Good

My room was good. I feel like it could’ve been a little cleaner. Check in was easy. There were vending machines available. Breakfast was OK but I feel like there wasn’t a lot of people staying so I understand not having a lot of things out for breakfast. The pool didn’t have any towels, but the front desk was able to help promptly.

Saved us in a pinch!

We made a last-minute booking here after our car broke down. The staff was accommodating and helped us check in at almost 2 in the morning. Breakfast was pretty small and put away very early, so we didn't get any food. The room had an odd smell, but the bed was comfortable. Good for the price!

Perfect for the price

everything was very nice for the price, I can tell it's been upgraded from last year, the hot tub still isn't working right, and there's not a lot offered at breakfast but it's okay for the price. I definitely wouldn't complain and would go back there again.

Sketchy

We are waiting on a refund as we had to cancel our reservation and there were no other rooms available. We were in a 1st floor room and there was water pouring out of the bathroom light fixture. There was so much water on the floor it made it's way out of the bathroom to the hallway carpet. This is a major fire hazard. We had to drive an extra hour to find an available room to rent due to it being a busy weekend in Fargo. It was almost 1am by the time I found a hotel for my family (with 2 young kids) to stay. On a side note, there were sketchy individuals handing around and a young child playing in the parking lot by the dumpster at 11:30pm.

I came here with my 12 year old daughter. I had actually stayed at the property about 10 years ago before it changed ownership. Back then the place was well landscaped, good outdoor lighting and a welcoming entrance. That was not my experience this time. No lighting in the parking lot, an odd blue and mauve exterior made this spot look abandoned on the outside .. plenty of cars in the parking lot, but gives off a sketchy vibe. Lots of people hanging around the parking lot made us feel uncomfortable or unsafe. I will say the inside was very bright and freshly decorated. Very nice greeting from staff at check in. The room was mostly clean, we found food from the previous stay in the fridge and the notepad next to the phone had a coffee ring on it, but the bed was clean and comfortable. Although the pool is small, it was clean. Again lots of foot traffic in the pool area of people not even swimming, made us not want to utilize the pool space very long. Since there were no coffee makers in the room, I had hoped morning breakfast would have coffee as an option ... WORST COFFEE I have ever had ..like hot dish water... No amount of creamer can fix that. I saw another review complaining about the coffee... It's true it's horrible... However the rest of breakfast is good. For the price I paid, I would hope to have a sense of safety for myself as well as my child, and although nothing happened, the place carries a sketchy vibe. I won't be staying at this property again .
