The building's age definitely shows. I will make sure to be more proactive next time so I don't end up staying here. We simply needed a bed to sleep in and were in the room for 12 hours, so we weren't bothered by any means. But wow, old building. Very dirty vibes inside and out. Major renovations needed, or just tear the place down. I appreciate the cheap rate at least. Ya get what ya pay for.

This hotel is good for the price but could use some TLC-especially with the breakfast. I could rather have a cold choice breakfast that is clean and safe than a hot breakfast that looks unsanitary or not edible.

My bed had a huge sink hole to sleep in. Breakfast was all gone and very dirty for service area and tables. No fruit, beverages besides milk-I cannot drink milk. Safty an issue too as many of outside doors had broken locks so anyone could come in without their card.

Worst breakfast that I've ever had at a hotel. Just terrible. It was obvious that there is absolutely no care about that aspect of service. Free breakfast is an important part of selecting a hotel, especially customers with children. Scrambled eggs, sausage patty, bacon, bisquits and gravy. All cold. No microwave to heat it up. Nothing keeping it warm. Had to go down the hall for a cup of coffee. No cereal or juices. On top of that, had a roach running around my nightstand. I didn't even know that we have roaches in the Dakotas. The staff was pleasant. The place felt secure and well built and quiet.

We had to enter next to the sketchy casino in the hotel. I did not feel safe entering or exiting at night through that door. The key scan in didnt work on the door by the casino bathroom. Room was stuck in the 1980s. The bath tub with chipping and the ceiling was crumbling.

The hallways smelled like sewer. The beds were uncomfortable- one of the beds had a huge dip in it almost to the point that when you laid down, you hit the base of the bed. The pool area is tile and super slick when wet- the hot tub had mold around the top where the tile didn’t meet up with the hot tub. The jets in the hot tub didn’t work.
