With 3 kids, appreciated that the pool was open and available. Had the biggest tv in our room! Room was clean and comfy. There was a hole in the bathroom door where it lined up with the iron that was hanging on the wall, didnt impact us but not a good look. Was told breakfast was 6 or 630 to 9 but when I went down early, there was a note saying it would be 8. It was Thanksgiving morning so understandable. But then it was the same thing the next morning, breakfast not starting till 8. It still closed up at 9 so doesnt give you a lot of time if you are making waffles, etc. There were not a lot of guests so that also may be part of the reason for the shortened time frame. Overall, it was a good experience. Hotel is neat, clean, comfortable and a good deal for a family!

Room and hotel was clean. Hot tub and pool were filthy and hot tub was not working. I had called before the reservation were made and they said the hot tub was working. Went down the next morning, label on timer hot tub was not working. Plus the dirtiness of the pool and hot tub was disgusting. When i asked the staff they said the hot tub had not been working in awhile but we could still sit in the warm water.

It was convenient to being in town. Nice little restaurant/bar next door in Tippy Canoes. Hotel is very outdated. Had to unplug light to use Keurig machine in room. No usb plugs in room. Stains on carpet and holes in wall from hairdryer needing to be moved. Needs some updates. Continental breakfast was terrible. Orange and apple juice were both fermented. Milk was sour. Yogurt, cream, butter were all frozen. Cereal was stale. Not enough room for parking when people bring in trailers that take up 1-4 spots.

Arrived 15 min early. Was told couldn’t check in. Left and came back and then it took 12 minutes to get checked in?! Got to both rooms given and furniture was pulled away from walls and multiple mouse traps along the walls. With the 15 min of delay the rooms could’ve been put back together for us. No hot food was provided for breakfast though the equipment was there, sitting empty. VERY DISAPPOINTING STAY. WILL NOT STAY THERE AGAIN.

We chose this location outside of STILLWATER MN to be a bit more out in the country and so I would have a lot of area to exercise our service dog during down time when my wife may be resting; lots of easy access to many of the area's attractions...train, boats, Stillwater, Osceola. There is really now attraction within walking distance as the property is just really out in the country, but I really enjoyed our stay. I did not give them notice that we had a service animal, but they never said anything

We booked this hotel because of the proximity to the train depot and restaurant next door, but will not stay here again. My child got sick from the breakfast juice that then tasted fermented and old. There is a playground set on the property that my son went to go play on but then had signs that hotel guests are not allowed to use it, which was a major disappointment. The pet charge listed on the booking site is listed for $20 a night but the hotel would not honor the price and informed me I had to pay $30 a night. After not authorizing this amount, I was charged anyway and now am having to dispute with my credit card company to have the charge reversed. Do not recommend this hotel after our awful experience especially for family stay. We had a horrible experience and unfriendly service
