Boarders Inn & Suites by Cobblestone Hotels - Faribault

It's a nice affordable place to stay for the weekend. Close to everything in town.

Good resting spot.

No toilets, bad internet. No refunds

Its a low budget hotel. Got the job done. The pool was closed due to cleaning the first day. Do that mid week not on a friday through sunday. The main floor bathroom door doesn't shut, so you either have to go to your room or use the one stall bathroom in the pool area. In our room there was hair all over the back shower wall and bathroom floor. Not sure how they missed that. The bathroom sink doesn't drain well. So you have to wash your face quick, otherwise it fills up before you are done. Our tv never worked. No matter what input we used there was "no signal". The drain for the drinking fountain in pool area had sitting water, not draining. Gross to use. The breakfast coffee was terribly salty. So bizarre, everyone complained about it. The positives: The staff seemed friendly enough making eye contact and saying "good morning". The morning waffle maker. And the extended pool times 7 am to midnight.

The smells. The property had smoke smells and perfumes to cover it up. We looked at a few rooms and then ended up leaving. They said they'd call expedia to give our money back but it's been over a week already and nothing.

There's no elevator to the second floor nor automatic doors.

TV wasn’t working. No signal. Window to room didn’t lock and on the first floor. Safety issue.

The rooms were very out dated and needed some major updates in the rooms and especially the bathrooms. The side fire exit couldn't be operated from the inside of it was closed fully. There was a sign saying sorry for the inconvenience, the door can only be operated from the outside. Defeats the object if you need an emergency exit to vacate the premises.

I received a good price on the hotel. The whirlpool was murky and looked dirty. It was also lukewarm. We had another guest come into our room with their key card and our door was locked. The guest picked the wrong room but the key card worked on our room. When asked about this, the employee on duty said that this happens from time to time. Very disappointing.

Room was clean, staff friendly, good rates.
