What guests think

At Kahler Inn and Suites, travelers praise the unbeatable location across from the Mayo Clinic with indoor subway access, while feedback often notes an older property with dated rooms, tight paid parking, and varying noise from construction or HVAC.

Room cleanliness and maintenance are inconsistent, with reports of musty odors, worn fixtures, weak plumbing, or occasional pests alongside many mentions of clean, comfortable stays. Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, though some guests experienced slow responses, billing or deposit confusion, and housekeeping oversights. Complimentary breakfast is convenient but quality and replenishment vary; on-site coffee and a casual restaurant are handy when open. Expect excellent Mayo access and basic, aging accommodations.

It's my go to when I have appointments at the Mayo Clinic. Convenient, great price, and there's a workout room, pool, and complimentary breakfast. Parking in their garage can be limited and really tight spots for any vehicle over midsized, but there IS a parking garage across the street. There's a coffee shop in the lobby, sandwich shop just off of the lobby and a full service restaurant and bar on site as well.

The location is really nice for Mayo visits and the price is nice. It’s very convenient and really why we stay there regularly. However, the property is run down. It could be cleaned better and spruced up a bit. The pool was so disgusting we decided not to swim, which is really disappointing considering it would have been a great stress relief after numerous medical appointments. We even checked back the next day and it still looked nasty. Very disappointing.

Bathroom was original to the age of building, black mold in tub, towels were see through, A/C was incredibly loud, fan in bathroom was startling loud, on fourth floor and all sound from street came in, loudest hotel I’ve ever been at. When I complained about the mold I was met with the response “what would you like me to do”. I had to ask more than once for housekeeping to clean my room. All tables and counters covered in thick dust and the carpet was sticky. Breakfast was very basic, nothing like advertised. It was across the street from the clinic we were there for, but I would never stay there again.

Older hotel and looks it - rather shabby room. Could use USB outlets and easily accessed outlets in general. However if you're just there to visit Mayo across the street, the location can't be beat - you can go to the "subway" level and walk over without even going outside - very convenient during a Minnesota winter. All in all, it's fine - just make sure to bring your own usb power adapter.

Mattress was thin and hard. Parking garage is tight even for compact car. Pros: is literally right across street from Mayo Clinic Charlton building with subway access that is super convenient especially in winter.

The front desk staff was so friendly and accommodating. We had to arrive early in the day for appointments and they allowed us to park in the garage. When getting the parking pass they had a room available and they offered to let us check in at 7:45 a.m. The only thing that I was not happy with is the breakfast. They ran out of a few items very early. I let the one person working know about it after10 minutes of him checking it for refills and he did not remove the empty container or let us know they were out. When asked again when I saw him in the hall "he stated the were short on supplies."

Everything was good. But the hotel charged me 120 dollar extra. When i arrived they made a deposit for the room, 174 dollar. But the morning i checked out the frontdesk charged my card for 120 dollar. I returned and asked the frontdesk why. I could show that my card was charged a third time. The desk promised to solve the problem but I havn't got my money back 1 week later.

Terrible service, we arrived to check in and they told us that the room was not ready, that they were cleaning it, they left us waiting for more than 45 minutes in the cold. These types of hotels should not be advertised on Hotels.com, they do not meet the minimum requirements for a minimally decent stay. I do not recommend it, better to look for another option.

This property overcharged me twice over the initial property payment for rooms. They told me it would all be refunded and I am still waiting. Our room was not cleaned once in our two week stay. We had to take out the trash and ask for more bags. We reported a plumbing problem that existed before we got into our room. Was told we had to go buy a plunger because maintenance goes home at 9pm. Then we found out it was a person not doing her job and taking the way out. She moved us rooms later in the night. It was after 10pm then. No one could tell me why we were overcharged. No one could tell me why a cleaning wasn’t done. The only thing this hotel has for it is the location. Even the staff inside the restaurant were rude. Good was good. Service was horrible. Parking is pretty narrow and hard to come by even though you pay for it. We’d consider staying for the location but the hotel Itself was not ideal and would stay anywhere else and there are other options.

There was not one staff person that we encountered or talked to that was not either in a bad mood or just not nice. I believe I encountered three different people. Also, the towels were more like sandpaper. It was literally like exfoliating when you were drying your skin. Parking ramp had a lot to be desired. The room itself, though was just fine!

The hvac was so loud I had to take the cover off to quiet it down. The shower was really weak and the diverter didn’t work. The bathroom door wouldn’t latch unless you slammed it. It had a good breakfast though. The demolition of a parking ramp across the steer on one side and construction across the street on another side was not their fault but extremely noisy all day long. The best thing is it is connected to Mayo Clinic by tunnels. The last three times we stayed there were great.

Close to Mayo Clinic and connected via Subway (underground walkway). Mayo is a confusing mess to navigate. I asked the front desk person if I would be better off walking down the street or using the subway to my clinic appointment. She suggested the subway. Mayo Clinic not so clear in maps and signage I walked 5 blocks inside and outside then learned my appointment desk was nearly directly across the street. Close to parking garages and some good restaurants and bar near hotel. I was mostly pleased with my stay there.

I loved that we were right across from Mayo Clinic. We used the underground subway system to get to the clinic, so we avoided the humid weather. The rooms were clean and the price was very reasonable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There was construction across the street, but since were at the clinic all day it didn’t disturb us. Parking garage is a little squirrely, you have both incoming and outgoing cars on the same one car route.

The best thing about this hotel is its location next to Mayo Clinic. Super easy underground access for a reasonable price. The place has been undergoing long-term renovations and I always seem to get the floors and rooms that haven’t been upgraded (been going there 5 years now). These non-upgraded rooms are severely dated with bad noisy AC/Heat units and annoyingly loud bathroom fans you can’t control independently from the light. And they have minimal places to plug in phone/laptop chargers. I think I maybe get the old rooms since book thru Hotels.com. They now have a free breakfast and the restaurant that is in the same building is now open again (mostly burgers and sandwiches). Access to both is good if you use a wheelchair. There is Caribou coffee on the premises so you don’t have to rely on the horrible coffee in the room. Overall- easy access to Mayo Clinic is the prime feature. Definitely try to get a remodeled room.
