It was a pleasant stay!

Parking was great! We were able to park right by our door, very convenient to unload and load. Room was clean and comfortable. It could be said the interior is a bit dated, but that didn't bother us because of the cleanliness. There is no staff on site, you get a code, then enter it in the lobby to get room key. Check out is great, you just leave key right in the room and leave. We needed some extra towels and they had them available in the front lobby as well as some other items.

There were flies in our room all the time. I ruined a rare cross stitch book trying to kill them. The t.v remote did not work till i bought batteries for it. The bathroom door stuck all the time. There is no one around to help you. Over all i would not recommend tbis place to anyone. Stay in another hotel.

Room was amazing. But got my worst nights sleep ever after a 7 hr drive and had another 7 hr drive today. Had to kill about 15 mosquitoes and 3 flies in the room. There was also a rat or mouse in there. The little milk container had been chewed open before i got there ( i have pictures) and then it would keep going for the other milk and coffee so i had to move it. After that i felt it crawling on my back and chased it away. It is living in the back of the fridge. There was nobody there to let them know or show the picture too..

Nice for a one night stay

This place looks recently renovated. They have a self check in system so nobody is actually in the office. We arrived at 2:00 on motorcycles in route to Sturgis and when my wife pushed the help button and spoke to someone on the intercom the were quick to mention that check in wasn’t until 3:00. There wasn’t one car in the parking lot so the place was totally vacant and it was starting to rain. Needless to say we entered the code, got our key and went into our room before 3:00.

Very clean motel with convenient autmated key access. Responsive host via text, didn't meet any staff though so it's hard to rate that. Very clean, just no food options in that little area. Great roadside rest stop though, I'd use it again. Good value, good beds, good shower. What else can you want?
