We DIDNT stay but we still had to pay. You advertise you have a pool but it’s down until December which yes is written in the policy’s print hidden but you shouldn’t be able to say you have a pool when it’s down til December. The desk attendant was beyond rude.

I would only recommend this as a place to sleep for one night. But I will not go back. Pool closed for maintenance. Probably long term. No breakfast of any type provided despite it being advertised on their own web page, the sign AT THE DESK and the booklet in the room. Clerk did not offer that information until being asked about it after I checked in. No refrigerator in my room despite being advertised. The other room for our group did have one. Part time staff. No one on duty after 8 AM on Sunday morning. A phone number was left in case of emergency. Before she left, the clerk reluctantly made a carafe of coffee but only after being asked to get rid of the stale coffee from the day before. She wasn't sure if they had any coffee packets but managed to find one. However, the room was clean, the beds and pillows comfortable, it was quiet and the TV worked.

Great service and the place was clean. The pool is out of service and they DO NOT serve breakfast, contrary to what it says on Expedia. The owner said the room was discounted for that reason, but I booked the room looking to soak in a hot tube after a long day at the race track. Apparently Expedia was notified of these changes but hasn't updated the info on the booking registration. It was good for the price and it made sense why the room was so cheap compared to the rest of the hotels in the area. Just a heads up.

Expedia and the Owner and Management for Nisswa Inn and Suites should be charged with fraud. The hot tub and pool are not in service and have not been for 4 years. The cleanliness is nonexistent, and I was told there there was not continental breakfast upon arrival to check in which was also falsely advertised as having breakfast. I am demanding a refund for this reservation that was never fulfilled and will report this as fraud if I am not refunded for it properly.

We specifically chose this site because of whirlpool and swimming pool, and they were not functional. The beds were uncomfortable. The bathroom was outdated (water was able to get outside the shower/inside wall so likely mold). Bathroom was also dirty, and hair dryer did not work. And we actually laughed at what was considered breakfast. TV was small. The staff did give me a very soft blanket when I asked, which is about the only good thing I can say.

TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT

We got there started checking in. Then after we were done. Gives us the keys. Then tells us that the pool was off limits until summer. Because it causes to much moisture and is damaging the building. We were totally shocked. I said well your site said open. If it was closed then you should put that on the site. That's why we booked. She did not sound surprised at all. So I think this happened to a lot of others.So trying to give it the benefit of the doubt.We went to check out the room. It had a weird smell, it was old, and the fire alarms were going off in the room. The walls had dents in them. No TV in the bedroom. Closet was dirty. We were not going to stay. We went down told her we were not staying. Can we get some of our money back? We told her what was wrong. And that she should of said the pool was not working. But of course no refund. It was to late. Total scam this place is. If your browsing I suggest you don't even consider this place. Horrible.
