Mercantile Hotel

 I know it was on South Main Street but not exactly sure where. In 1903 their ad stated it was the BEST $1 a day Hotel with plenty of room and pleasant surroundings. The weekly price was $4.50. The Hotel was owned by a Mr August  Benedett. His ads encouraged people coming to Minot to shop to stay at the Mercantile Hotel. The picture is from a post card collage of hotels in Minot in the early 1900's
