    Bathroom had rust coming down from the handle in the bathtub and the bathtub mat you could see footprints on it stained.

    Room was very spacious. We stayed at Home2Suites as well and liked our room way better at La Quinta.

    Clean front desk was friendly informational. One person in the grill was very rude during when we were placing an order he was talking to one of the girls didn’t pay any attention to us focus on us or anything he took our order while he was still talking to her and this happened twice we arrived on Sunday evening so he was working on Sunday evening I never did get his name

    The lifeguards spent most of their time looking at their phones and not on watching the swimmers. They should not even be allowed to have their phones with them while they are working. They also needed to be in charge of telling people when to go down on the water slides instead of people just going down whenever. These are big safety issues. I really hope this gets looked into. There are a lot of younger swimmers there. It would also be nice to have the waterpark open a little later; at least until 10. It’s an area where many families explore Mount Rushmore and other nearby attraction attractions and by the time we get back the waterpark is already closed.

    Great breakfast and helpful staff.

    The bedsheet is heavily pilled, it bothered me a lot but I didn't ask for a new sheet as it was late. Not sure if it's a common problem or just coincidence

    Big clean room with free admission to the water park, had great time.

    It was good but wish they changed it up some we were there 5 days and biscuits and gravy were on the menu 4 of the days. Liked they had Keith making the waffles so there wasn't a long line or mess.

    They messed up on the room. Gave us a double queen vs the king suite. They did fix it though right away.

    The breakfast was earlier then last time we were there and it was a good hot breakfast. Also liked the Waterpark passes were included.
