Ok for the price
This was an okay place. Fine for spending the night while travelling through Mitchell.
Good value
Easy access to freeway, dinning near by, possibly wonderful place in 1968. Very worn question cleanliness.
Nicely greeted. Room (54) looked nice. Floors creaked everywhere in room and hallway outside, noisy. Beds were the worst I have stayed at. Needed replaced years ago. My back was so sore next day. Mold pores all above, growing on bathroom ceiling showed to manager before checking out, he seemed concerned and said we will address it. There was mold in faucet and shower curtain at bottom. Otherwise room was okay. Breakfast just quick grab and go. Toast, waffles, bagels, bananas, apples, cereal. We showered, slept, and left quickly.
The breakfast area was in a triangular shape with the eating counter for placing your plates/bowels on the loner side. This space was rather limited and you ended up facing the wall. The only thing hot for breakfast was the waffles which you could make.
Clean, ice cold air conditioning, and attentive staff. The breakfast offering isn’t much but we didn’t stay there for the food.
The only room left was a non-smoking room, which smelled really, really, really bad. They refused to refund my deposit. Stay away from this property.
Clean and reasonably priced. Convenient location near I90
Room was clean and staff very friendly and helpful. I was traveling with my elderly mother, who needs a walker, we had a handicap accessible room and had no problems with access to breakfast. There was not an accessible shower though.
When you see the hotel it looks old school but inside it is clean, nice and very friendly staff. The beds were very comfortable and it was very quiet - all the things that are important to me. The room had a refrigerator and microwave and there is a continental breakfast and hot tub. Great pick for the price for a nice stay.
We always stay here when passing through from Minnesota to Deadwood and back because in all our years of travel we have never found better customer service than the Thunderbird. Case in point, recently, due to a mix up on our part, we accidentally booked the wrong date and the manager agreed to waive our mistake. Then, when making a new reservation, the manager called and told me that we had booked a smoking room when in the past we have booked non-smoking, so he wanted to just confirm if we had made an error in reserving a smoking room. We would challenge anyone to find a major hotel chain that would provide that level of customer service! If there is one out there, we have not found it and we travel often! Every time we have stayed, the person behind the desk has been cheerful, helpful and genuinely seems to enjoy their job. Besides that, the rooms have always been neat and tidy. We will continue to stay here again and again. We just wish every hotel had this level of service!
The hotel was very easy to find right off highway 90, so that was easy. Check in was very fast, and we were in town for a wedding and they accommodated an early check in for us, too, which was awesome! The room was clean, the beds were very firm, but comfortable. There was a strange loud noise from about 9::0-10:30 pm, which we think came from the laundry room beside us, maybe, but it stopped before we were trying to sleep. The breakfast left a lot to be desired, but we did go down a bit late, too. But it was all carbs like toast, bagels, cereal and donuts. I was hoping for some fruit. I did find yogurt eventually. The coffee was good, though! Overall, for paying less than $100 for two queen beds, we were very happy with our stay and would recommend this for anyone who didn't care about frills and amenities and who was just looking for a place to sleep and shower.
