We loved the building with the character and charm with bricks, lofted ceilings, and modern fixtures. The family suite is spacious. There was some Friday night street noise (maybe North Dakota doesn't have a noise ordinance?) and there were loud trucks cruising the strip with pipes that seemed to echo off the buildings. We were supplied with earplugs, though, and things quieted by midnight. The staff was outstanding. The wine and cheese hour was a nice touch.

Great boutique hotel in downtown Fargo. Comfy beds, friendly folks, wine & cheese hour, and great coffee with yummy pastries that don’t taste like rocks (anyone who travels will know what I’m talking about).

They honored my Expedia payment even though I canceled the original reservation because my car broke down. Additionally, they gave me a Lovely room! Great coffee and bakery breakfast pastries in the morning too!

Highly recommend!! The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is directly above Blarney's Stone Irish Pub - which was very convenient and good. This is a very well run, well taken care of boutique hotel - but it is small with minimal staff. So - you need to be patient, as they do an amazing job at being helpful and attentive. The location is on the corner of a business area - so it was a little loud outside, until after midnight. I kept the room fan on, and that helped a lot. The bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on - and I even asked what kind it is. They were happy to give me the name and manufacturer (local company) - stating they get that question a lot!
