Home2 Suites by Hilton Bismarck

The shower floors are the main thing that bothered me. They have grime, mold, or something that looks like dirt. I was told it isn't dirt and that guests ask about it often. They said they'd tried whatever cleaning they could, even bleach. I'd bring good shower shoes, and maybe your own mop and bleach or another cleaner for peace of mind. I still find the shower floor gross, though I do wear shower shoes. The thermostat is another issue. Air keeps blowing into the room even when it's turned off, apparently to keep the room smelling fresh. That may not bother most people, but I don't want cool air blowing when I'm cold. Apart from those things, the hotel is pretty clean in the rooms and outside, and the staff are very nice. It's quiet, looks newer, and sits in a good area with restaurants and grocery stores nearby. There's a decent sized gym attached to the laundry area. I believe the washers and dryers are free, and they sell small detergent packs and dryer sheets. I'd stay again.

The pet-friendly location was the only good part, though they charge lots of fees for pets. The room had a strange smell from the bathroom, the dishes in the cabinets were disgusting, and there was hair left in the shower that wasn't ours. I couldn't find any signs saying when breakfast was served. We left at 6 am on Sunday, and there were barely any options out. Not worth the price.

The shower floors were dark with grime, and when I asked for them to be cleaned, I was told nothing could be done. That made the whole room feel gross to me. Definitely bring shower shoes.

There were a lot of bugs in my room, including spiders, flies, box elders, and Asian beetles. I only stayed one night, arriving at 10pm and leaving early, so I didn't get much chance to enjoy the place. It's right next to I-94 and can be noisy, though the AC did a good job covering the sound. Breakfast had a good spread: eggs, sausage, bacon, potato wedges, croissant sandwiches, English muffins, oatmeal, pastries, cereal, waffles, hand fruits, juice, and milk. It was okay for one night.
