    This is a great little donation only museum. We have been twice now. The WWI display is impressive and interesting - life size trenches and impressive displays of clothing and equipment. My boys love the bison and feeling all the objects made from bison bones/teeth/hide, etc. The teepees and depictions of Sioux life are amazing. The upstairs courthouse is gorgeous. They are doing some renovations upstairs as well and we look forward to those on future visits. It's a great way to spend a rainy or cold day. Takes about 1-2 hours to go through (if you read a lot). Great downtown activity (low cost).

    They have 3 stories of history and exhibits. The staff were very pleasant and informative. They're open daily AND it's free admission.

    Very nice small, community museum. Very welcoming staff. As noted by other reviewers the building is the main attraction.

    Good history of Sioux Falls and some interesting displays. Interactive displays and things for kids to do.

    The museum gives a wonderful glimpse into the early history of Sioux Falls and how different life once was here.

    This hotel looks nice online, but it is even better in person. I feel it would had been regrettable…read morepicking any other hotel. We were coming in for a wedding and encouraged other guests to book here too. It is easy to get to and from the airport. We took an uber (short drive) but the hotel does have a shuttle if you arrange it. We learned that lyft has more drivers than uber in this area if that is helpful to anyone. Things we loved: - the add on during booking was worth it (strawberries and champagne) - the kitchenette area is not tiny - I love the non slip floor in the bathroom and shower. The look of it and the functionality. please link me, I need this floor at home! - mattress comfy - very clean rooms, robes presented on beds very nice touch. - dimming lights Staff are nice and they have a little coffee breakfast nook with goodies by front desk as well. This location is very walkable to go get a burger or breakfast sandwich down the street too. Super bonus is the treasury restaurant inside the hotel through the safe door. We are suckers for history and a swanky atmosphere. I wouldn't want to park here - it is a tight lot. Even the Ubers and Lyfts have trouble getting in and out because it is narrow. I mean people do, I just personally would not. Thanks for the wonderful stay. If we have to come back to Sioux Falls we won't be staying anywhere else but here.

    Beautiful hotel, clean and glamorous. The staff was awesome, shout out to Steve and Jeff, super…read morenice guys running valet and the shuttle. We didnt know they had a shuttle service which made things so much more convenient. My hubs coordinated with the hotel and they had our room decorated with rose petals and NA champagne, chocolate covered strawberries and a small cake in the fridge waiting for us. It was so cute! The only gripping we had was not having a closet to store our things for the weekend but other than that the room was great and our bed was extremely comfortable, like a nice toasty cloud.
