Inside rooms are nice

We were originally in room 117. It is one of the rooms that opens to the outside. I woke up to find my room had flooded. The carpet was completely soaked. The gentleman at the desk was very friand was able to switch us to. King suite for the rest of our stay. That room was very nice compared to the other one. I also wonder if this is a known issue because the first room had an odd smell. They shouldn’t be booking those rooms at all. The pool was nice except it was over chlorinated. My eyes burned just sitting in there. They need a waffle or pancake maker in the breakfast room. We ended up buying breakfast several mornings.

Was hard to tell if the room was always musty or if it was the unusual high humidity. The air conditioning could not keep up. Pool area was 100 degrees not what one needs when the outside temperature was pushing 100. Friendly and helpful staff. With a small child just out of walking range of the down town strip.

Situated in the heart of downtown, just a stone's throw away from the iconic Mount Rushmore, this location offers a vibrant atmosphere with a variety of shops, thrilling zip lines, and exciting water slides nearby. Guests can enjoy a refreshing swim in the on-site pool, which features a deep end reaching 5 feet, providing plenty of space for relaxation and enjoyment. Whether you're looking for adventure or a leisurely day by the water, this spot has it all right at your fingertips.
