Moulin Rouge House B&B - Guest room at Moulin Rouge House B&B Mankato, MN

Moulin Rouge House B&B

(9 reviews)

Out of all the houses in Minnesota, this one is my favorite. Formerly the Hunt House, this…read morerenovated B&B is filled with charm, light, and thoughtful touches. I found this spot randomly when I came to Mankato for my birthday, and couldn't be happier. Breakfast is always delicious, and owners are experienced hospitality folk who go above & beyond to take care of their guests. I stayed in the Free Press Room, and my one friend who was visiting home also took a staycation and occupied the Worlds Fair room next door. Both were very comfortable, tastefully decorated, had an Google Home thingy that we learned to use . Plus, lovely bath products. They have recently added a second house for large group stays, which is a great option for "spillage" during larger family events (Ie, weddings, reunions, family vacations). Thank you for a wonderful stay, and keep up the great work!

We stayed at Moulin Rouge's house on a Monday night in late June. It was a last-minute decision…read moremade while we were still on the road in the evening, looking for a place to stop. Crhis answered the phone and had the good news that he had two rooms for our party of three, with the dog. He only asked that we don't let the dog go on top of, the bed, which we don't anyway at least when I'm around. It turned out that we were the only guests at Moulin Rouge that day. Kris said that typically, it's completely full during the weekend. As a testimony to that, he is still had a tent set up for a wedding party, and he was folding it when we arrived. Then her house is gorgeous and immaculately clean. I wiped up water after my dog, drank from her bowl and spilled a little on the floor. The napkin I used for that came back spotless white. The multiple course warning meal does not happen on weekdays, only on weekends. However, Chris still prepared yogurt parfaits for us and had a bunch of watermelon in the fridge. He also set up multiple baked goods and breakfast bars for us in the kitchen, ready for us to eat next morning. We opted to eat some of them that same evening. He also offered us to take whatever drinks were in the refrigerator, and we were able to store our stuff in the kitchen fridge as well. The windy Terry guys live upstairs to our rooms. Crhis unlocked our two rooms, and the other two or three rooms remain locked. Our rooms were connected, so we used them as a suite. The smaller room had a closet with a small refrigerator, which we didn't use because we had the downstairs kitchen with fridge our exclusive use. There were three bathrobes in the closet, and they used one of them. The bathroom was beautiful, with a shower and a very nice bathtub with bath salts out on the bench hanging across the tub. The water pressure was great in the shower, and the bath was very relaxing. There were bottles of water in each room with nice crystal glasses next to them. The house had a nice deck outside furniture, tables and sofas, and armchairs. There was also a beautiful small yard with yet another table and chairs, and a small vegetable garden. We had our breakfast in the courtyard outside, and our dog enjoyed the grassy area with bunnies hopping across once in a while the evening was hot, and there were fireflies in the air. Chris told us about. The area had flood issues, with landslides that week, so we couldn't get to see the Riverbank because they blocked the access due to dangers of mudslides. Still, we enjoyed a short evening walk with our dog in the neighborhood. Crhis pointed out that there was a house on their block were a famous writer of Betsy used to live on. He even pulled out one of the Betsy books that my 11 year old and I read together. My sophisticated 11 year-old First said she didn't really care for the book, but eventually, we both found it charming and enjoyed it. I also enjoyed listening to Chris story of how he ended up running the bed-and-breakfast. Apparently, he used to run an Eco hotel in Belize, where he met his wife who came as a guest. He followed her to Minnesota, where he went into the hospitality business. I think he works at one of the larger hotels, but a day, and also runs this bed and breakfast. His experience in hospitality business shows in how thoughtful the amenities are set up, and how clean the whole place is. All in all, it was the best hotel experience we have had while driving from Duluth, Minnesota back home to Berkeley, California. We usually don't stay in bed and breakfast, so this experience encouraged us so much that we tried another bit of breakfast, and Keystone, that had a great reviews, but it was far from the Moulin Hey Jeannie asked how we gonna celebrate July 4 and what they can bring Moulin Rouge experience. By the way, the reason why the place is called Moulin Rouge is because the house used to be a beauty parlor that had that name. He kept the name and the sign over the door, and the red tones in the decor go well with the Moulin Rouge theme.

Grimy and loud are the first two words that pop into my head to describe this hotel. The furniture…read morein the lobby is very worn and shabby. The elevator carpeting on the walls appeared dirty and I overheard more than one remark about avoiding touching the elevator wall. The room feels cramped with low ceilings and more shabby furniture. The carpet was clearly stained. The beds were moderately comfortable and the sheets were in good condition. In this room I could hear my neighbor clearly use the restroom and any other sounds from their room as if they were in the same room as myself. The hot tub was closed and had been shut down for some time apparently and breakfast was a cold bagged ordeal that I was never offered or made aware of either day of my stay. Overall it just felt cramped and dirty though the location was convenient and the garage parking included. However at the price, I would expect it to be more comparable in cleanliness and updates to other nearby hotels. I would not stay here again nor recommend it.

I stay in Mankato often for work and decided to try this place out just for something different…read more While I don't have any major complaints yet, I will say this property is very run down. Old everything. Old Bed, chain lock on the door, toilet and bathroom old. Mold in the shower, some once receipt from a month ago and a toy under the bed.... Just generally ratty. From the IHG app I expected much better. I will say check in was friendly and fast, and the hotel seems quiet (almost deserted) but otherwise there are many better places to stay in Mankato. This isn't on par with most IHG properties. Stay at the holiday inn express on the other side of town.

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Mankato - Really disgusting carpet. Looks like someone pooped here

I'd would give this place a zero star rating if I could, When we arrived and got into our room. The…read morefirst thing we did was take showers. By the time one shower was done the water would not drain and was ankle deep after 5 minutes of a warm shower. Then we started to pull back the sheets (2 Queen beds). The first bed the sheets were STAINED with what we will never know. Pulled the sheet back in the second bed and there was BLOOD stains. I showed the night clerk and was told that was pizza sauce. The sheet were removed and clean ones were put on both beds. On top of all that, they have no sense of courtesy. 99% of hotels that I deal with always knock on the door before entering. This place doesn't knock. They just enter the door with no warning.

MicroHELL Our first…read moreroom's lights above the bed were inoperative. They were quite lovely, just like one would enjoy above a hospital bed. The carpet was ratty, and there was a disgusting stain on it by the desk. The second room next door, where we were moved to, had some lady's underwear garment hanging on the hook behind the bathroom door, there was hair in the bathtub, and the sink drain was slow! With a clean tissue, I plucked said disgusting garment off the wall, and like it was a dead rat, I carried it out to the front desk. The staff were extremely unfriendly and not helpful at all, save one. Unfortunately, I didn't get the kid's name, but at least he tried. Upon arrival, we used one of their dilapidated carts to bring our luggage and other items in. The cart's frames pulled out of the base as we struggled to pull the cart over the ridiculously tall door threshold. After successfully navigating that obstacle, we were faced with a set of housekeeping obstacles. The cleaning cart was on one side, and the linen cart was on the other, leaving us no room to pass. This was no biggie, except that the housekeeping staff member was standing there the entire time, watching us struggle. He actually made eye contact with us and then ducked into a room! So, I moved the linen cart and pulled our old and busted POS luggage cart past. Upon check out, the staff member behind the desk got surly with my wife when she asked a question regarding our bill. He was very unprofessional and rude. It was not a pleasant stay, especially for the cost. There is no excuse for these room conditions and rude service for the price we paid.
