Hill city visit
We checked in quickly and easily. We had our dog so we got a first level room near the entrance. Very convenient. Room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. Beds were comfortable, too.

Pretty good
Clerk was very friendly! Room was clean but very dark. Different bulbs would take care of that I’m sure. Bed was a little firm but all in all the stay was pleasant. Breakfast was awesome!!!

It was a really good hotel. Staff is friendly, clean nice property, but the only thing is their the bathroom is very small. That’s the only thing otherwise it’s everything is perfect.

The room was so humid that the towels, carpet and toilet paper was damp and it had a musty smell. Will not stay there again.

The hotel may be a little bit old but is very well taken care of. I enjoyed everything about it. Very charming. Great character. Very comfortable. The the one breakfast that we had was delicious. We'll have another one tomorrow.
Like other says the continental breakfast that they switch out and change things all in all would definitely come back
Plus the jacuzzi after a long drive. Feels very good to sit there for like 15 minutes

Hotel is OK.
Very friendly staff. The property needs some money reinvested into it. Will probably stay here again if we are in Hill City.

Awful.
Do you enjoy hearing exactly what's happening in every room as you walk down the hall? How about every toilet flush in the room next door? Do you enjoy chancing ripping your sleeve every time you brush against a doorframe? How about having to distract staff from their phones long enough to check you in, or help with simple requests? And doing all of this in an outdated, dingy setting? If all of this sounds like the ideal vacation, then this is the place for you! Otherwise, look elsewhere.
