all in all not a bad place, me personally probably won't stay again. They really need to up date there room descriptions. the bed was very hard I came home so sore I could barly walk. I stayed for 5 days and half that time the pool was closed for repair. I stayed her so my grandkids could swim as there is not much else to do at this time of year in Fort Dodge.

Friendly family managers greeted us at check-in. We requested a first floor room and they verified the room was clean before giving us the keys. The king bed room was large with a comfortable chair, fridge and microwave. There were nice lounge areas and chairs outside for relaxing or smoking. The breakfast was a nice set up with a hot area, waffles, drinks and cold options like yogurt. This is the nicest Ft Dodge hotel that I’ve stayed at in this price range. We will stay here again.

I was traveling back from Aberdeen N.D. and needed a place to rest up before hitting the road again. I was delighted to find the hotel so clean and well kept. I wasn't expecting it since I was just looking for a place that was affordable for some rest. Bathroom was clean and there was a deep bathtub great for some relaxation after eight hours of driving. Hot breakfast in the morning with plenty of options. There is a pool, although I didn't get a chance to swim. Nice beds, cold AC. It was quiet while I was staying. I highly recommend
