This hotel is not new and has been around for at least 10 years but it has been extensively remodeled and might as well be new! I was pleasantly surprised. I stayed here back then, almost the first day it opened and when we entered the room that day, the drapes had yet to be hung up....they came and hung them up:)
Well, those drapes are now gone and the window treatments are beautiful. It is a welcoming place...the staff is friendly and the rooms are kept very clean by the housekeeping staff. I just didn't care for the idea of an envelope being left to tip the housekeeping staff.....maybe it is okay...and I did put a few dollars in.
The breakfast is good but the area where you eat the breakfast is quite small and as it was a busy weekend in GF it was very crowded. so we ate it in our room. They have a pancake maker that makes pancaked really fast. Quite the hit!
The pool area is quite small....crowded as well but the water is warm. It would be okay on a different weekend perhaps. This hotel has a great location. You can walk to a lot of the shopping and it shares a parking lot with IHOP and the wonderful Ruby Tuesdays. It is super easy to find as it is right off the interstate, at exit 138.....no getting lost! I loved all the upgrades to this property and no scaffolding was visable on the 10th of November and the hotel looked beautiful and inviting in the dark with its blue glowing lights.

The hotel seemed to be very new - still had that newness smell about it.

The room was big, the bed was comfortable, the tv was a large LCD with a great picture, staff was very good and most importantly the hotel & room were very clean.

The hotel is adjacent to several stores & restaurants in walking distance.

Had no complaints about the hotel, expect the construction. There was no mention of construction when I reserved online or on my confirmation emails. However when we arrived we found scaffolding up the sides of the hotel. We were awoken at 630 am by the workers right outside our window. When we enquired at the desk later that morning we were told they were not supposed to make noise before 7am. Really? 7 am. Hey I'm all for getting up early, but to be awoken again the following morning by a reciprocating saw right outside our room at 0715. When we checked out I politely indicated our displeasure with our stay. I then had to ask if I was really going to be paying the full price. Only then were we given a slight discount. Despite the clean room, good location and good breakfast, I will not be staying here again due to the lack of courtesy from the front desk.

we traveled to see UND and I wanted two separate rooms so my husband and teenage son could watch exploding things on tv while I watched quieter things... Beautiful room, very comfortable beds with a "soft" pillow and a "hard" pillow for each person, full kitchen (wish we were there longer to make use of it,) nice breakfast area. And it was two separate rooms with an actual door between them (not like many "suites" where there is really no separation for noise.
would love to stay there again
