Stayed in a kitchen suite with my family and it was perfect! Our particular suite had two separate bedrooms, allowing for privacy, and a kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, microwave, toaster, and coffee pot. We were able to do some light cooking while there to save money on eating out. Staff at the front desk was very friendly and knowledgeable about places to hike/sightsee. Suite was very clean! The inn is also located close to the main shopping area/restaurants and not far from some of the main attractions (International Wolf Center and Dorothy Molter Museum). I will definitely stay here again next time I’m in the area.
