Pro's - convenient as a jump point for all black hills attractions. Has Bar & bar food, continental (bread, bread and more bread) breakfast, frig, mic & coffee maker. Bed was comfortable. Bath is good with hot water and pressure. Cons - be sure you are not placed on floor 1 or 2. Extremely loud people, jumping above you and down the hall, very loud kids above you, beside you, running up and down - nuts. Even the adults who were there not for the waterpark (saw a bunch of groups there for work details), were also super loud at very early hours. Parking lot full of green and tobacco smokers. Kids constantly left to get their own buffet breakfast who just wiped their snotty noses with their hands, dropped food and utensils on floor and then put them back, etc. It was surprising, and not. (And dont call me Karen, I have kids and had them with me, but what I saw over and over would make anyone comment). Water park - fun for kids. Not so much for adults. Extremely limited seating - or reserve a table for over $100 / day. Crazy. Large, hot tub was nice except for kids jumping and playing in it (not so great to relax). Would I stay again? Yes, but with better knowledge of what to expect I would make requests for high floor and know to expect total chaos for breakfast and water park time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, it’s not a new shiny hotel but has been well maintained, especially given the volume of tourists on a daily basis. I was impressed. The staff was awesome, the breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options. The water park was spectacular, our grandson (who has been to several different parks) rated it at the top. Thank you LaQuinta Inn.

Cleaning lady left a wet dirty towel in shower along with a long black hair. People above me had kids running and jumping and crying non-stop. Are your walls and floors paper thin? Just very sad that the staff do not pay more attention to the little things, which are big things to paying customers.

This hotel was completely misrepresented on Expedia. The listing claimed the room could accommodate five guests and included a pull-out couch—neither of which was true. The hotel has no rooms that fit five people and no pull-out couches at all. When we raised the issue, the front desk told us to go to Walmart and buy an air mattress, then blamed Expedia for the inaccurate listing. The room itself was also in poor condition: the bathroom door didn’t close, the floors were dirty, and there was thick dust and grime on the light switches and outlets. Very disappointing experience. While my children enjoyed the water park, it was shocking to see the lack of lifeguards and how little attention they paid to the water. Some areas had no lifeguard presence at all, and there were no visible rules posted. When lifeguards did intervene, they explained the issue, but did so by yelling at both kids and adults. It felt disorganized and unsafe.

Pros- The rooms were nice sized with plenty of space for luggage and 4 people. They also allowed us to check in a little early. Breakfast was very good. Cons- I was not pleased that we never had any room service for 3 days. I was ok conserving the towels and bed linens but the room desperately needed trash cans emptied. Too many hotels fed into the hotel waterpark. It was overly crowded in the evenings, with only a few slides and a very compact space. There were only a handful of tubes for the lazy river so kids just swam and splashed and pushed. The hot tub was overrun with young children. The sounds of life guard whistles were a constant shrill. I do NOT recommend the waterpark.
