Well it's old, but it's cheap and clean. We were glad to have it at 9PM after about 14 hours on the road. Get off at 182, go south and look west at the first intersection, you'll see it up there. read more

Wanting to support the smaller local businesses, I checked in here and found a little gem. Because I was checking in rather late, just after 10 PM, I called the phone number on the office door and a nice lady met me at the hotel room door. My room was small, but perfect for one adult, and although not fancy, it was extremely clean and had a frig, microwave, and coffee maker. Again, no frills, but super clean, tidy, easy check in and lowest priced room I've had in years. I would definitely stay here again. Also, I suspect that there are so few reviews for this motel because itusual clients seem to be locals probably don't care about writing reviews.

Check in - awesome Room - awesome…read moreMorning manager - awesome Breakfast guy - awesome Breakfast - 90% awesome Value - questionable. My biggest complaint? WTF happened to the cinnamon rolls? Seriously, due to snowstorm on my route home, I pulled up a list of available hotels and selected this property over the Candlewood Suites almost exclusively due to HIE breakfast and, in doing so, paid an extra $40. The breakfast was great and the guy working there was helpful, friendly and very attentive. But those "new and improved" Cinnabon rolls were a total let-down. While they smelled good, they were lukewarm, too dense and largely taste-less. If I wanted taste-less mass prepared breakfast pastries I'd have stayed at the dozens of other hotel options. Instead, I stayed here for the awesome cinnamon rolls that HIE hotels are known for. I know you still have them - I had 2 on Tuesday morning in Fargo. I can only surmise that Cinnabon is paying you a ton of "dough" to proudly display their logo and serve their rolls. Don't get me wrong - I love Cinnabon rolls. But these are not normal Cinnabon rolls - these are some kind of 2nd rate imposters that obviously come frozen and then are thawed and slightly warmed to room temperature. I've had better cinnamon rolls out of vending machines. You are going to lose more money than you make on this deal. Am I overreacting here? If you think so then you don't understand the importance of breakfast pastries or the pure joy of eating a traditional HIE cinnamon roll. They are pastries that just simply make you happy and ready to face the day. The new ones made me want to go back to bed. This started as a 1 star review but this hotel is great and the people are awesome - it's not their fault that the corporate people are morons. But the cinnamon rolls are a differentiating factor for Holiday Inn Express. You've lost that now. And me.

If you're just looking for a place to sleep for the night, this hotel will do the job. They offer a complimentary breakfast with a rotating selection that can include eggs, meat, potatoes, and either pancakes or waffles. The variety is nice, but the coffee is extremely weak and the creamers aren't consistently stocked, so it's hit or miss each day. There's also a small "business center," but it's really just a converted closet with a desk, chair, and printer. Time is limited to 15 minutes, so it's not suitable for conference calls or any extended work. One frustrating detail was the constant cleaning in the lobby during peak traffic times. Whether it's intentional for appearances or just poor timing, it often meant stepping over cords or navigating wet floors when coming and going. A clean, basic place to stay if you're not expecting much beyond the essentials.

Folks frequently comment about noise in hotels - and that's due to jerks staying in a hotel more than anything. Hotels can only be so sound proof. A nice touch is a room in which you can set the AC to where the room is cool (ours was perfect) but the best part is being able to force the fan to continue running when the room gets to temp. That's the way it was here and we heard nothing at all during our entire stay due to our choice for the background noise! We don't know when we will be in Bismarck again, but if we are, I can guarantee we will stay HERE! Thanks again to the staff, management and owners. :-)

I like not having to go to the front desk to do a formal check in, and I was able to go directly to my room without any issues. Comfy room, spacious. I really like the set up of this hotel; the elevator is in a convenient spot and the pool is right next to it also. The pool is heated which was so nice and I loved the hot tub. My only complaint other than the shower was that the usb plug next to the bed wasn't working so charging my phone was a pain (I forgot the wall charger part in the car). Overall, I'd stay again for sure.

We went back to the front desk and they took care of us - getting us a new room (which was actually an upgrade)! They said they would refund us completely and after calling them and connecting with Expedia (I booked the room through Expedia) I received a full refund. Unmatched customer service. As far as the Home2Suites hotel goes, the room we had was large and clean. We were only there for one night, but there was an entire living room in addition to the king suite and bathroom. If I have to nit pick something, the soap dispenser in the shower was empty and the extra bedding was missing pillowcases (I like a bed full of pillows). Not even worth taking a star away because the customer service was just outstanding. Breakfast was great in the morning, who doesn't love waffles?! Hot coffee, oatmeal, bagels and toast, fruit, and cereal. Overall, a wonderful stay.

And when I asked for a fresh set it was a problem.I got intervals of 15 min sleep all night because drug addicts we're in and out all night! Slamming the door and talking by my door. I have stayed in several motels and after a certain time of the night they lock all the doors and you have to have a key to get in well this was not the case the door was unlocked all night and people were coming and going all night long slamming doors I didn't get a wink of sleep.Then when I addressed these issues I was at fault for not 4eporting it. And I'm sure this goes on every night people in and out drug addicts and I'm sure they know this because if they're doing their job then they should know and they should lock that door they let this go on and it's just ridiculous! I will never ever stay in this Motel again it is the worst of the worst! And while this is all going on the person above me has the squeakiest bed and all night long it was bouncing you can figure it out! LOL

After a 24-hour drive from Seattle, I arrived to find an empty, lifeless lobby--no fireplace, no other guests, and even the small retail counter was completely bare. The only staff member present appeared very young and visibly unprofessional, with hickeys covering her neck. I had my ID and credit card ready and simply mentioned that I was a returning guest and asked for the best available room rate. That should have been straightforward. Instead, I stood waiting for about 15 minutes before she told me she needed to call her boss. When I asked if there was a problem, she explained that it was her first day, she didn't know what she was doing, and that she had been left alone at the front desk. That was the breaking point. After an exhausting drive, I wasn't interested in being someone's training exercise. I asked for my card back and left to stay elsewhere. This experience points to one thing: poor management. Leaving an untrained employee alone to run an entire hotel--especially during the holidays--is unacceptable. It's disappointing, because I've historically had good experiences with La Quinta and expected better. Unfortunately, I won't be returning to this location.

I had to sit and wait for a part for my RV for nearly a week, and they were very nice and accommodating, even lending an extra hand when I needed a little help fixing something. Hillcrest sits up on a hill just a few miles out of town, and the property typically gets a nice breeze in the hottest part of the day, which really helps on sunny days. There are trees that provide shade too, so overall it's a very comfortable place even when the temps rise into the high 80's. It always seems to cool down into the 60's at night too, which is a real blessing in the dog days of summer. My only complaint with Hillcrest is their bathrooms, which are pretty much the original structures from decades ago. Frankly, they should have been completely demolished and rebuilt when the current family of owners bought the property from the original developers who built it decades ago. I'm not sure what the plans are, but I'd imagine they understand the situation and will get around to making improvements soon.
