We have stayed at Country Inn and Suites for several years now, but they are becoming less and less desireable. This one was ok in a pinch. The carpets need cleaning in the room, bathroom was okay but black mold around bath tub grab bar, peeling wall paper and floor could use some work too. The lobby is good and... More

We elected to stay with this hotel and got the "Shop and Stay Package-1Bedroom Suite" as we were traveling with our 14 month old, it's nice to have another "area" of the suite for him to have peace and quiet if my husband and I want to watch TV. The room was dated and worn, scraped paint on the walls... More

The complementary breakfast was the highlight of the hotel. The room was comfortable, but the difference between the 2 cleaning ladies was from great to shabby. We were there 6 nights. The staff was helpful. The breakfast gal was wonderful. The maintenance man was able to cut the lock on my suitcase that I so stupidly locked without my key.... More

Easy to find, and convenient to the Albertville outlets (about 10 mins away). Check in was prompt, as we had pre booked online, so all I did was sign, leave imprint and car plate number. We were on 3rd floor, but they did have elevators near lobby, and stairs near an exit closer to where our room was. Rooms and... More

We stayed at the Country Inn and Suites in Elk River on July 21. The room was clean and comfortable and the front desk staff were all nice. My only complaint was that the pool did not look very clean (however the kids had fun) and the hot tub was not hot! It was warm at best, which was rather... More

A good hotel in a small north suburb of the Twin Cities. Comfortable beds, lots of hot water and a good breakfast. Found housekeeping to be slightly lacking...little wrappers in hall ways and along the bed frame on the floor. Nice toileties. Found the policy of having to obtain the key for the business center from the front desk annoying. More

Overall, I found this Country Inn to be a decent option on a long roadtrip. We opted for a whirlpool suite, which resulted in a rather damp and musty room upon entry. For some reason, Country Inn puts the whirlpool in the bedroom as opposed to the bathroom and I will probably avoid the whirlpool option in the future. We... More

I had a fine stay here. The rooms were neat and tidy, and the pool and breakfast were very good. The only downside to the stay was the understaffed front desk the evening of arrival. They only had one young man working! The room rate was average, and worth the price paid for the nice rooms. I would consider the... More

This is a clean, comfortable hotel with a friendly desk staff. The two negatives were that we were awakened early each morning by the maid's vacumning on the floor above us, and the second being the $100+ price per night on what amounts to just an average place to stay. Next time I will check out the nearby AmericInn which... More
