Vacations Close To Arnolds Park

Very disappointed. Baymont used to be reliably clean, well maintained, reasonably priced hotels. Sioux Falls was in horrible repair. The sheets were clean with no sign of bed bugs but that is where the positives begin & end. After I checked the mattress & linens my DH informed me there had been a $50 damages hold put on our credit card. WTH? So I got out my phone before we even brought in our luggage because I had already noticed a baseboard trying to fall off the wall holding on for dear life with what appeared to be yellowed glue. There was toothpaste spatter on the faucet, some mystery goo in the shower and the walls had not been wiped down in recent memory. The lighting could only be likened to my hall nightlight at home. Forget applying makeup. The worst though was the odor. The AC was pumping out a musty, rotten smell. Possibly the filter &/or the drain needed cleaning. I went to the car & got my emergency disinfectant spray & rag for toilet, knobs, faucets, etc. (things we had to touch) as it was too late to cancel so we were stuck paying for a dismal room. Breakfast was what I expected after the state of the room: hard, tiny biscuits, bagged slimy gravy & generally a sad, un-appetizing assortment of despair. When we checked out I requested the room be inspected before we left & was sure to mention I had photos of before & after our stay. We were not going to be held liable for the shoddy maintenance of the property. Do Not Recommend especially considering what we paid

Good location . Recommend

Great breakfast! Room was clean and spacious. Front desk staff was helpful.

For the age of this property, the cleanliness of the room and the quality of the staff made our positive impression coming back this week for another unexpected family funeral in the area.

The room smells bad
