The hotel itself was clean and the room was spacious. But if your plans are to use this as a park and fly, find another hotel. Even though they advertise a 24 hour airport shuttle, you are not allowed to keep a vehicle on site during your trip or it woll be towed, which makes it a useless amenity. They didn't disclose this fact until after check in when we were arranging airport transport. So we had 2 vehicles we had to find places to park.

They tried to charge me more for my reservation than I booked it for. I did get them to change it as I had the email showing the correct price but it was a long check in process. The hotel was okay but it needs a facelift.

Can’t extend your stay

Was attempting to stay a second night and the guy at the front with no personality basically told me I couldn’t. Although there are rooms to rent for the next day, he told me since I booked it through hotels.com that we would have to change the whole reservation which I couldn’t do. He gave me no reason why, and simply checked me in. I was 55 minutes early for check-in because I was going to ask them about that when I walked up, he said “I guess you’re wanting to check in early.“ I was actually there asking could I extend my stay with them, but instead, he assumed different. I love staying at this hotel and I stay here every time I’m in town for business, but his personality is hard to get around, and there is no reason why you couldn’t have extended my stay.

This place needs to be razed and rebuilt. It is old, old, old. TVs are 10 years old or more and don't work. My room smelled of cigarettes and I had to change it. The worst.

Have stayed at this hotel many times now for its convenient location up the street from the Fargo airport. The staff is always welcoming and kind. I usually am only there for the one night in order to make an early morning flight out so their location is great, the beds are very comfortable and the rooms have a full kitchen and small table setup so you could cook and make the most of your stay. I have not used those amenities but it’s a great option knowing it’s there. They have a nice size parking lot and I had a rental car this time so that made things easy. In the past I’ve worked with them to get a ride to the airport through their local “shuttle” service but also have used uber when needed. In a good location to walk to some restaurants nearby and overall a great spot to stay highly recommend.
