Forget ! about this place

We arrived at 8:40 and the office was closed. It was dark and no place to wait but in the car. There were two numbers on the door of the office to call. Called the first number and got no answer. Called the second number and he said to call the first number. I said I already had and gotten no answer. He said he’d be over in about half an hour. I said that was no way to run a business so he said he’d come right over. He arrived in less than 5 minutes. It basically is a motel that rents rooms on a weekly or monthly basis. It is ETREMELY basic. I will never stay there again and would NOT recommend it to anyone. I cannot understand how TRipAdvisor gave it a 7. A 1 would be generous.

Horrible stay. Couldn't tell if Tom had been cleaned. Floors sink and bath had food stains and hair. Towels looked clean but were placed as if thrown in spot. Soap package had been opened and shampoo was empty. Pillows were small and flat. Bed was hard and no chair in the room for sitting. Horrible hotel with thin walls heard neighbors having sex ads id i was in the same room. Relieved guy didn't have much stamina at 3 am lol.

Good Business Stay Location

I enjoyed the kitchenette and clean room, plus the ease of unloading luggage in front of my room versus dragging it through hallways of other motels.

Odd. There is a full kitchen, but NO cookery - no pot, pan, or skillet, no cutlery, no plate or bowl. No salt, pepper, sugar, cooking oil. No toaster. (I asked at the front desk, and learned that I should get these supplies from Walmart.) The freight train is 50 yards from the back building, with no sound barrier - not a tree or a bush. The place is OK, just odd.

Shopping in Bismarck and Charlie Pride concert in

Check in was good. I checked in and checked my room. Sheets had hair on them and blanket had crumbs on inside of it. Went shopping for new linens. I brought my own pillow and blanket. I later found towels in the bathroom cabinet. When I returned to the room after shopping and dinner, I found no TV remote or cable box, and phone was not hooked up. Dave was able to fix the TV problem, but could not do anything about the phone. There was no cord for it and he had no access to one. So I spent a night in a motel room with no working phone. Not a safe situation. Bring your own linens, disinfectant wipes and toiletries, and you should be ok. Plan also possibly not having a working phone. Dave was very nice, and tried to help as much as he could. The room was extremely noisy. Ask for a room away from the main road out front.

Convenient Back Up & Unload Motel....

I enjoyed the convenience of backing up to my outside door for unloading and having a nice kitchenette with large fridge. The place was a 7 or 8 on a scale of 1-10 regarding cleanliness. A dark bedspread still had lint and some long hairs on it & the bedside tables were slightly dusty. Keyless entry was troublesome initially & a room was re-assigned. This, too, had a problem when I returned a few hours later & found my key again not working. This resulted in an extreme rush to get to an evening appointment after getting new cards from the night clerk.

Older motel with easy drive to airport

Check-in was easy, and the person at the desk was very pleasant. This is an older motel with furniture that looks like it's out of the 50s or 60s. The mattress lacked support and the pillow was very hard. The bathroom appeared to have been renovated, so it was pretty much up-to-date. The best thing about the motel is that it is a quick, easy drive to the airport, which because I had a flight at 5 am, was much appreciated.

I felt a sense of racism from the clerk, maybe because I'm Native American veteran and was there to support the protest at Cannonball. Never again will I stay at that place!!

Great stay

I'm giving this motel 5 stars because I felt like I got more than expected for the low price. The room was large and the bathroom was huge. The cable TV was great. The room was very clean. Check-in was easy even at 2:30 am. I'm a global traveler who rarely chooses a motel over a hotel, but I'll remember this one next time I'm in Bismarck.

The stay was excellent. The room was nice. I came late, but called to let them know. They only have someone there till 9 so I had to call when I got there to check in. He came quickly and thanked me for calling ahead of time. Everything was fine.

Comfortable

It was just one night and was worth what I paid. A no frills hotel that was quiet and comfortable and an adequate breakfast. Staff was friendly. A Mcdonalds on one side and a Paradiso on the other, and a movie theater across the street. There was also a large Mall just down the street from the Red River Lodge.
