wouldn't this be a clue that someone would be in the room, potentially asleep or in the shower unable to hear the knocking? This is infuriating and incredibly unsafe. Once the door opened and the security latch had caught, I was awake. No one called out "hello? Housekeeping" They just proceeded to disengage and walk in. Clean hotel. Would not stay again

At a minimum I think housekeeping should get the trash. Fortunately I dropped my dinner trash in a hotel trash receptacle by the ice machine. One more thing was that there was not a laundry bag for dirty clothes. I was on the fourth floor. I did think it was a bit odd that the hotel only had one elevator.

It smelled immediately of mold and mildew when walking in and nothing would dry! Everything felt so damp. There was no ventilation in the bathroom at all. I had my bathing suit in there from the pool drying for 3 days and it was still damp. I didn't get the chance to try out the breakfast but there was coffee and tea available at all times. Probably would have had a much better experience if I just switched rooms.

We just returned from a 3 night stay at the hotel/casino for our company conference. We arrived…read morelater in the day on Monday. The customer service at check in was lackluster, but I gave the employee a bit of a hard time and he cracked a smile, telling me it was his Friday-- all good! The room was nice. Double queen, a single chair, plug ins for all different charger types in several spots throughout the room, Keurig coffee maker and a mini fridge in room. My two slight "complaints"-- the A/C blew straight out into nothingness (I don't understand why they don't direct them INTO the main space of the room, at the beds) and the shower water didn't get very hot (maybe most people don't like to turn red when they shower?‍) neither of which were earth shattering or made my time any worse. Oh, and the pillows-- weirdly airy, hard to get comfortable on, but better than flat lumpy pillows! Can't make everyone happy The casino itself was very nice, all non smoking which I appreciate so much! A lot of slot options, table games (can't talk much in those as I don't play), self serve beverage stations located all over. There IS a smoking room in the middle area of the casino for those who don't want to go outside. There are also several food options. Caribou Coffee was my stop each morning (Mint Condition!). There was an ice cream and dessert place called Sweet Temptations (didn't get a chance to try it), a cafe as well as some sit down restaurants and more fast food type offerings around the back. Also looked like there is a sports bar getting ready to open. The hotel also provides shuttle service to and from several places in the area throughout the day such as Mall of America. That was a nice option for my husband who joined me but was not part of the conference. As for our event, I can only assume that the buffets and food that we had were catered by the property... most of it was pretty unimpressive and flavorless. I don't want to dwell on that too much, though, for this review. Overall, if I am ever back in that area, I would visit again.

For the price and the proximity to the new Mystic Lake Amphitheater, this hotel was incredible. From the Baymont, you're about a 30-minute drive to downtown Minneapolis and roughly a 12-minute walk to Mystic Lake. The hotel does have some age to it, but the people working there clearly do a great job keeping it clean, comfortable, and looking good. The beds were comfy, the TV was a good size, and the bathroom had all the proper amenities. If I ever come back to the area, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Special shoutout to the guy running breakfast. His upbeat attitude and genuine care for the guests really stood out and helped make the trip feel special and memorable.

The female manager at this location lacks the skill set it takes to manage and deal with people. She screwed up our reservations and when I called out the employee who screwed up, it was her and she became hostile and instead of dealing with it professionally or like a human being; she turned into a giant ghetto b*tch and kicked us out and it sounded like she was trying to ban un from returning to the property. Stay classy, Shakopee! She didn't think we could find a room in Shakopee but she must not think normal people travel for work and not every hotel is like this property she supposedly runs: a drug-infested party brothel.

I had requested a handicap room and my son stopped and double checked for me and when I checked in, I asked that it was a handicap room. It was not handicap friendly . It had a bathtub that was 12 inches on the side, hardly handicap accessible. The tub didn't drain and the shower didn't work. Your night clerk came in and tried to fix it and did not succeed. The aisle was so narrow. We had to move one chair to get my mother's walker through the door and down the aisle. The privacy chain did not go all the way down and the chain came off. Walking into the room the table had a broken brace on the leg. The refrigerator in the cabinet had doors that open opposites, and there was mold and rust on the hinges. The hot tub was cold and my mother got a chill and came home with a cold. The pool was also cold. The breakfast room left a lot to be desired. The waffle mix machine dribbled out. There were no eggs. One girl cannot run the front desk, check out clients, and keep the breakfast nook stacked. This is not the quality of service that I would expect from a country Inn and suites Motel.
