First Time Visitor
Great location for my trip, all within easy walking distance. The room as neat and well presented. However the fridge was not on and the two daily water bottles were left sitting on the shelf. The coffee percolator did not have any coffee and there was no other items of confectionary, ie, tea/biscuits. The downstairs bar was used as the breakfast area. Only ate one meal, breakfast. Extremely limited and so I ate out all the time. A great location but lacked a really good choice breakfast and welcoming items for the room.

Excellent location, affordable price. It is an older building but the rooms are quite nice. It is downtown so there were so homeless ppl around but they were never an issue. Bed was really comfortable. Only downside was the restaurant is French themed and only open for dinner. So we had to find other options for breakfast and dinner. Bar seemed nice but did not visit.

I chose the Rand because of the ability to walk to an event at the Orpheum and to enjoy the hotel's amazing restaurant Blondette. The restaurant and bar were quiet (Twins game that evening) and we enjoyed great food and service. The valet parking fee is steep, but totally worth it!

I hardly know where to begin... This hotel is undoubtedly one of the best I've stayed at in a long time. The entire experience, from check-in to check-out, was seamless. The water bottle being replenished. The instructions to use the coffee machine. The staff was exceptional—valet, housekeeping, and dining all exhibited a high level of professionalism. The attention to detail was remarkable; for instance, the bathroom lights turned on automatically as I walked in, and the lighting throughout the hotel was very practical. I also appreciated that the faucet was concealed from any visible mechanics, adding to the sleek design. Features like the steamer and high-quality amenities contributed to the overall comfort, and the bedding was incredibly cozy. The TV was practical, too. The bar, Rufus, had a fantastic sound system, and the service at Miou Miou was top-notch. The reception staff was efficient and quick to find solutions to any request. I was also impressed by the security measures in place, both in the elevators and at the entrance. The Marriott brand is simply impressive. I could go on and on. This hotel is excellent, and I highly recommend it.I will come very soon if possible. Thank you the wonderful staff made my stay memorable.

Overall, it wasn’t a bad experience. The property was clean, the people who worked there were friendly and professional, but they were really short staffed. A couple examples- a couple times it took up to 30 min to get our vehicle from the valet, when we ate at the restaurant, there was only one waitperson. The elevators took FOREVER- they are really slow! They also had a few parties at the bar area by the lobby that were very loud (obnoxiously loud). However, what did annoy me was that I made the reservation from my Expedia acct with my email- my hubby happened to hand them his credit card when we checked in. And they put EVERYTHING in his name. Even the greeting on our TV had his name-and I got an email addressed to him asking about our stay. Based on this, I will NEVER stay there again.
