In regards to the reviewer that gave this motel a terrible rating, I would have treated you the same way. If you let your children go through cabinets and leave doors open, I wouldn't be friendly either. Anyway! We arrived very late and were treated with excellent service. We didn't have a reservation, but the super friendly gentleman at the... More

I always try to get beyond big cities and look on the outskirts for something that's both a lot quieter and more affordable. I stayed at a Best Western in Vega, TX, and it was a good example of a franchise NOT holding up to Best Western standards by ANY means, not even close... When I pulled up to the... More

Saw their ad online prior to my trek to central Nebraska on July 9, 2010. Impressed enought to also stay with them on my return to the Twin Cities. This motel lives up to the standards of 'Best Western' and then some. Well worth the 12 mile round-trip off of I 90. I was travelling alone, and as a senior,... More

Stayed here on the way to the Badlands, left my bike right outside the door, no worries! I live in a small city, and this place is even more quite at night.

Let's see. As other reviewer said, hard to find, in the midst of construction area (not their fault, but didn't help, either). From the outside, looked like a reconditioned seedy hotel. They gave our reservation to another person -- really. They attached our paperwork to someone else's info -- they hadn't bothered to check the names! The checkin man was... More

We stayed here on our way to the badlands. It was a few miles off 90 in a tiny little town, Road contruction in the little town, along with lack of good signage, made it very difficult to find!! Once we found it, the man inside was very kind and helpful. Fast checkin. Rooms small, but nicely decorated. Very clean!... More

The motel was situated in a residential neighborhood with only a few blocks walk to downtown Canistota. The room was very clean and all the comforts we needed. The owners were friendly and accommodating (we wanted to check out at 6am before the office opened). More

We stayed at this Best Western on a family road trip from New York to Montana. It was good and not so good. Reasonably priced and clean - which is very important. But I felt like I was staying at my mother-in-law's house - that is the only way I can describe it. Management did not make us feel welcome... More
