Grand Forks Vacations from $650

I only gave 4 * on property because hey this is an old building. But I would come back in a heartbeat. There’s a nice walk along the river and the place is very clean and you can tell that they want this to be a nice place and it is there’s a pretty quilt on the bed some flowers in the bathroom yeah sure they’re plastic but they’re clean and it makes it look really charming. No feeling of grunge very happy.

We have stayed here many times over many years. It was a busy long weekend so breakfast selections were slim by the time we went for breakfast. Room was spacious and clean and comfortable. The water slide wasn’t working which didn’t affect us. One morning there was no coffee. But price was great for what we got.

Traffic noise early in the morning like 5am

We (my mom and I) stayed at the Josie hotel for 1 night after a long drive from the Coast. It is located at Red Mountain just off the highway. We had a lovely room with nice views overlooking the mountain and ski lift. The room was clean, modern, spacious, with comfortable beds, and had all the necessities. Our BIG issue was the lack of lighting within the room. Even with the curtains fully opened and all the lights on, the room is dark and difficult to navigate, especially for my 85 year old mom. I understand the hotel is geared for skiing/ biking guests, but having the option of having more lighting would be very beneficial to guests of every age, especially given the cost of staying here. Even brighter light bulbs might help. There is a lot of construction around the hotel, which is great for Red Mountain resort, but not great for walkability at this time. Other than these issues, The Josie is a great hotel.

Our room was recently renovated, and was nice. There were renovations ongoing in some areas but they didn’t really impact us. Staff were friendly.
