Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Older building but extremely clean and well maintained. It’s dated but clean - no nonsense! Perfect for the 1-2 night stay. Breakfast was a bit of a left down, but very typical in terms of hotel breakfast. No fresh fruit.

If Valhalla had better hops, fewer axes, and a solid pinball arcade, it would look a lot like Brewhalla Hotel. This Fargo gem (tied to Drekker Brewing) is less “hotel” and more “glorified adult playground with beds upstairs.” Every room is themed around one of Drekker’s beers—think murals, wild labels, and enough personality that your standard beige chain-hotel room starts looking like a beige cry for help. Cool themes? Check. You’re basically sleeping inside a can of something hoppy and slightly unhinged. The craft beer situation is ridiculous in the best way. Walk downstairs (or just wander the complex) and you’re swimming in Drekker’s lineup—sours, IPAs, whatever experimental wizardry they’re pouring that day. Free taster at check-in seals the deal: most hotels give you a stale cookie; these people hand you actual beer. Priorities, people. The hangout areas are spacious and actually usable. No awkward lobby chairs that look like they were designed by someone who hates sitting. Add a fleet of pinball machines and suddenly “just one more game” becomes a legitimate evening plan. Flippers, beer, good vibes—the holy trinity. Food options keep the party going. Brewhalla doesn’t do “quiet luxury.” It does “loud, beer-soaked, pinball-clacking joy with a roof over your head.” If your idea of a perfect stay involves themes that slap, taps that never quit, space to actually hang, and zero risk of boredom, this place is basically cheating.

Wonderful stay
