Budget Host - Motel in Fridley - 6881 Hwy 65 NE, USA

For the money an excellent deal! The room was clean and spacious with a kitchenette and free Wi-Fi. Non-smoking room did not smell like smoke unlike a lot of budget type hotels. Like a lot of hotels, a little closer to a busy road for my liking. The high water pressure made running the water a little loud.

Bolt lock didn't work. The light in the bathroom had the automatic fan turn on that was SO LOUD! It was also uncovered and a fire hazard with dust clogging it. The dresser had no handles and was inlaid, so no way to open the drawers without tilting the whole thing. Maid service isn't daily. By day 2, we were out of clean towels, coffee, and cups. Creamer was so old, it was a solid chalk chunk in the packet. The walls are very thin and you can hear whole conversations! Running the water to take a shower is very loud, and the whole complex can hear that you are showering. You are right next to a busy road! The beds were comfortable. The water was soft. The TV cable was plentiful. Price was great. The staff was very helpful.

Positive: My room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. The bed linens and towels were all snow white and soft. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. Negative: N/A Negative: ""

Positive: The price is comparatively reasonable. The location of motel is very conveniently located in a nice area. Owners and staff seem good...helpful when needed. Simple room, but very very pleased with it. Look forward to returning. Hope it goes as well. Negative: Only thing for me was the bed was not bad in any way, just more on the firm/stiff side that I care for for peaceful slumber. Negative: ""

Positive: The carpet, shower tile, sink, toilet, and room was exceptionally clean. The shower wall and floor tile seemed brand new, and was very pleasant to see. The bed and linens were nice although the blanket was kind of thin. Many T.V. channels to choose. Negative: Marks on the walls, "peculiar" smell of the room, and not in a good way, the door hits the toilet when you open it, the door goes over a "hump" in the tile when you are closing it. No grout in tiles, and loose tiles in the bathroom. Negative: ""

The location on Hwy. 65 was easily accessible. Despite Hwy. 65 being a busy road, I heard little road noise unless a large semi truck went past. The room was absolutely spotless, and the linens and towels were snow white and soft. The shower was very clean, and the water temp and pressure were good. There were both a refrigerator and a microwave in the room (as well as a small coffee maker), so I was able to easily bring along and prepare my own beverages and breakfast. The tv worked well, and the wifi connection was quick and simple. Also, there were windows on both the front and back walls of the room. I opened them in the morning and got a lovely cross breeze. (And also a nice view of a beautiful vegetable garden.) The curtains were heavy and hung past the edges of the window frame. So even though the parking lot is brightly lit, the curtains kept the room dark enough that the light didn't disturb my sleep.

Old , small rooms, but very clean , kept up nicely.

Seemed clean, everything in the room was crooked not sure who does the maintenance but it's bad. The bed was comfortable. The floor in the bathroom seemed like I might fall through. It had cracked tiles and leaking water into them from the shower. The stay wasn't bad but could use some work on the rooms.
