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 Every thing was outdated, like the bead spreads looked 20 years old.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.
