Nice overnight stay
The front desk personnel were super nice and got me checked in right away. The room was clean and comfortable. I took a star off because my room smelled like dog/mold and I had to shut the heat off for the night because my allergies were acting up. I’m super allergic to dogs and kind of wish they would have rooms that don’t cater to animals. Don’t get me wrong I think it’s great they offer that service for pet owners but if I could book a room that I know didn’t have animals in it, I would have. Besides that, it was a great stay. The best was comfy and the room was clean!

There was a convention this weekend and if i would've known that they were having food tables up around the poolside rooms i wouldve choose a cheaper room. They were loud late into the night then woke us up early in the morning. With that said with that amount of people no wonder it wasnt very clean and we found cigarette butts in the pool area.

The lady at check-in, (i believe he name was Kristina) was very nice, and efficient. The rooms were clean, showers good, nice patio, restaurant on site and one next door. The beds were a little uncomfortable. I'm surprised they didn't offer breakfast, for the price.

Old property needs updating. Expensive rates for a Farm community

Response from Guest Services Manager on Mar 10, 2023
Robert,Thank you for your review of our property. The rates for our hotel are based on several factors, like many hotels. The rates are based on: occupancy levels, time of year, what's going on in the area/surrounding areas. Our rates are dictated by the market, and our market is Interstate 90. Has we are located directly off I-90 and a halfway point for travellers from Chicago, IL to Rapid City, SD.Our hotel also was updated and remodeled Fall-Winter of 2021, we converted from a Holiday Inn to a Best Western.
