I would contact Mayo's free concierge service to see if they can offer suggestions:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/patient-visitor-guide/minnesota/concierge-services
You can contact by phone or email:
By phone 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. CST, Monday-Friday: 507-538-8438
Email: concierge@mayo.edu

Another option might be AirBnB for a room in a private home.

Hope all goes well for your husband.

@marska124, I have included a list of non-profit lodging options we have in Rochester. There is also a chance your insurance would help cover some of the expenses. Depending on which state you are in, there may be a little help that you can get from your county, you could reach out to them as well and see if they have any services that can help.

I hope there will be one of those services that can help you.

Hi @marska124, as you prepare for your time at Mayo Clinic and St. Mary's, I thought you might appreciate this information in addition to accommodation recommendations.

- What is the waiting area like for families at St. Mary's?

Is this walking distance to St Mary's? On the free shuttle route? That may be a consideration because parking at St Mary's is practically nonexistent. Looks like a lovely welcoming and caring place.

Google map looks like a short walk.
Their website says 3 blocks to St Marys.
Winter weather adds excitement.
They mention shuttle service if needed.
They are wonderful people.
