Facilities

Pool is generally usable, but many reviews report the hot‑tub jets not working or only lukewarm. The gym is basic, guest laundry/elevator performance can be hit‑or‑miss, and parking is straightforward.

Very clean and nice! Staff was very helpful. The reason for the average rating is that the hot tubs were more like a hot water tub, the jets didn’t work at all- was disappointing.

The jets were broken in the hot tubs but even worse the water temp in the shower would not stay hot. I mentioned this to the front desk at checkout, they said there was a leak and it was being worked on.

Great location to access interstate 90, North Street and Rushmore Road. Parking was plentiful and well-lit. Housekeeping staff were fantastic. Breakfast offerings were standard and OK. Hours were from 6am to 9am, seemed short. What I didn't like: 1. Advertised hot tubs did not work - jets were inoperable. We (and other clients) reported this to the manager/desk clerk on our first day July 21. We left on July 27 and they were still not working! Manager told us on Sunday night that the maintenance person was not available ....all week? No mention of compensation or solution. 2. When entering our room there was no light. A light switch by the door was inoperable. Upon first entering my wife stumbled over the coffee table. We could not see! Luckily she was not injured. We immediately reported this to the manager but nothing changed. The manager informed us that they would remove this switch and place a "blank cover plate" on the switch. This did not help in any way to fix the darkness upon entering the room. We resorted to leaving a table lamp on all the time. 3. Provide instructions for the use of the TV - very different operating system. 4. Desk clerk was more interested in his phone than clients. Customer service training needed.

This property seems to be lacking maintenance. It is close to being a great place to stay, but it has problems everywhere. The laundry rooms are conveniently located, but the clothes drier lint traps were clogged for both driers. Even after I cleaned all of them, drying performance was terrible, as though airflow was very low. We used both driers, with the same result. We only used the washing machine on level 4, but it left the clothes soaking, dripping wet. Our ironing board pad was very worn out, and one bed lamp only worked for a couple of minutes. The breakfast area doesn't have enough tables and chairs. The front desk staff were helpful, but they only know very limited English. It was overall a disappointing stay. It was overall a very

Stayed specifically at this motel because of the "two hot tubs." Extremely disappointed they weren't working. Would have stayed at another hotel had we known. Usually I'm not crabby about such things- I was wondering if it was just a fluke or shut down for the off-season.

The hotel is nice and clean. The only reason for 4 stars is the hottub was not fully functional. Continental breakfast was wonderful.

First thing I noticed walking in here was the strong mildew smell. Our room smelled strong of a perfume to cover another smell. Bathroom was so dirty and hadn’t been clean. The small shampoo bottle was half empty already. Nothing had been sanitized, everything was sticky. They definitely cut corners because there were no bags in the waste baskets. Toilet paper was near empty. Shower curtain rod was falling off the wall, shower mat had black marks all over it. Air conditioner wouldn’t work right. Kept turning off and on every couple seconds. Tv was very outdated and only has a few channels. The only semi good thing I have to say is that the bed was comfy but the sheets seemed to have been used and they just made the bed. Breakfast wasn’t very appealing either. They definitely cut corners on cleaning here. I will never stay at a Howard Johnson again. Photos online were very misleading.

For starters,we checked rating which was like 8.2.. read the first couple reviews which were great. I checked into room 233 and my son checked into 430. Immediately live bed bugs were in room 430 and we took pillow with bug down to front desk. Clerk took the pillowcase off and put my kids in 406. Pool had excessive amount of chlorine in it. Rooms were clean except behind doors and in corners. My bedsheets had brown marking on them and put on sloppy and inside out..just lazy on houskeeping..After reading more reviews, more about bed bugs on 2nd floor and 4th floor, i had geebie jeebies all night and actually I stayed in my car because I did not want to offend my son and his wife..I spoke to the kid at checkout the following morning and my children were not around. His comment was, " well this is South Dakota and we have bugs!" I definitely would not recommend this place to a friend! I have a vidoe if youd like to see it!

The people shine here. Staff are genuinely friendly! The photos online are much nicer than the facility is in person, but the price is fair and it is almost easy to overlook given the pluses. The shower sucks. The pressure is below average and to adjust the handle to get hot water is exhaustive. I didn’t really get a hot shower. There is a tub, however. The king bed was clean and very comfortable with lots of pillows. TV is a bit wonky to use but ok. The breakfast features a pancake machine AND two Belgian waffle makers (a first) along with the usual eggs, meats, bread-y stuff and oatmeal. It’s nicely done. (Kids would love all the waffle condiments!!) Parking is easy and free and the place feels safe.

Even the streaming option on the TV went out sometimes. Hotel staff are aware and said they are working with the vendor to resolve. Other than that, it was great!

We had a good experience here as a family of 5. Nothing overly special but also nothing that would make me not stay again. Pool was clean and the room was clean. The tv we had was a newer model then most but had a terrible picture. The shower was by far the worst part very little pressure. However the pool shower worked better so it wasn't too big of a deal.

The only thing really wrong was the snow removal near the entryway in the rear of the property that day. There was none. Even if there was only one staff member it wouldn't have taken much to at least clear a small path around the entrance. For those with disabilities, it was a challenge to navigate. The night clerk was rude at times when asked simple questions.
