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.

We were stuck staying here as every other hotel was full. The front desk staff were not friendly at all, in fact they acted like we were bothering them. The outside was full of garbage everywhere and they had rat traps out…..the breakfast was not edible. The towels were washed but had stains all over them. The room itself wasn’t bad, but everything was not good. Also, there were people hanging around outside at night and they lit a bonfire right in the parking lot. No one seemed to care.

It was like walking into a new building. It was remodeled inside and out...new furnishings, beds, carpeting. The manager was helpful and even carried our luggage to our room on 2nd floor since we are near 80 and there was no elevator. We enjoyed our 2 night stay.

Towels had poop stains on them, bed sheets had stains, bathroom shower had hair plastered on the walls, floor looks like it wasn’t vacuumed for weeks, smoke from other rooms filtering in my room. Absolutely unacceptable for a room that cost 308.00 a night.

I would highly recommend no longer listing this property, as it is so disgusting that it reflects poorly on Expedia as the booking agent. If there were an alternative within 100 miles of here, I would likely pack my bag and leave. As it were, being the only room in Fargo, it was grossly overpriced. That’s to be expected with supply and demand, and I accept that. What I don’t accept is that this room clearly wasn’t cleaned. there were coco puffs and crumbs all over the carpet. There are stains on the towels and sheets, making me question whether they were changed. There are burn holes in the sheets. There is a large booger on the phone. There are water rings on both nightstands. There is hair on the vanity and in the shower. The complimentary shampoo bottle is half full. The shower head is held to the wall with toilet paper. The deadbolt is missing the catch. This is just what I noticed while walking into my room. I addressed the desk manager about these issues and he said that since I used Expedia to book, he can’t do anything other than ask housekeeping to check my room tomorrow. I went to Target and bought a sleeping bag just so I can sleep tonight, but I’m not sure if the shower is even safe to use.

Good: very clean. Rooms are good, beds are comfortable. Convenient to the mall and other shopping. Good size fridge and decent microwave. Could be better: Only one set of lights in the room. TV has no guide so it was difficult to find a show to watch. Breakfast had no protein only carb foods (at least the day we were there), not even boiled eggs. No ice bucket or coffee maker in the room. I realize it is an economy hotel but some of the things listed above we have got at a Super 8.

We booked on Expedia for a very low rate, so I was pleasantly surprised by this Econolodge. It’s been recently remodeled, so everything is newly painted and clean. The hallway carpets & ceiling tiles are new as are the hard surface floors in the rooms. The rooms do not have coffee makers, but breakfast starts at 6am so you can get a cup there.

It was a quick stay. Check-in was fast, service was good. The lights beside the bed were insanely bright. The bed was not comfortable at all, my back was so sore all night and the following day. The pillows were also very lumpy and uncomfortable. Three people came to the room the next morning to see if we were leaving soon/ready for them to clean it. The room was clean, except for the mattress itself. It had a few stains and some dirt/crumbs under the mattress cover. The smoke detector also had a bag wrapped around it, so maybe the people before us were smoking in the room. Who knows.

The front desk pesron tried to charge me $380 per night. I said it should be cheaper. I suggested i should look online and only then did he tell me it probably would be. He denied me the use of the Wi-Fi to book a room and had to go down the street to a McDonald's to use Wi-Fi. The next morning when i complained to the morning staff, they told me the upcharged room wrre supposed to be for the following weekend. Get new staff, they are trying to rob us. My elderly parents and my disabled son didnt even have a cell phone, they wouldn't have been able to get a room if i wasnt there. Disgusting!

So back down to complain, again nothing said. Get second room, wasn’t terrible. Go out to get food and the guy behind us said his room looked like a drug deal was going on.

No lids for coffee at breakfast. I asked the desk, he chuckled as the request was outrageous. The syrup dispenser was so low that the pump wouldn’t work. I pointed that out to the desk - nothing was done. I dispensed a cup of dark coffee. It was so thin the I could see the bottom of the cup.
