Guest Reviews
- Jessica (2/5): - Very unorganized staffing. Terrible smelling rooms and I couldn’t breathe. Slept in my car most of the night. Do not waste your time staying here!
- John (2/5): - Arrived at 915pm and were closed note referred to go across the street to another motel
- Tammy (6/5): Disappointed - Due to lack of staff we had to check in at a different hotel and then go back. We reserved a room on line on the first floor due to disabilities but was not given one. Rooms were not available because they hadn't been cleaned.
- Trudy (2/5): - No one at hotel office even though sign said open till 11pm, called number 3 times before someone would answer, was told go across road to get key and oh by the way your room is in next building. Not impressed at all, will not be back
- Sharlene (8/5): - Our stay was clean and comfy…sadly the grill isn’t open on Tuesdays.
- Sue (6/5): - We arrived later in the evening, and it took the person behind the counter 3 tries to get us a functional key - she ended up switching what room we were in after the first 2 didn’t work.
The room had a funky almost musty smell to it, and the bedspread didn’t smell the best either.
The sheets and the bathroom were both clean.
- sarah (8/5): - A little older property and a bit run down but it was a pleasant stay. Breakfast was just coffee, milk, OJ, and some chocolate/powdered donuts. Pool had no water in it. Staff was very friendly. I would stay again.
- Mary Jo Pfeifer (8/5): - No breakfast was made available. Beds were very comfortable. Lots of channels to watch on the tv. A good deal for the price! The shower was excellent.
- Cory (8/5): - Room was clean, bed was comfy
- Gary (8/5): - Room was better than expected
- Sandra (10/5): - When we checked in that evening the lady and I’m assuming her daughter was so so nice!!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Shoo fly - The hotel is close to the Badlands and other tourist destinations. There are a couple gas stations across the street. The ladies at the office were very nice and changed our room from the second floor to the first when I mentioned a mobility condition. It is an older hotel and we had many flies in our room. We noticed fly traps hanging from the second floor railing, so it appears the property is aware of the problem. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. They offered coffee and donuts for breakfast.
- Jeff (8/5): - This is a basic budget motel. It was clean and comfortable and reasonably priced. We opted to stay here the night before we visited Badlands National Park. It was a few miles east of the park.
- Kathleen (10/5): - This is our second time at the Budget Inn. Both times we just needed a place to stay for a night and the price is right, we had a room big enough for 5 people. Nothing fancy but fulfills a need. Nice people.
- Renee (8/5): - They were working on the road so they can't help that. But they could post the pool will not be open. Period!
- Lakota (8/5): - The property was old but the staff kept it clean and sufficient. I had my own air spray so that helped with the odor of old room/cleaning products smell. I was woken by the sound of the tv in the unit above. The old window air conditioner was effectively keeping my room temperature cool and the convenience of right off the highway and across from a restaurant was okay. The kindness of the staff made my stay pleasant.
- ray (8/5): - Nice room for the price as an overnight stay in roadtrip
- WILLIAM (6/5): - It was fine for what I used it for.
- Chris (6/5): - Motel was acceptable. somewhat dated. Front desk staff was cordial and effective. Internet is very limited. There is very limited dining available in very small town. The one redeeming feature for this motel is its closeness to the badlands. Unfortunately there is no dining opportunity in town, other than service station snacks for late arrivals after around 7pm.
- Faith (10/5): -
The young lady at the desk was very nice and knowledgeable. She truly has what it takes to be in the hospitality business.
- Michelle (8/5): Great value, very clean. - Surprisingly clean and quiet inside. Safe. Great value for a simple and clean motel. It looks sketchy from the outside but it did the job just fine. Bed was super comfortable, air conditioner was perfect, shower was great. No frills, not fancy.
- David (2/5): - We didn't stay,
- Angela (8/5): - Convenient
- 779beccab (2/5): BEWARE!! THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF!! - We stayed at this motel in September 2024. We are in our 60’s and love to travel. We have driven all 50 states and some of Canada and we have never had a motel complain about us or keep our deposit before so I have never been worried about the extra deposit that some motels charge. When we checked in this motel they told us that there would be a refundable deposit of $50 and I was ok with that. Well, through the rest of our road trip I noticed that they had charged us twice, once for the room and also $52.10 for the deposit. When we got home I called and asked why and they accused us of staining a bedspread so badly that laundry could not get it out. I am disputing the extra charge because we did no such thing. This seems to me a very dishonest way for this motel to make extra money. I don’t recommend staying there at all.
- karenjG4636UA (6/5): Pretty sure the place is haunted - Room was clean, and the staff was friendly. We visited outside of the tourist season so we pretty much had the place to ourselves. One other person stayed in this older hotel the second night otherwise the parking lot was empty. We were on the first floor and though a budget motel the Room was fine, beds comfortable enough, so no complaints. However all night long for two nights in a row there was heavy thumps and running footsteps coming from the room upstairs directly above us. I also heard babies babbling and crying through the walls. But sounded like I was listening through a phone. I went outside to see if there were people staying upstairs and the whole place was dark. No one. I asked the front desk lady when checking out if anyone had stayed above us. Nope. Room 210 is haunted.
- Donald (6/5): - On the outside it is very old but inside the room was clean and comfortable.
- Diane (8/5): - The room was basic but clean. Close to gas station and sit down dining.
- Arthur A (10/5): - It was there for me when I needed a place to stay
- Lisa (10/5): - The staff were really great. This is a family run place and was good enough for us for a night's stay.
- Julie (4/5): - No one was on staff for check in, had to go to the hotel across the street. Room was old, but clean. No breakfast was available.
- Robin (10/5): Not the worst! - It's a "tired" motel where years ago you would pay $49.00 for. It was clean & quiet. No breakfast, but a coupon for the restaurant across the street, that didn't open until 7AM.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Stay at America's Best Value - We arrived at the hotel that we booked and it was closed down. We were instructed to check into the America's Best Value, across the street. We were on the list as having a reservation and they accommodated us (others were not as lucky). Our stay at America's Best Value worked for our needs, but I cannot rate the Sundowner as they were closed (the place looked extremely rundown and was not desirable).
- Robert (2/5): - Closed !
- Linda (4/5): - Office was closed when we arrived around 9 pm. Note on office door advised us to go over to neighboring hotel for check-in. When we returned with room key it was difficult to find our room as it was located in an adjacent building, which we were not told of. Room was fine, clean, comfortable bed. Not good outdoor lighting, especially at adjacent building. Was advertised as continental breakfast 7 am to 930 am. When we arrived at office next morning at 7, office was still closed and, thus, no breakfast.
- Jennifer (8/5): - The girls at the front desk were very nice
- Gary (6/5): - Close to I-90
- curtson02 (4/5): Not a bargain - This was kind of odd. I didn't get there until 9:30pm. My wife made the reservation for me and they didn't tell her that check-in ended at 10pm so I was lucky to make it in time. If I had arrived after 10pm, I would have had to go an America's Best Value across I-90 to check-in. There is no attendent on duty after 10pm if a problem comes up. The only place to eat nearby was the convenience store across the street. Luckily, I walked over there at 9:55pm because they also closed at 10pm. The room was clean but showed it's age. The fitted sheet was worn out and came off during the night. The a/c unit was noisey. After a not-very-good night's sleep, I got up early and left, not bothering to find out what the breakfast was like. It cost more than it was worth.
- Anna (8/5): - Place is old but I did realized that while booking
Pool should be gone from pictures because isn’t operable for years
Price high for the condition and breakfast offered
However room was clean bathroom too
Sheets smelled good
Lots of flies in the room -it was the biggest issue
- James (8/5): - Pool not working. Rooms very good. Place to sleep very good
- mike (8/5): - Nice hotel in the middle of nowhere making it what we needed.
- Henry (8/5): - It was alright
- Tricia (6/5): - Hotel was clean and staff was friendly but there was no pool and the building was run down
- Anna (8/5): - I was pleasantly surprised because I really did not know what to expect at this hotel as it was a last minute booking. The staff was very nice, the room was clean, and I felt safe in the environment.
- Heather M (2/5): - One of the main reasons we chose this hotel was for the pool. When we arrived we were told the pool was no longer being maintained/used. The room we booked (family room with additional beds) was over booked and they did not have a room for us. They offered us 2 rooms to make up for this, but one of those rooms was not cleaned from the previous renter. We ended up cramming 6 people in on room with 2 queen beds. The "breakfast" was supposed to be open at 7 AM, but there was nothing there, and coffee wasn't even available until after 8AM. We were VERY disappointed in this hotel and the lack of service provided.
- dennis (10/5): - Parking was sparse for all the cars but they had other spaces available. I would have appreciated some mechanism to ferry our bags to the room.
They were very nice at accommodating us in getting a 1st floor room so my 96 yr young Mom did not have to climb stairs.
- Roland (2/5): - The room has leftover food on the floor, so apparently they don’t vacuum. It has an ancient air conditioner that brings the temperature in the room down to about 90° after 3 hours. I booked a room with two queen beds and a twin, but it only came with two queens. They managed to drag an ancient twin folding bed out of a closet that might be older than me. For $160/night, I’d rather be outside. The staff is friendly enough, but the experience in the room is absolutely miserable. I wish I hadn’t ever booked this room. I highly advise everyone to steer clear of this place.
- Patricia (6/5): - Older hotel. Needs updating and breakfast offered was minimal at best. Hostess miniature donuts and day old bagels.
- Amanda (6/5): Passing thru - There were a tonnof flirs in room. No screen on the window. I couldn't her the girls checking in cause they talk soft. It took 2 to check us in. It seemed they didn't really know what they were doing. Says they have a pool but its drained and looks like it hasnt been filled in a few years. They didnt have much for breakfast, but upon check in you got a coupon to restaurant across street for a complimentary coffee and 35% off bill.
- Verified traveler (2/5): DO NOT STAY HERE! - NOTHING LIKE WHAT WAS ADVERTISED ON HOTELS.COM. Terrible service. Ice machine not working. No refrigerator (declined request for getting one). Run down exterior property. A foot of dirty water in locked up pool.
- DAVID (10/5): - Close to my next destination. Quiet. Room was comfortable. Wifi works well.
- missy (2/5): - Property was the exact opposite of picture. Run down, in need of repair everywhere!!! Did not feel safe.
- Dan (4/5): - The toilet was clotted and smelled so bad. There were so many fliers in the room.
- Bridgett (6/5): No pool - The rooms were fairly clean. The bathroom and the lights function well. Access to a television or cable was not available, and there’s advertisement showing a pool which I was hoping to access. When I got there there is no water in the pool. So that was very disappointing.
- John (6/5): Not really a diamond in the rough - This is an old budget hotel that has been renovated to a large degree. The pool was empty, there were no refrigerator or microwave in the room. The paneling had been recently painted and the carpet appeared nearly new and was clean. The beds were comfortable. Temperature control was managed with a small window unit heat pump the took well over an hour and a half to cool the room down. The facility was basically clean and well maintained, but is clearly an old building. One interesting thing is the proprietor apparently was able to resist the curved shower curtain bar salesman as I saw none of those. Of course, this allowed the shower curtain to continuously stick to my body as I showered. The room prices for the quality of room were not anywhere reasonable. This is clearly a 2/5 star motel, but the rates were at a 4/5 star hotel level. Nonetheless, it was clean, quiet and comfortable. Check-in was very smooth and quick.
- Virginia (4/5): Not worth the price they charged.. - The women working were great. Friendly and very willing to accommodate. But the conditions weren’t the best. Room was full of flies! We got a fly swatter and killed about 30 before we would even try to go to bed. The sink had a leak at the drain, water all over the floor. The bathroom was clean but water pressure in the morning was nonexistent. Could barely flush the toilets let alone try to take a shower. Talked to a gentleman outside who told us there were three hotels in that area, and this was the best. Pool had rain water in it, but not useable. Office didnt open til 7:30 a.m. and we left before that.
- Rebecca (8/5): - Other than there being no water pressure at all on the second floor. The room was great.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Definitely a budget hotel. - After a long day of driving, we made a last minute reservation that resulted in an overbooking for the hotel. We received kind and accommodating customer service to resolve the situation. The hotel is rundown. The pool is a long-distant memory, sitting empty and dilapidated in front of the hotel (I don't know what year that pic is from, but it doesn't seem to be any time recently.) The room was clean to the extent an older room can be. The sheets were itchy, which I think is because they were older and pilly. For us it was the right price for a 12 hour crash before a next day of driving. The breakfast was much more substantial than we expected.
- Douglas (4/5): - I knew going in that the motel was old but it could have been maintained. The pool was empty and the desk said it had not worked for years. The bathroom door would not shut. The air-conditioner barely kept up. The advertised breakfast was cereal and roll and was not served until 0800, which drastically reduces number of people that would ever stay if you are on the road.
- JOYCE (6/5): - It was ok
- 584sheryll (4/5): VERY Basic - The room was clean and the tv worked. There were the positives. The ice machine didn't work. The breakfast was cold and meager. The bathroom door didn't close. It was fine for a night, but not what I expect for the price.
- Andrea (6/5): - I booked this property because it has a pool. Sadly it's not operational nor has been for quite so.e time. I do wish descriptions were more accurate.
- Ruth (8/5): - Everything satisfactory at motel. Town very small with no dining options.
- Moses (8/5): - Easy access off the interstate with friendly staff!!
- G3584GPjohns (2/5): Misleading and dishonest hotel - I stayed here with my family for thankfully only one night. The shower head was on the floor of the tub and the bathroom door would not latch shut. I was told by the owner that the best he could do was give me $10 off my $137 room charge. He made no attempt to fix the shower. My six year old daughter used the lobby pop machine with her own money. When the machine ripped her off, I took her to the front desk to ask for her money back. I was shocked when the girl behind the front desk responded with, "there isn't actually any pop in the pop machine. My jaw hit the floor. My response was to put a note on the machine so nobody else gets ripped off. She said the coin return would give me my money back, as if I was stupid enough to have not already tried that! A trap!!! Oh yeah, and the pool was bone dry, but totally advertised as inviting.
WORST HOTEL ON THE PLANET.
AVOID THIS RIP OFF.
- NY_Obxlover (2/5): Arrived w/ confirmed reservations to find they are closed!! - Showed up today with confirmed reservations, and there’s a sign on the door stating they’re closed! Luckily, we were able to get a room at the America’s Best across the street, and they honored the same price. The woman at America’s Best said that the Budget Host had closed for the winter, and never reopened. It would have been nice to have been informed of their closed status since I had confirmed reservations!
- Alacrout (2/5): If I caught Covid anywhere, it would have been here - I feel bad writing this because I like to stay on the positive side, but this is easily one of the worst hotel/motel experiences I’ve ever had.
We traveled across the country as a family, staying in 17 different hotels/motels along the way. Every single one of them was doing at least a few things differently for the pandemic. There were at least some mask policies (albeit loosely enforced) and a little extra cleaning going on.
This motel acts as if the pandemic doesn’t exist.
Pandemic aside, there’s plenty of other things wrong with this place...
1) Rude/unfriendly staff. When I checked in, there was a guy in front of me. She was friendly and chatted him up about all sorts of random stuff, to the point where I ended up standing there for at least 10 extra mins. Once it was my turn, her attitude went cold and unfriendly. She was very short with me. Part of me appreciated it, as I just wanted to get into my room and she was helping them along. The other part of me wondered why I was being treated differently. I couldn’t help but wonder if it’s because I had a mask on. I was wearing a mask out of respect for her, but that’s the #1 thing anti-maskers don’t understand.
2) The room was filthy. It was easily the worst smelling room I’ve ever stayed in. It was like someone tried to cover up 10 years of cigarette smoke and mold with 10 bottles of Febreze. Terrible.
3) The beds were uncomfortable and falling apart to the point where they’re uneven. You literally lay at an angle. It was ridiculous.
Despite all that, they have a surprisingly decent breakfast. That’s the one positive to this place, aside from the price. I thought about giving them 2 stars because of the breakfast, but everything else was so bad I just can’t.
Luckily, our trip has been over long enough that we know we didn’t catch Covid when traveling across the country. But when we were at Budget Host Sundowner, we knew that if we caught it anywhere, it would probably be there.
- JoLynn (6/5): Not worth the money - Check was good. The shower had a dead spider and hair with other dead bugs in the room. We were on the 1st floor and could hear every footstep of the people in the room above us. We checked in at night and the light switch didn't work inside the door. I had to walk across the room in the dark to look for a lamp.
- Roquemac123 (4/5): Suspicious credit card charge - Stayed with my family at the Sundowner Budget Host Motel in Kodaka, SD. When I got my credit card statement, they had also charged me an extra $100 beside my $98 room charge. I called them and he removed it and credited my account. Had I not called that $100 would be gone. He claimed it was a charge for room damage or smoking in the room. We don't smoke and we left the room in better shape than we found it. Careful, careful. Check your credit card charges after staying there.
- Judy (8/5): An OK stay - Room was comfortable, however, the walls were thin so we could everything going on in the next room. Disappointed that our room didn't have a mini fridge.
- J (4/5): - Very low quality for $175 a night. Low value. Right off interstate.
- Mike (4/5): - No water in the pool. Desk manager very understanding why we cancelled stay.
- Adam (8/5): - A very basic hotel. It was a clean and the wifi was fast enough to watch a hd movie on my laptop. The beds weren't the most comfortable. It was within walking distance to most the restaurants in the very small town of Kadoka and very close to the Badlands National Park.
The continental breakfast consisted of biscuits and gravy, some cereal, oatmeal, bagels, and juice. Nothing crazy, but at least it just wasn't donuts.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Dated and run down. Had a pool but no water. Online pics don’t tell the real story here.
- Verified traveler (8/5): No real complaints - Friendly staff. Beds were okay and room was clean. Not much more one can ask for in a night stay after a long 12 hour drive. If I was going to complain about one thing it would be the lighting in the room but it wasn’t something that would deter me from stopping again.
- RoadGuys2 (4/5): Some dissapointments. - Have stayed here a few times before and gave it a great review. But, that was a few years ago. This visit there were several things that were just off - albeit minor, they add up.
We travelled with another couple whose room was on ground floor with microwave and fridge. Ours was upstairs with niether amenity but at same price.
The remote needed batteries, the coffee pod tray doesn't fit coffee maker (rendering it useless) and the pool was empty and appears to be falling into disrepair. Was really looking forward to that pool.
Otherwise, staff was great, room clean and comfy though overpriced and breakfast was pretty good.
Would stay again if I needed to, but will no longer include this motel in my travel plans.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Room was quiet and clean but in need of an update. Staff was friendly, simple, basic breakfast included. Overpriced but it's in the middle of nowhere so not much competition
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Comfortable bed. Shower water doesn't get too hot, that's for sure. Most things are on their last leg. Clean and safe.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Perfect and cheap for an over night stay.
Most things in K
- 527mechellem (6/5): Okay visit - There really is not a lot at Kadoka. This motel is one of a few. It is opposite two gas stations, a cafe and a subway outlet and that is pretty much it. It has an outdoor swimming pool however when we were there it seemed like all the neighborhood kids had called in for a swim which was nice but we didn't feel comfortable jumping in with them. The room was clean, had most of the usual things but no hairdryer. There was a problem with flies and bugs which the front desk gave us a swatter for. Subway also had a fly problem so it was not just the motel. The wifi was pretty much non existent, front desk tried to fix it but with no luck. Overall this is a nicely kept clean motel for a good price. Could have done without housekeeping knocking just before 8 asking when we were going -veey polite albeit.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I got there and the decor was a nice touch, the front desk was easy to work with. My room was clean, organized, and I had everything I needed. I wish they had some breakfast options for the health conscious. The cleaning staff were friendly. Overall a great stay. I will go back.
- Verdekt (8/5): Good Value - I needed a clean and reasonably priced room before checking into Buffalo Chip Campground tomorrow. This hotel is two hours from Buffalo Chip and half the price of any place available in Rapid City. The bonus for me, I'm towing a 20-foot utility trailer loaded with motorcycles, and this hotel has an adjacent parking lot for trucks.
- Lisa (10/5): - We had to stay unexpectedly due to car trouble. The staff was friendly, and the rooms were clean The pool was sparkling. There is very little in the area, but what there is is within walking distance.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Rooms clean. Breakfast very poor. Not enough seating available for amount of guests. Not enough food available for amount of guests.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Clean, comfortable room. Breakfast was served until 9:00. We got there at 8:30 and many items were gone. It looked like they may have had scrambled eggs. There were still cold hardboiled eggs. Suggest you have early breakfast.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good stop on our trip home, staff was very nice. Like most motels anymore property old and need of updating but clean.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Not worth the price - The room is overpriced for what you receive and it is not that close to the Badlands to charge that much. The room is outdated and dark. The bathroom was not very clean, but this seemed to be the theme in every room I stayed in the past 9 nights.
- Heidi (10/5): - This was so clean and thoughtful! The beds are so comfy! Hot shower! Even though it is a motel , it has the heart of a hotel!
- Pat (8/5): - Should put photos of motel on Hotels.com
- Sbaccus (2/5): Pets included! - The hotel description says pets allowed, but I didn’t think they would be provided for us. My family was woken up to a scream at 4:30am when an unsuspecting bathroom user discovered they were sharing said bathroom with a mouse. Lovely. I knew this wasn’t going to be a 5-star hotel, but I was hoping to at least get a full night’s sleep.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Convenient, but cleaning required - Check-in was quick. Pet friendly and close to the highway (the reason we selected this property for the night). No pictures posted on the hotels.com for a reason! The bathroom (shower/tub) was not cleaned - dirt/sand/debris was in the tub. Coffee stains/spill around the sink area.
- 105captainj (4/5): Comedy of Errors! - Room was not heated, it was 51F when we entered the room! Turned on the heater, when we returned from dinner several hours later it was warm but we could not regulate the heat, it was 75F, we had a hard time getting the temperature cooler.
Was told to let the water run a long time if we wanted hot water. Never did get hot water that night, we were told the next morning there was a water flood in the basement.
Had a hard time getting the room door to shut, was as if the door did not quite fit the frame, but if we pulled it forcefully and quickly it closed.
Grateful, tho that we didn't have to sleep in the car that night; not too many places to stay!
- deansimmentals (8/5): Owner - Thanks for the good nights rest! It’s Just off I 90 , the outside looked outdated. However!The inside of a motel is what matters! Just passing thru a good clean room , firm bed with a hot good pressured shower.
- Dawn (10/5): Large and comfortable - Large room with two Queen size beds and one Twin. Big enough for a family of five. Comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. Only downfall was the spotty WiFi.
- David (6/5): A decent place to rest in your trip - We badly needed a place to sleep after 600 miles driving a Uhaul moving van. They were kind, helpful and I could sleep. The breakfast was pretty basic but I didn’t stop for that. If you’re plumb tuckered out this is a place for a nights rest on the freeway
- WyomingCountryGirl (10/5): Super Clean Room - We are traveling for a funeral so we were t able to pre-plan our stays. We were happy to find this motel having a very clean room. It also had a comfortable bed. There was a welcoming & friendly staff. Pet friendly motel. No frills but a welcomed rest at the end of a long day of driving. Would recommend.
- richlee1975 (6/5): Budget hotel in name only but not bad for the area - Budget hotel that is online priced over 100.00 for the night during late July season. While we were waiting a man was checking in ahead of us but didn't have reservation when asked for price the front desk guy didn't say it out loud but write it down on paper and showed him. The place is elderly but clean with refridge and micron way t in room. Rooms are in demand this time of year as rooms can be few and far between and fill early as on way to Rushmore and Sturgis and the Wounded Knee Massacre. Breakfast is slim continental but I was impressed the bread and bagels were higher quality than budget.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Trip to Bandlands National Parm - We stayed here on our way to the Badlands National Park. It’s a very old basic motel. It is very clean and a perfect location if you are going to badlands. Warning that there is nothing around this motel except a gas station,Subway and Sunset Grill. We ate at the sunset grill and it was fine. If you’re looking for luxury look elsewhere. If your looking for functional and clean this is a good choice
- Herbert (10/5): Great Place to stay - Nice facilities with great staff and service.
- BazRasty (6/5): Not as bad - I usually stay at 4 or 5 star properties but chose this place in a pinch. Although the room was very dated, warm and humid, and the beds were made up with thick comforter and blanket (it is not winter) the stay was ok. The price, I found, was high when comparing to a Best Western Plus I stayed in the night before for 20 bucks more. It was clean enough for what it was.
- Mary (6/5): - It little overpriced for the accommodations. Not much to do in the area. Should only be used as a place to sleep. The free breakfast was not much. Jelly was stale.
