The Twin Cities Metro Transit runs a Light Rail train between the MSP airport, downtown Minneapolis and the University of Minnesota. You can very easily take the train from the airport right to campus by taking the blue line from "MSP airport stations" to "US Bank Stadium" station in downtown Minneapolis, change trains at "US Bank Stadium" station to the green line train heading east and get off at "East Bank Station." The commons hotel is right in front of the "East Bank Station" light rail stop, and the tennis center is just 4-6 blocks north.
