Courtyard Fargo Moorhead, MN

We stayed two nights Labor Day weekend 2024. Checked in on Saturday, August 31 and checked out Monday, September 2. We were attending the nearby WMSTR annual steam show. So because of this very popular event, this hotel had increased their prices, and many hotels do on special weekend. To digress, we had stayed here about 6 years ago when attending WMSTR on Labor Day weekend. The room price was about $100 and a great breakfast was included. This time, the room price was doubled and the breakfast was eliminated. I know there is inflation, but the cost of living has not doubled in that time. This hotel has become very greedy. One can buy breakfast here, but everything is ala carte, so a full breakfast might cost about $30/person. This is also an evening bistro, but on both nights we stayed, the bistro had no customers. I can see why...expensive $$$. Our room was okay, we were given an handicap room, though we did not ask for it or need it. The room view was of the parking lot. Yes, only an average rating. Next time we will seek out a Fargo Motel when attending WMSTR.

I spent one night at this large Marriott Courtyard that has an attached conference center along with a large indoor pool. Frequent Marriott guests will feel at home in traditional Courtyard room and Bistro area. The hotel was spotless. The young man who checked me in at the front desk gave me a bottle of Gatorade gratis, probably because I looked parched after riding my motorcycle 400 miles. Nice touch. It may have helped that I'm a lifetime Platinum Rewards members. There is a cafe (Village Inn) a short walk from the hotel, but I didn't try it. I would stay here again.

Location was convenient, we had a surprise balcony room. Indoor pool that we didn’t use… downside no free breakfast. Clean rooms, no other concerns. Staff was friendly and helpful. seems to be in a decent area of town as well. Several restaurants very close by.

Bare bones room, no microwave to heat leftovers or anything. Three cups of coffee available to make but only one cream/sugar package. No continental breakfast which is important for a business traveler in a hurry in the AM. On the bright side the room was very clean! I could hear people coming and going in the hallway so that was a very early morning annoyance.

Nice lobby. Fab, enormous room. Great outdoor area. Excellent desk staff. Dog friendly. This place had a locked and loaded 5-dot review but then - say it ain’t so! - I found out they charge for breakfast. Marriott, that’s not how it works at Courtyard. The room cost us enough, breakfast should be free. Let me know when you fix this problem, and I’ll be happy to grant that fifth dot.

I saw one of the most amazing workers at that hotel. His name is Raymond and every time I saw him he was working. He was extremely helpful, always had a smile. Give that man a raise!! It is so rare that you see anyone working so hard, seem to enjoy what they are doing and still take time to be friendly and helpful
