Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Bloomington at Mall of America, MN
We stayed to be close to the airport before leaving on a week long vacation. Were able to pay to leave our car in the parking lot at the hotel for the week and rode a shuttle to the airport. This was the way to go! Walked to the mall the night before our flight.
