The digital key did not work for the elevator, so I was not able to bypass the front desk and the check in process. Otherwise my stay was pleasant. The round was spacious and clean. The kitchenette was clean and well supplied. The breakfast was the typical continental flare. The eggs were the watery powdered variety. The breads and pastries were fresh, and there were numerous toppings for oatmeal. I would stay there again.

I loved being able to pick out my room on the app. Then I checked in on the app, too.
Front desk staff explained that there was a $15 parking fee. I wouldn't have minded if I knew. But I was surprised. They only charged me for 1 vehicle even though my wife and I had 1 and my PCA had 1. When I had the appointment on the 3rd, I didn't need to stay because the appointments were so late but they did allow me to have 1 car stay to pick up after the appointment.
Oh, getting into the parking ramp... that was an adventure! You follow the signage for the Courtyard by Marriott and pass the entrance to the first ramp on your right. Enter the 2nd ramp on the right. Park on the right side where it says 15 minute parking.
Go to the front desk WITH your license plate number to get a parking pass. THEN move your car up the hill WITH a room key IN HAND.
The shuttle to Mayo Clinic is free. It runs basically every 15 minutes ,
They also asked if my giant dog was registered online. She was and because she is a service dog there was no extra charge. (A pet is a $75 charge.)
On Wednesday nights they offer "free" appetizers and cocktails. This could have been our meal if we were up to the energy of the gathering. Free is in quotes because every Wednesday is more expensive.
The rooms were listed on floors 3-6.
Floor 2 is the parking ramp.
I chose room 606 because I could get right off the elevator and go straight ahead.
It was a 2 queen Suite that was clearly recently remodeled
Honestly it is the smallest suite I had been in.
On the refrigerator there was a QR code to get Grub Hub trial for being a Hilton guest.
But the kitchen was fully stocked with a full size refrigerator, a dishwasher, a stove / oven, a toaster in the cabinet.
All the plates, cutlery, and cookware you could need! A coffee maker (not K Cups) with coffee and Swiss Miss, sugar and French Vanilla creamer
There was a small eating peninsula.
And into the living area. There was a sofa that pulled out into a bed and a comfy chair. Stacked tables and modern lighting.
We opened the sofa to be comfy with the giant dog while watching TV. From the wall, it reached the dresser that held the TV on the opposite wall.
The extra bedding for the fold out is on the top shelf of the open closet passed the sink.
The tub with shower is behind the single privacy door with the toilet.
There is a nice soft light night light that glows towards the closet and away from the beds so you can get to the area at night and not trip over something.
The bedroom has one table. Between the two queen beds. Though, it does have a desk and rolling chair. I needed to find a replacement for a nightstand because my wife needed the table for the C-Pap machine and I needed a place for my meds. But we just shuffled furniture around as needed.
The bed, the sheets, the blanket were all incredibly comfortable. I found the pillow to be too soft. But with the ceiling fan, a second TV and separate room controls, all was well all night.
I felt very secure knowing that everyone needed a key to use the elevator.
Then there was a standard bolt and a plate that held the door down from the inside. And all of that would only.be necessary if they got through the elevator first.
A couple notes:
Housekeeping comes every other day to straighten up and will do a full turn over every 4th day.
There is a full size iron and ironing board, as well as a full size hair dryer.
Unfortunately, the shampoo, conditioner, soap and lotion provided are in refillable bottles on the wall. At the moment they are clean but these never age well
The hot breakfast was awesome!

We were here for a week at the Mayo Clinic. My dad was able to have his own room and bathroom, which is why we chose this hotel. It is a little bit further from Mayo Clinic than some other hotels but they have shuttle service available. The front desk staff is phenomenal. The free breakfast is good with hot items every morning, including eggs, potatoes, a protein, a large breakfast burrito bar and of course the usual muffins, yogurt, oatmeal, etc. There is a daily parking fee and they share a parking garage with the Courtyard by Marriott. A key card is needed to ride the elevator to your floor. We were in room 401 which is next to the linen closet so our bedroom in the suite was very noisy at times. They do also have a laundry room which costs $3 per wash or dry. Soap and dryer sheets are available for purchase but a bit expensive so best to bring your own. Housekeeping service is every other day. We’re had a great stay and they were flexible with adding days as needed for appointments.
