The stay was enjoyable.
Pros:

The room was very spacious and clean. They served a great breakfast.

Cons:

The pool area was freezing cold. The hot tub was not working. There was barely any parking due to all the containers housing all the remodeling supplies.

Eh.....
Pros:

This hotel is just, Eh. It's under construction, so the lobby is just a big pile of flooring, etc. Room was ok, big and clean. Shower didn't turn on all the way so water pressure was bad. Bed was uncomfortable. And we paid over $200 because it was a Saturday. Definitely better places in Grand Forks to stay in my opinion. Maybe it will be nicer after they're done updating it.

The room was nice, overpriced due to the renovations.
Pros:

The breakfast was ok

Cons:

The pool was cold, the Jacuzzi wasn't operational. The building was being renovated with supplies at the front door and storage bins outside. We weren't informed about the renovations or that the advertised game room didn't exist. Also the vending machines overcharged, I was reimbursed a week later. Very poor experience

Given the problems I experienced, I would not recommend staying there.
Pros:

The breakfast, location, and comfort was good.

Cons:

When I cancelled one night of my two-room stay, the hotel cancelled the wrong night. So, I had to rebook another room when I arrived at the hotel. Unfortunately, when rebooking my room, my nightly rate went up $40 from the $162 I had quoted with my original reservation to over $200 for the night. In addition my TV wasn't working (the HDMI cable had been unplugged) and the phone wasn't working (the cord on the receiver was bad).

It was good for a short stay.
Pros:

The location was convenient and the price was very reasonable. They had a good fitness center, and we appreciated the free breakfast.

Cons:

The breakfast items were fine, but they ran out of the hot egg option at 9, and didn't replenish it. The HVAC unit in our room was very loud and the shower leaked around the faucet, so the water pressure was not good.
