Disappointed
Room we were given had not been cleaned at all. Bed wasn’t made and dirty towels everywhere. Replacement room was clear at the back of the hotel with two small beds.

Overnight place to rest
Overnight stay after a hike in the black hills. Room was perfect and comfortable. Breakfast was not so good; coffee was nasty, the sausages were not fully cooked, but of course there’s always cold cereal to save the day!

2/10 Poor

I appreciate having a place to stay, it was very good staff at certain times of the day. I had a rude experience with one on Saturday evening. On Saturday night I discovered a needle above my door. I had no hand soap in the room that we had moved into.
