My stay was disappointing from the moment I checked in. Instead of being greeted with a friendly smile, I was met with what appeared to be an annoyed, irritated attitude that made me feel unwelcome.

The room itself wasn’t especially clean, and the TV didn’t work. When I called the front desk to report the issue, I wasn’t offered an apology or a solution. The response I received was simply, “Yeah, we know,” which made it seem like the problem had been ignored rather than addressed.

The hotel also advertised a continental breakfast, but there wasn’t one. Instead, guests were expected to purchase breakfast separately. If a complimentary continental breakfast isn’t actually offered, the advertising should reflect that.

Overall, the lack of customer service, the condition of the room, and the misleading breakfast advertisement made for a very disappointing experience. I wouldn’t stay here again unless significant improvements are made.

Very large hotel whose main clients are oilfield workers. Room was very clean, staff was friendly and efficient. Included breakfast was very limited - toast, cereal, coffee, but extensive made to order breakfast available for purchase. Non-smoking hotel but smokers were just outside the front door, yuck.

Room was clean but staff never cleaned it the whole time we were there. No microwave. They didn't believe us that there wasn't one. They said that every room had a microwave. Ours did not! We asked if they could get one from another room. They said they would check storage . Requested it at check in didn't get it until last night we were there. When they finally brought it the plug did not reach the outlet so we had no microwave. We called the front desk and said we were going to move it to a spot that the plug would reach to. They requested that we didn't move it because it was a liability.Front desk staff is spread very thin. Hard for them to meet all requests. Chef was amazing 5 stars. His staff had not taken the time to learn English which was frustrating for us and them.1 star. There is no hot tub or pool which is too bad. It is an amazing hotel(bar& casino) but no hot tub sux.
Breakfast was amazing but should be included in roomrate like other motels.
The grounds were nice except the dog area was on a hill and slick. Should have a fence to close it off from the parking lot.Outside the main doors there was a nice bench but people didn't use the ash tray and by 10 o'clock at night the garbage was overflowing.
Again not enough staff.
Love the place even tho. No microwave ruined our trip.Our Grandson's team won the whole tournament which made it worth the trip!!!

We thought a breakfast was included with the room as it had been one of the best in the past. It was a continental breakfast with no protein. Hot breakfast was at a cost… not cheap. The toilet didn’t flush properly and my husband had to get a plunger from the front desk. People leave at a very early time and there was a lot of noise in the early hours of the morning. But the price was right and the room was clean. Nice staff.

The continental breakfast was basically nonexistent as compared to our stay two years ago. There was no yogurt or fruit juice and the weekend cook was not helpful. The pancake machine was not functioning, small selection of muffins that were sitting on the counter half opened.We went to local store and purchased breakfast muffins after the first morning. During our four night stay we didn't not have anyone service our room. This was a drastic change from our last visit. Even though your motel is very convenient for us it is doubtful we will return.

The ac/heater was quiet and had no pings or pops and worked well and the shades closed well to keep the light out for the most part. Being in the ground floor and window facing the parking lot. I didn’t get any noise from the close by highway. Overall it was a good room

Breakfast wasn’t available, parking lot was lit nicely and parking was ok, because it was mostly occupied by bakken oil field workers.

On the last day there was a lot of little fruit flies in our room (144) and a stink smell. So myself and my family had to pack up early and check out and stayed at another hotel…ALL IN ALL THE STAY WAS INCONVENIENCE due to the bugs.
