Best hotel connected to waterpark

I got charged twice from the hotel and hotels.com so had to deal with that but the person was helpful and fixed it after I realized. I also didn’t know there were parking fees. Otherwise, loved that the waterpark is included, nice hotel, great breakfast. The Hispanic breakfast worker was amazing and helpful as it closed at 9 and she helped the late-comers still get waffles. The other lady wanted to just shut it down right away. Although this was the cheapest hotel connected to the waterpark, it was still a bit expensive but also Sturgis time so figures. We will choose this waterpark hotel over the rest in the future as long as price remains cheaper!

This was the best hotel we stayed at in our 2 week trip. It was incredibly expensive, though $100 cheaper than going through the hotel itself. The water park was really cool, and our 14 year old boys loved it. The room was spacious and cool, with ample room to move. I was really pleased with the size, to be honest, as it was probably double a normal room in another hotel. The carpet was sticky in places, and that was gross. The door knob to the bathroom fell off, and I had to put it back on. And I’m sure the showers are meant to look classy, but they are completely ridiculous and impractical, and you get water everywhere. That being said, it was worth it for the water park. Important to note: the water park is a HAUL from your room. Prepare for a hike.

The room was disgusting, dirty clothes left on floor of closet from previous guest, dirty sbot rag with blood under pillow on bed from previous guest, old food caked on cabinets and walls of kitchen area, half the lights burnt out. No shampoo or bodywas in bottles. Been better off staying at a 50 uear old motel.

Our stay was great, the room was very clean, supplies stocked and the front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Only negative comments about our stay: Shower design caused a lot of water to pool on the bathroom floor, and the rug was soaked. Also they need more luggage carts for the amount of visitors.

Be aware that the hotel does not stick to the agreed upon price and will not correct it. They also did not mention that housekeeping is by request only and that there is no longer a manager’s reception despite it being advertised on the website. I had to ask about when breakfast was and about water park access. It would have been nice to be told those things at check in. The coffee and tea in the afternoon was cold (clearly just left over from breakfast). Both the clerk and manager were quite rude about the discrepancy in the price. For the price point I expected more.
