has a lobby bar with a row of barstools where guests can enjoy a drink, as well as a casual restaurant, a space with large windows, dark carpeting, and
high, circular booths. Guests are mainly business travelers, taking advantage of the convenient location by Target's headquarters as well as amenities like meeting rooms.
