Worst place ever
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/22/07
This place was a complete hole in the wall. A couple of us were working in town and it was about the best price we could find. Which was nice. But then we got in the rooms. In my Boss' room had water soaked floors he then got another room that was just barely tolerable. Then their was my room it was horrible the carpets, walls, sheets, pretty ...

Total Dump
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/24/06
This was the worst hotel experience I've ever had. I made the reservation on- line not realizing what the hotel was like. I drove around town stopping at EVERY hotel in town but there were no openings, so I was stuck with the Budget Inn Express. There was garbage piled up outside the room doors. The room was filthy and the sheets on one of the ...

Not the same Westward Ho
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/27/06
The Westward Ho was a phenominal local Grand Forks landmark. However, the original owners sold this property in 1995. If you're expecting the fun property of old, it's gone. The cowboy boot shaped swimming pool was destroyed in the flood of 1997. The fantastic adjacent entertainment complex closed in 2001.
This may not the the Luxor or the MGM Grand but for the price and the convienience it is good. We went to Vegas for July 4th. We stayed at the Ho for about a week. We had rooms on the ground floor and could park right outside our door! where at most of the other hotels you have a parking garage, have to walk, then take an elevator after a trip ...

As Express as it gets
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/25/06
Me and my family needed a hotel and fast! We had been on the road all day and just wanted to go to bed. We would have slept anywhere...or so we thought. We stopped at the Budget Inn Express which clearly advertised "CLEAN ROOMS" on their sign. Once we got our room we stood there for about 5 seconds and were already making "this room ...

Avoid at all costs!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/06/05
I should preface this by saying that the room at this dive was provided for me for free by a former employer, who was thoroughly embarrased at my report to him. A number of years ago, this was probably a nice place. However, things change.
When I got there, I found out the old "Westward Ho", could easily just be shortened to ...
We attended a soccer tournament in Grand Forks with eighteen 12 year old girls and stayed at this hotel, only because there we no other rooms available anywhere. This place is a dump, there are people living in this hotel with dogs and there is dog feces right outside your door. The dogs bark constantly. The water runs in the bathtub, there are ...
