Great place to stay

We stayed at the Holiday Inn and Express in Watertown SD while attending a two day car show. From check in to check out our experience was excellent. The staff was incredibly friendly, the room was spacious and very clean. The bed and bedding was very comfortable! The complimentary breakfast was delicious and we'll staffed with incredibly friendly gals. Location was very convenient too.

Gabby checked us & and was efficient & friendly. She even looked up when Godfathers Pizza closed. The lady that cooked & served meals was outstanding. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious! Housekeeping staff always greeted with a smile. We were in room 402. It was nice & clean & quiet. We will recommend this property to others.
