“River Hills Hotel provides pet-friendly accommodations, each equipped with a kitchenette, which I find particularly useful for families or extended stays; plus, the inclusion of free breakfast and recreational facilities, like the sports court, is a definite advantage. While some areas show wear, the friendly staff and the suite layouts-ideal for family getaways-make it a reasonable option in Mankato. For guests who prioritize convenience and a pet-friendly environment, it's worth considering.”
