“It has been a true honor to work at one of the best hotel properties in the Twin Cities, especially over the past couple of years where the hospitality industry saw a lot of highs and lows,” says Anastasi. “I can honestly say that we have the best, hardest-working and most creative team that strives to provide guests with the best experience possible, which makes my job much easier. I’m excited about the year ahead and the opportunity to continue to serve our guests and grow our business.”
