The amenities listed were not factual. There was no hot tub, the pool was closed and the breakfast was nothing extraordinary. The room was adequate...comfortable and clean.

Well our 1st room we had door trim fell off, and door wouldn't lock. So she changed us to another room. And that one stunk like smoke bad. And was dirty. But i didn't want to bother her again. So i just dealt with it,but i wasn't happy. The lady was very friendly.

The breakfast was EXCELLENT each day of our stay. We ate at the steakhouse and had a GREAT MEAL!! Had drinks and dessert the next night. Again GREAT!! For coming to town to attend a funeral, you sure did make the accommodations slide off the list of things that could go wrong. Highly recommend this place!!!

I have stayed at this location for years traveling back from Sioux Falls. Before that as a local for family events. Never again! The pool was drained, hot tub boarded over. Ice and snow made the lot and walkways unsafe. Staff at desk was texting and did not acknowledge me. The room was clean enough I suppose, but shower was in bad shape. Clogged drain, the silicon sealant around the floor was all coming away and was the only reason water didn't spill over the shower lip. I get that it is not owned by a chain anymore, but OMG! It is evident that the new owner has no care to keep this property anywhere near what it once was. It will be an abandoned business soon. Travelers steer clear!!!
