Econo Lodge North 5100 North Cliff Avenue, Sioux Falls, SD 57104

"I've stayed in several motels and hotels, and had sub-par customer service. But here the owner and staff was excellent. Very helpful and very cheerful. I wanted to find a place to stay that was well within budget, and I found it. The econo lodge has definitely got a long term customer with me"

"DO NOT STAY HERE !!!! Absolutely one of the worst places I've ever stayed. Drove in at 5 pm exhausted and needed to rest for a long drive and was put directly below a loud family with kids that ran and jumped for hours. I called and went to front desk 5 different times to be told there no other rooms and they would speak to them. The 6th time I complained they moved me to another room. They don't care if your tired and spent $152 on a room and you can't even sleep. There was long black hair in the bathtub and on my towels and used medical supplies floating in the hot tub. There are definitely better hotels for the price."

"You get what you pay for is an understatement. The “Breakfast” is just cereal and toast. The pool and hot tub are not on during the winter. My room was stated to be non smoking, but had burn holes in the covers and reeked strongly of weed. If you can spare a few extra bucks I’d highly recommend going elsewhere!"

"For the price, the room was a good size with appropriate amenities. Pool and hot tub appeared fairly well maintained. No issues with cleanliness at all, entire room was visibly very clean and even the in-room coffee maker was clean (rare at a lot of places!). Staff I interacted with were nice and helpful. Continental breakfast isn't much but is good enough; there is a waffle iron, a couple cereal options, bagels, and coffee. Soundproofing could use some improvement; it wasn't bad, but someone's young child was running down the hall screaming during the day once and we could hear them pretty clearly. In summary, I've been places that cost twice as much that were half as nice!"

"I just read all of these negative reviews and had to raise my eyebrow. Sure, this isn’t a fancy hotel but the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was clean, bed was fine, and the shower had no problems. The girls (I had three 18 year old toddlers) enjoyed horsing around in the pool and having it to themselves. The man even allowed them to stay a little bit past closing time."
