Good
The Hodo is a nice spot in Fargo. As a visitor, I ate lunch there and knew it was a cool place. The food is good, and the beer selection is quite nice. I hear the hotel is great, too.
We have stayed at "the Don" two different times and are making plans for our third getaway. Our times there have been great - the rooms are different, fun, spacious. Sitting on the roof with a glass of wine on a beautiful spring day was a highligh

We chose this beautiful historic hotel for our elopement! It has been redecorated with a sleek contemporary decor, yet it maintains the rich fell of the past. The staff is wonderful. They even agreed at the last minute to stand up as our wedding witnesses! The room was very clean and was everything you could want it to be. I urge you to visit their website and enjoy the full flavor of this magnificent hotel. The history of its start as an odd fellow hall endeared the place to us. The current owner and/or the person who brought it to the 21st century while maintaining the integrity of its past is to be commended to the highest degree!!!! We are planning on going back again and again. We can not say enough good about this establishment. TREAT YOURSELF~ make a reservation there!

Different and very classy. Very nice beds. Definately designed for romance. The downtown location could be distracting with the regular trains, but that did not bother us.
