Rooms were nice, had a small issue with toilet seat and was fixed amlost immediately. No microwave in rooms. Would have been nice, we were there a couple of days. No hot tub! Was disappointed at that as it shows on websites. Door going outside was noisy at night when people coming and going..overall a nice place..

Emilia at the bar was a superstar. She was slammed after 9 pm on a Saturday night, she was by herself and she rocked it!!! She deserves a raise. Front desk guy Nick also went above and beyond. Shout out to Friday bartender Megan who makes great martinis! Rooms were clean, close to our moms house and we would definitely stay again.

During our stay, we were in a great location for driving to and from the hockey rink. A Starbucks is conveniently located just off the parking lot. The staff was very helpful! Many families in our group had trouble with their reservations. The staff did a great job fixing all of the problems!! And they had GREAT fruit infused water in the lobby

Stayed at the Courtyard Marriott Fargo for a few nights with the family. Overall great hotel, plenty of free parking, close to everything needed and two pools (one kiddie pool with 2 small slides and one larger 5' deep pool ) Rooms were clean and comfortable. The balcony overlooking the courtyard was a nice feature and enjoyed using it to relax. Recent upgrades and construction showed well! There was still some ongoing, but didn't cause any disruptiona for us. The only downfall was that the restaurant/Starbucks inside hotel closed at 9:30am. Would have been nice to get a coffee after that time but they closed promptly right at 9:30am and actually turned me away trying to order. Thankfully there was a few other coffee options nearby, and not a big deal. (Starbucks and Sifted & Sweet both got my business during our stay). Would stay again! Thanks Courtyard Marriott Fargo.

This place is great it, I travel for work a lot so I stay at a lot of different hotels and I would say this is the top ten percent that i've stayed at. We tend to have unique needs when we stay and the front desk was awesome. They were some of the best people to deal with that I've ever dealt with in the hotel world. The only downside to staying here is they do not have free breakfast to my knowledge.
