For a better rate comparison, look at the quite nice HR MSP airport that's less than two miles away, or the older HP MSP airport that's about three miles closer to the airport (and farther from MOA). You can usually get a corner Executive Suite at the HR for about this price, although the prices shown don't indicate room category for the HH, so they might be one bedroom suites with full kitchens rather than studio rooms or studios with kitchens.
BTW, there's a new HH in Rochester MN (about 50 miles) and an older conversion HH in Evanston IL (about 400 miles), but no HHs at all in ND, SD, Iowa, and Wisconsin. So it sounds a bit misleading--even if true--to claim that there's no other HH within 50 miles.
As someone who lives in the Metro I don’t find it misleading in the least to state that there is no other HH in
Minneapolis. If you go to Hyatt.com and search for hotels in Minneapolis, MN the HH Rochester will not pop up, because its nowhere near Minneapolis. If someone were planning a trip to Minneapolis and activities therein, Rochester would be nowhere on their radar.
For Comparison that’s like discussing hotels in Los Angeles vs. San Diego. It’d be like saying well there’s no Grand Hyatt in Los Angeles which is true. Within the “Greater Los Angeles” area which spans I believe 100-150 miles there’s no Grand Hyatt. However, just about an hour south there’s one in San Diego. When searching Hyatt.com for Los Angeles no San Diego properties will show up, because they’re two distinct markets.
