I’m a regular customer at the Graduate and was disappointed in two ways:
1. I arrived early and wanted to check in early. I was charged $30 for checking in early. I felt this was an unnecessary charge … do better Graduate.
2. After checking in, the toilet in my room didn’t completely flush, even after 5 flushes. If a hotel is going to nitpick little charges for checking in early, the least they can do is make sure the toilet works properly … do better Graduate.
The location is very convenient to UMN, with plenty of dining and tavern options.
