“River Hills Hotel in Mankato strikes me as a practical choice, especially with its suites including kitchenettes-a definite plus for families or longer stays. I noticed the recreational facilities, including a sports court and putting green, which suggest a focus on active leisure. I think its pet-friendly policy, combined with a free breakfast, could make it a solid base for exploring the area.”
