Don’t Miss Out on These Advantages of a Midweek Stay

1. Less Traffic

It’s no secret that traffic is worse on the weekend, especially if you’re traveling. According to USAToday, the most dangerous day to drive is Saturday, while Tuesday is the safest. If you’re looking to beat traffic and stay safe on the road, we recommend a midweek stay from Tuesday to Thursday or Monday to Thursday. Midweek travel also benefits guests who fly. Flights on Tuesdays and Wednesdays are known to be cheaper than the rest of the week.

2. Smaller Crowds and Shorter Lines

Even in the middle of the week, there is always something to do in Mini Apple! From local events to local attractions, we guarantee you’ll be just as busy midweek as you would be on the weekend. During the week, you’ll have time to catch a matinee showing in the thriving theatre district. Visit a local museum without having to move around large crowds or enjoy some retail therapy without waiting in long lines to pay. There are so many possibilities that make smaller crowds one of the biggest advantages of a midweek stay!

3. Stress-free Dinner Reservations

Have you ever tried to get a weekend dinner reservation at a popular restaurant in the same week? If so, odds are you weren’t very successful. The best eateries often fill up their weekend reservations ahead of time, but that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on some of the Twin Cities best restaurants. You won’t have to stress about booking a reservation way ahead of time when you dine out on a weekday. You can even oftentimes find same-day reservations from Monday to Wednesday.

4. Save Money with Minnestay

Saving on your accommodations is one of the biggest advantages of a midweek stay! You could save as much as 25 percent on your reservation with Minnestay when you book your stay during the week. From one-bedroom luxury apartments in the middle of Downtown to large lake homes for the whole family, Minnestay has a Minneapolis vacation rental for you. We don’t just have the best selection of properties in the Twin Cities area; we have the best customer service. When you stay with us, you can rest assured knowing we are on your side from booking to check-out.
