Very, very friendly receptionist when we got there and a very nice room. My girlfriend and I stayed there for a night as a half way point between the Badlands and Chicago. It was nice that in the middle of nowhere (at least to city girls!) we experience zero prejudice for getting a room with just one king for the... More

Pet friendly hotel with easy I-90 access. The bed was very comfortable. The room was clean. Staff was pleasant. Breakfast was decent...and free. Easy stay while passing through the area. The in-room coffee was delicious.

Thanks for your review. You mentioned most of the things we are really proud of in our hotel. Our pet-friendly rooms are just as nice and clean as any other room in our hotel. Our breakfast is something that we keep improving by offering malted waffles, eggs, sausage, biscuits and sausage gravy, hot & cold cereal, fresh fruit, and lots... More

We stayed there during a cross country road trip and were pleased with the room, the furnishings, the quiet, and the cleanliness. The free breakfast was pretty good, with fresh fruit as well as other items.

Just a nice clean hotel with a better continental breakfast than most. Great value. Poor pillows like most so we bring our own. Large breakfast area. Only complaint would be it has thin walls. We had a adjoining room door and could hear any conversation. Maybe try a upper floor or room without a adjoining door.

Thank You for your review of our hotel. I too, always take my own pillows when staying at a hotel, but I'm wondering if you tried ours? We have wonderful pillows, and get compliments on them almost daily, even requests to purchase them. When you stay next time, please give them a try. We look forward to your return. Julie... More

We stayed here on our way to South Dakota. The hotel is right on highway 90, easy to access and right near shopping and restaurants. The staff is friendly and eager to help. The rooms are clean and well appointed--with keurig coffee makers in the room (along with the coffee pods), a nice large flat screen TV, comfortable beds and... More

Room is large, comfortable, and clean. The room is modern, easy connection to internet. Close to highway, but no highway noise. Had a good night sleep. Breakfast had hot food, fresh fruit, good selection of items.

We booked this hotel as a pet friendly location to crash the night with our kids and dog as a half way point between Naperville, Illinois and Deadwood, SD. We have had some pretty grotty experiences with pet friendly hotels before so were thrilled when we arrived here exhausted, to find a beautifully clean room with plenty of space for... More

Traveled here with friends , on personal business. We required a pet friendly room, which was provided. (we had a reservation). All amenities were OK. Perhaps I have been staying at much nicer places, but this just seemed average. Ended up with a raging case of athletes foot, presumably from the shower. On the bright side, the breakfast was great!... More

Breakfast was hot, tasty and the dining area was beyond clean. Individually wrapped breakfast items ensured freshness. Susanne was so friendly and energetic. She gave us lots of travel info as we head into South Dakota. We both felt like we were dining in our kitchen with friends present.The rooms were spotless. Bed really comfortable.
