Some rough edges to work on, overall a good stay
The rooms were generally clean. We did find leftovers in one of the mini fridges in one room. The window sills had bugs and dust, so those aren't being cleaned regularly. The curtains in one room were also stained. The hallway was also very hot compared to the rooms. One of our rooms had two queen beds. There were only two towels (and one washcloth) in the bathroom. When my husband went to ask about getting more towels the desk clerk said, "you want them now?" Um, yes! Two towels in a room that should sleep four people is not enough. The next day after housekeeping was there we had three towels and still only one washcloth. Overall we did have a good experience. These were really minor inconveniences in the grand scheme of things. Bonus? The website does not mention breakfast, but we were surprised to find a light, continental breakfast.

We stopped in early to make our reservation. We were going to be a late arrival. They have it posted that the lobby is open until 11:00pm. We knew it would be closer to midnight. They waited for us. She had the key in her hand when we came through the front door. Our only problem was the heater. It was very warm when we checked in. We turned it down to 68. It did not cool off. We completely shut it off. The staff was great.

Decent place and a good price.
An older property, there were places where things were worn. But it was very clean. Smelled fresh without chemicals. Good value. Would stay there again.

Run down - lots of chipping paint, the towel racks were rusting. Breakfast options were lacking - no juice, just water or coffee. I don't know that I'd stay here again.

My room was dark and dindgy. Lights were burned out. Breakfast was lacking, Common area was messed up. Every thing was outdated, like the bead spreads looked 20 years old. Needs a total renovation.

I stayed here while on a pheasant hunt. I was there to sleep and get up to hunt, so it served its purpose and that’s all I can ask for. I will be staying here again next year.

Clean but pretty worn and bedding is thin. Bath towels are small and thin. Heat was either on or off. Set to auto it never shut off and room got way too hot despite set at 70. Breakfast was ok but no juice at all - machine marked as broken. Pop machine broken too. Could be a great place but there are a lot of things that need to be fixed. Fantastic location and staff were great.

Meanwhile back at the Pizza Ranch Hotel…
I’ve stayed in plenty of budget hotels, but this was pretty bad to be honest. There were plenty of visible stains on the bedding: blood, mystery stains. The mattresses were very thin as were the pillows. When we asked for more pillows and towels, as there were only two on each bed and two (paper thin, dirty) towels total, we were given a death glare and quizzed on which room we were in and how many guests there were. Breakfast consisted of individually wrapped snack cakes, bread, and coffee. Given that this hotel is attached to a Pizza Ranch (that’s correct) I wouldn’t have been surprised if there was day old pizza slices for breakfast. Hard pass, I’ll pay a bit more and stay elsewhere in Vermillion. This is not worth the meager savings.

You need to have more wash cloths at least two in the bathroom. More electrical outlets needed in rooms to charge devices.
