The stay here was a nightmare. There were fights between guests almost every night for hours. Cops had to show up a couple times. A few nights before my check out someone actually OD’d in one of the rooms. Garbage was everywhere around the property. A few times items or even food was thrown or left in the hallways. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Hello Dakota and is a very clean place the only thing I don't like and it's not the motel it's some of the people that stay there they fight too much they slam doors but that's not the motels problem other than that it is I'm going back again I stayed one night but I'll be back to stay for quite a while they're kind to me cuz I don't scream and fight like I said people need to stop fighting it's not the motels fault

When we walked into the lobby we were hit with an overwhelming wall of marijuanna smell. No blankets on the beds, just a sheet and light (very) comforter. The walls had splatter of what looked blood in the bathroom and bedroom. Extremely noisy all night long.

I always travel with my dogs, so finding a dog-friendly motel is the most important factor in my consideration. This place was extremely dog-friendly. There was a little bit of barking going on since several guests had dogs and the dogs became aware of each other. But to me that is a minor inconvenience because there is always some kind of noise at most motels. The staff was very friendly!!

Walked in the room and right back out!! It was visibly dirty. Hole in the door. Smoke scent. Sketchey people. No lights in the parking lot. Told the front desk and he kept saying "well its not a five star hotel". Obviously but even for the price i found elsewhere that was so much better for a similar price.

The Fargo Motel 6 was disgustingly dirty. The “non-smoking” room I had reeked of smoke, there were stains on the walls that looked like bodily fluids, everything was horrible. I understand that Motel 6 is a cheap option, but it was deplorable.

Not worth anyones time or money
I would never stay here again. The walls were filthy, The carpets filthy in the room and the halls. The bed spreads were dirty. There were domestic fights and yelling throughout the building during the night. Music played loudly in the hallway throughout the night, Overall I had very little sleep and there is nothing I would recommend about this business

Worst Motel-6 EVER!! AVOID! AVOID!
The WORST Motel-6 EVER!! The while place is falling apart, and the guy at the front desk is running around trying to fix things, leaving his counterpart who cannot check you in (he doesn’t do THAT). Took ten minutes for the guy that does that to show up and check me in!! So hard to understand what anyone was saying, with such thick accents. No laundry facility, as listed!!! No alarm clock in room. Bathroom was pretty gross. No blankets (just sheet and gross bedspread). No screen on windows. Broken light fixture next to bed (dangling by the wires!!!!) Hallways are a mess. Carpet was gross. “Snackbar” = bad coffee, creamer & sugar. Residents drunks and druggies are the only other people you will see and hear, the whole time you are there. I have stayed at plenty of cheap motels, and Motel-6 specifically, and this one takes the prize. Motel-6 and Hotels.com should be ashamed of themselves.

We checked in, had about 7 flies and fruit flies in the room, the whole place smelled terrible, and the rooms were dingy—nothing like the Expedia photos!! They were nice enough to switch us to another room. The new room had 3 flies. Smell was still bad. Sheets had cigarette burns, phone had crusty dirt on it! We ended up checking out shortly after and didn’t spend the night. We ended up booking another hotel.
