What happened after Hotel Impossible?

Crookston Inn & Convention Center in Crookston, MN, appeared on Hotel Impossible (Travel Channel) in the season-five episode "Crappy Management," which aired 2014-10-28, when consultant Anthony Melchiorri worked with the property's ownership on operational issues typical of the series. The inn's website, checked 2026-09-09, describes current accommodations at 2200 University Ave, Crookston, MN 56716, along with its on-site Scobey's Pub & Grub restaurant and pages for weddings and banquets and convention services, with a 2026 copyright notice and no older material found on the pages reviewed. The site lists a phone number, 218-470-1000, matching the number shown in the page content reviewed for this check.

Google Places separately lists the address as operational, consistent with the website's current content. No name change was found for this property; the inn continues to operate under the same name it carried during its 2014 television appearance. No news article, licensing record, or public statement describing a change of ownership, closure, or significant renovation since the episode aired was found among the sources checked. Anyone with more recent, dated information about the property, including any change of ownership or a significant operational issue since 2014, would add the next fact to this record; none was found in the sources reviewed for this update.
