The room and building as a whole were very clean, no complaints there. The bed and sheets are comfortable, but the pillows are fairly flat. The water pressure in the shower is incredible, but the shower curtain doesn't block it all. So, we had a permanent wet spot on the carpet just outside the bathroom door. The AC unit was incredibly quiet, we would have had no problem leaving it on high all night. Finally, breakfast was better than most, it runs from 6-10am.

Hang on...this is a mere $10 more than a rather miserable looking hotel in town. I'll take it! This place is a knockout. Typical small town corner building completely remodeled - and remodeled well - to be a B&B. High ceilings...old time feel...nice furnishings. I loved the spacious salon / dining room. Would be nice when the fire is lit. Only thing missing, and this might be a seasonal / regional thing, is a decanter of sherry for the guests. That's always a warm touch. Our room was very comfortable. The bed was good and the bathroom - shower only - had all we needed tucked away in a cabinet. Cute faux fireplace. Kim is an attentive but not intrusive host. The breakfast for our visit was French Toast with sausage and fresh fruit. It was fine, but here is where an otherwise excellent place falls a tad short. B&Bs are more of a pampering event. Cream for the coffee should not be skim or 1% milk. Syrup should be genuine maple syrup. French Toast should be made with a dense quality bread...maybe with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg...not just plain fried because that's pretty flavorless if you're avoiding the "syrup." HOWEVER...the fruit mix was exceptional. Best I've ever had. Every single bite was heaven. Would I return? Absolutely. It was a lovely stay. Wish we'd had more time to hang out downstairs. It's just nice to sit in a lovely room. DeSmet is a very small town with seemingly only the Ingalls attraction to draw people from afar but still...there's something charming about it. The people are exceptionally friendly.

Our overnight stay was pleasant and quiet. We had seen a billboard on the interstate earlier in the day hyping their WiFi and waffles. The wifi worked very well and we had our choice of two types of waffle mix along with a pair of irons to make them for breakfast. The waffles were good but not great. A little soggy for my taste but perhaps their recommended cooking time is conservative to prevent burnt waffles. Parking is in a large somewhat shared lot with our businesses but no problem finding a space. The hotel location is right next to the interstate and a little noisy but not bothersome.

The Good Immaculately clean hotel-- our room was very clean, modern and comfortable. Hotel bar--we received a BOGO drink coupon at check in. Nice touch. Comp breakfast-- hot and cold items. Eggs, sausage, pastries, whole fruit, yogurt, oatmeal, biscuits and gravy. Something for everyone. Very nice. Coffee with flavored creamers! The (few) Negatives Price--I travel for a living and the $155/night price tag is steep for a small town hotel. For full transparency, I did book the same day. Still, this price tag is high. But clearly they can have this price and people still book. Staffing-- the same young lady who checked us in also was the bartender who served our drink in the bar. There was a bell that you could ring to get her to both locations. She had to rely on the bell as you could not see either location from the other. I felt sorry for her. Would for sure stay here again in spite of these few negatives. Was a nice experience.
