SUBURBAN HOTEL OPTIONS:
If you’ll have a car these may appeal on pricing. (Location is out of the city and nothing special.)
5)The Ramada Plaza Minneapolis is a recently discovered new addition to this list. If you’re going for convenience and free parking, this seems to be the over-all winner. It’s essentially a suburban hotel but, of these options, it’s in the best location: situated right between our home & the wedding location. http://www.ramadaplazampls.com/
