Sioux Falls Homestays

My wife and I stayed 1 night, arriving before 3PM to a welcoming receptionist who checked my ID, processed my payment while I filled out a liability paper, then presented the key cards. We took the elevator to the 3rd floor. Room #316 had new carpet, clean with a comfortable king, desk & chair, easy chairs, clothes bar and medium sized refer with micro & coffee machine. Opening window view to the side parking lot. The fully outfitted bathroom had a tub/shower and powerful fan. The medium sized TV had a hotel guide with 52 channels(CNBC, CNN, ESPN, HGTV, MSNBC, networks, etc). Good secure wifi, ample outlets, good lighting and under window AC/heat. The 7AM breakfast was very good: OJ, apples, raisin bran, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, biscuits and gravy, oatmeal, waffles, bagels, bread and coffees. Overall, we had a quiet night’s sleep and enjoyed our stay.

A giant red flag was the prominent sign at check-in with a detailed explanation of their refund policy (boiled down, essentially, to ”no refunds”)... Clearly many guests are dissatisfied with their accommodations. It would seem likely for good reason. My experience started with a horrible check in. The clerk found my reservation, and informed me that I had been ”upgraded” to a suite because they were oversold. Then her computer monitor went blank. Rather than give me a room key and let me get settled as she worked to fix it as I suggested (since she had, after all, already seen I had a room and knew which type), I had to stand there for 25 minutes while she worked with her manager to try to reboot the system. When I finally got my key, I traveled down drab hallways in need of fresh paint to find my suite. My immediate impression was the ”suite” had furniture that was so badly stained and disgusting (see photos) that I'm pretty sure you could find much fresher items curbside on trash day. Later, when I went to bed, I discovered the sheets had a ”baked on” crusty material on one side of the bed (sort of visible in photo). I'd guess it was food that survived the wash and got dried in, but I'm not really sure. I'm not sure how anyone folding the sheet from the wash or putting it on the bed could not notice, but nothing at this place suggests a great deal of care or concern is put into the guests' experience. During the evening, I found the hotel wifi so overloaded that I couldn't really use it - I was able to pull down 1.3 Mb/s at the most. Although it worked better in the morning. The toilet was also running every few minutes, with no amount of handle jiggling able to stop it. There are literally at least six motels within a short walk of this place. It's unfathomable that at least one, if not multiple, would be a much, much, much better choice.

The rooms are more spacious and the facilities are newer. There is a small balcony that overlooks the outdoors. The hotel is very close to Su Waterfall Park, walking distance, breakfast is also quite rich, more affordable!

This is located right along the river and you have to get out there and go for a walk. The path leads all the way down to the falls. It is worth the walk - it is only about 6 blocks or so. The artwork or sculpture right out back is really cool. I am not an art guy, but that is cool and they change the lights on it every night.

Was there one night for business. The gentleman that checked us in was very warm and friendly and check in went smooth. The room was much larger than expected and the bed was very comfortable. I will definitely stay here again when I return. The plus is also the short ride to the airport!

Was very inviting. Had a real cool water park inside but didn't use it. Had a good night at Boss Pizza and next morning had a great breakfast there. When checking out I asked the desk to call me a cab. She started to but then asked me where I was going. I told her the airport so she got me a free shuttle to the airport. Only thing I would recommend is that if you give veteran's discounts, you should ask the guest if they were a veteran so they could receive it. I kept forgetting to ask.
