6/10 Good

The breakfast was a joke. All they had was sausage links and eggs, there was cereal available but no milk. No yogurt, fruit, etc. I was down for breakfast by 7:30 (it opened at 7 on Saturday) so it’s not like I was scraping the bottom of the barrel. There was construction going on that was not disclosed, so no pool available. My floor wreaked of weed, but that’s not on the staff so much as the other guests. The staff was very friendly, and my room was clean

I was pleasantly surprised with my stay! Great check-in, the room was clean and not needing repair in any way. Roomy bathroom, fluffy towels. The bed was comfortable, a firmer mattress, which I like. Great coffee machine with a lot of choices. Average breakfast of scrambled eggs and sausages one day and then with bacon on Saturday. Well stocked and and kept clean. I will stay here again when I'm in Minot.

Breakfast was pretty good, a little limited. A couple of juices were out. Eggs, sausage or bacon, cereal, waffle maker, some fruit milk and nice coffee maker. Rooms clean, showing a little age, but nice and quiet.
