“Mainstay Suites offers an extended-stay setup with fridges and stovetops, which could save on dining costs, though cookware isn't included; I imagine some might find that appealing for longer visits to the Mayo Clinic. While some report finding the rooms and property a bit worn, the night staff apparently make a solid impression with their helpfulness. For practical, budget-minded stays, it seems like a reasonable option.”
