My stay at the hotel was truly a positive experience. The staff went above and beyond, making me feel valued and cared for during my time there. The quality of the meals provided was a delightful surprise, especially tailored for medical patients. I found the rooms comfortable and spacious, providing a calming environment following my treatment. The location was certainly advantageous for accessing the nearby medical facilities. However, there were a couple of areas that could use improvement, like having more varied dining options.

My recent stay at the hotel was really positive overall. The staff is exceptionally attentive and went above and beyond to meet my needs, especially in accommodating various requests during my stay. I particularly enjoyed the large and comfortable room, which offered a great space to relax after my medical appointments. The free parking was a nice bonus as well. On the downside, while the meals included in the stay were of high quality, I felt that the dining options could have been a bit more varied. Overall, it's a great place for anyone visiting the Mayo Clinic.

My stay at the Kahler was truly exceptional, especially given its focus on assisting medical patients. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience, and the high-quality meals provided were a huge plus. The rooms were spacious and well-kept, creating a perfect environment for recovery. However, while the amenities were great, I felt the lobby area could use a bit more modern flair.
