"FlyerTalk community specifically notes the MMM code as "the go-to code for the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, described as extremely reliable at local Courtyard and Residence Inn properties, with a low risk rating." One user documented using an IBM rate for 14 years at 80-100+ nights annually and "never once being asked for an ID." Another stayed 500+ nights and was never asked. The 3M code is regionally well-known near 3M's Minnesota HQ."
