My room at the Road King was just ok. The bathroom could have used a major cleaning.There was hair in the shower and the sink was covered with shavings from the previous guest. The bed was the only savior, very comfortable. Looking at my creditcard bill, I found that I was charged for 2 nights instead of the 1 night... More

All I can really say is "meh". Everything in Grand Forks is overpriced right now thanks to all the Canadian shoppers that stream in every weekend (and weekday!). This motel is overpriced for sure...over $100 with a company rate for a room that was grimy (especially the bathroom...yuck), and a breakfast that was merely OK. The bed was comfortable, the... More

I'm sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay! I sure hope you let the front desk staff know that you found your room "dirty." If ever we have a guest that finds something dirty in the room we will try our best to remedy the situation right away! Hope you give us another try again to see... More

I have at the Road King Inn at least 10 times over the past 4 years. I love it. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are always clean. Every room that I have had has had really comfortable beds. The breakfast, which is waffles, eggs, yogurt, toast, pastries, muffins, coffee, tea, juice is great. The price is reasonable... More

We stayed here for 3 nights for a hockey tournament and of course some shopping. The rate is reasonable but the rooms need a make over. Our room didn't have the big chair which my daughter was very disappointed in. I asked the front desk where the chair was and was told that we had to request a room with... More

I am so sorry to hear that the staff rushed you like that!!

Went shopping in the Grand Forks area, this hotel is a good stay reasonable rate of $95 per night for a King size bed, the bed for me was a little hard though my wife slept fitfully.

We've stayed here at least a 25 nights over the last 4 years with very little to complain about. You're only paying around sixty bucks for a room so what do you expect?!?!

My wife, 2 toddlers and I stayed here last week. It was such a nice, clean and quite stay. The staff was friendly and we were welcomed with smiling faces when we arrived. It was a great stay at a really nice value. We have to be in the area again this week and will stay there again for sure!

Finding a hotel in Grand Forks can be extremely difficult on most weekends. My husband found us a hot tub suite last weekend at a decent price.

I stayed at the Road King Inn Feb. 2013. On our first night, when we tried to take a shower, the shower would only put out extremely hot water; therefore, we were unable to use it. In addition, the wifi was not working. When I contacted the front desk, they said they were completely booked for the weekend and could... More

I do apologize that you feel that way! Managment is not available on weekends to come in and prefers not to help guests over the phone.
