The place is an average hotel. My only problem was both my work phone and personal phone would not work inside the room. Wifi was connected and reconnected. Could not make calls without them being dropped and could not send a text out.

A pleasant pet experience.

We travel with a dog and are always placed in the 'dog rooms'. The dog rooms at Prairie Hotel afford quick access for those inconvenient potty walks to a field across the parking lot. Please remember to pick up after your dog so that use of this field continues to be a pleasant amenity for dog owners. We have been to this hotel several times. The rooms have always been exceptionally clean. They do economize with pump soaps, etc. and the floors are laminate for easy sanitizing.
