Well, define affordable. There are several hotel/motel/no tells in the immediate area. If you want to "Motel 6" it, you may have to go as far out as Vadnais Heights on the St Paul side or Columbia Hieghts/Fridley area on the Minneapolis side. I have a cousin who swears that the only way to motel it for a week is one of those "extended stay" efficiency style apts that are linked to Fairfields (a Marriot partner) or Holiday Inn (he also has 6 kids and a dog which may figure into his decision). Personally, I like the Embassy Suites near the Mall of America (only 149.00 a night but it includes a nightly manager's reception from 5-7 pm (free drinks and munchies) and a free breakfast (from omelettes cooked on the spot to cold cereal and toast) AND a free St Paul newspaper) Only thing would be getting across to Minneapolis during rush hour (does that Metro Rail thing run to Mpls?).
