My wife enjoyed it very...

Liked: Convenient and tasty breakfast and happy hour. You can grab stuff and take it up to your room. Anyway, who complains about free beer?
Disliked: The steam room is just a one-person steam shower. Functional but a bit of a disappointment.

Very comfortable room with space,...

Liked: I loved the room itself, lots of space, amenities, great character and homey touches. Probably one of the most comfortable rooms I've stayed in - both the bed and the couch. The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. There is a complimentary wine and cheese hour that was a really nice touch. Robes to wear during your stay which was also really nice. Location was central and easy to walk anywhere in downtown Fargo. They have a nice turndown service too. The pub located downstairs was really easy to order through and very quick.
Disliked: I did enjoy my time there but there were a few things that took away from the experience. There was an odor in the hallway that was unpleasant but thankfully didn't permeate into the rooms. The door didn't have a safety latch or peep hole to see who's there, and traveling alone I didn't love that. Booking.com mentions parking, but there was no onsite parking so I ended up paying $15 for valet as I was tired and didn't want to have to figure out where to park. Lastly, being near the trains, there was a pretty consistent vibration although once I put on the tv, I really didn't notice that.

Very good

Great staff and very comfortable....

Liked: Told the staff it was my birthday and they went above and beyond with my room and treats!
Disliked: The only issue I had is our room keys, the would work to get to the third floor but only one out of three keys would actually open the door to our room. Twice, I had to ask the front desk to reset the keys, but other than that I had no complaints.
