Nice man at the desk, very friendly and professional. I tried to save some money but this goes way too far. I don’t want to trash the place, but I’m pretty sure there was some sort of domestic dispute down the hall. I hung out two hours and left.

Room was clean. Tv remote needed batteries. Toilet needs to be tightened down. There was no one at the front desk when we left to let them know about the things that were needed for the room

Parking is well lite. Room had no carpet and floors clean. Lights in room not functional except bathroom and by the bed. Air conditioner cooled well but smelled like pot (Marijuana). Easily heard argument in hallway, no sound proofing. Bed was very firm, sheets and towels stained. Staff was present by not friendly or welcoming.

Building and rooms are not kept up and looks like a drug house. Garbage all over outside the parking lot and sketchy looking vehicles of people hanging around. Not feeling safe at all. Definitely a place if I didn’t have a handgun and wasn’t a big male, I would not stay here.

The motel needs more upkeep. Some areas are lacking. Furniture needs replacement. A refrigerator and microwave should be in the rooms, not downstairs and unkept. Quiet enough most of the time. Burns in bed covers that need to be changed out. VERY BASIC! At any price.

Did not speak English
Clean and comfortable a little trouble with the TV at first but eventually ok. Biggest problem was making the reservation the person on phone could hardly speak English

I did a search to find the lowest price room in Fargo, ND. Found this hotel, found the amenities excellent for the price, I'll likely use this hotel in the future.
