We always enjoy the waterpark with the kids. The food and drink options are vast between the restaurants. The nightlife at Playmakers on the weekend can be fun and exciting. The room was clean and comfortable.

I am requesting to speak with a manager from the Grand Forks location regarding several serious concerns from our recent stay. First, the Canad Inns attempted to charge my credit card multiple times for different amounts. Due to the number of attempts and the varying charges, my bank flagged the activity as potential fraud and blocked the transactions. This is extremely concerning, and I am unsure why my card was charged repeatedly with different amounts. Additionally, there were several safety and cleanliness issues during our stay. The elevator near Playmakers had duct tape around the paneling. While using the elevator, my 7-year-old son was shocked when he pressed the button to go down. This raises serious safety concerns. Outside of our room, a Pack ’n Play was left in the middle of the hallway throughout the night and was not properly stored. This created a fire hazard by blocking the hallway. I contacted the front desk to report this issue, but no one came to remove it. There was also feces present in a doorway near our room, which further suggests that the property was not being properly maintained or cleaned. I am very concerned about both the safety conditions and the billing practices during our stay. I appreciate you taking the time to review these matters, and I hope we can work together to reach a resolution. Thank you for your time and attention.

Really enjoyed the pool with the grandkids. The nice lady at the pool receptionist said as very friendly and great customer service. She even remembered us the next day The room was very nice and the bed very comfortable. The only thing that put a damper on the stay was we put five dollars in the Photo Booth by the arcade entrance the photo was not working and went into the arcade to see what’s up. A young lady was who said she had gotten a ride to work because of the ice. She asked a youn man and he told us that it was a third party that owned the Photo Booth. He said there was nothing he could do. Also said a phone number was on the booth. But there was none. Kind of disappointed because it just put a damper on our whole visit. Mentioned he should put an out of order sign on it and it didn’t seem like he was going to do anything. Kindness goes a long way
