Convenient location
When we arrived, we couldn't get the lock code to work. We quickly got a response and got a code to get us into the property. The back yard was nice. We don't have a dog anymore, but the level area for a dog was will built with no gaps that a dog could squeeze through. It was so easy to get to most things we wanted or needed. The beds were all very nice. There were plenty of extra linens and bedding if needed. We would definitely recommend staying here.

We came for a surgery for my young son. There was plenty of room for my family and it was very close to the tourist activities we wanted to do. There is a railroad crossing three houses down which is loud but my sons thought it was so cool to see a train up close.

As advertised or better
At a minimum, the property was as promised. Everything was clean and orderly. Kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with all the extras one would probably need. Lots of extra blankets too. Location as far as proximity to things is great. Close to downtown and anything towards the center of Sioux Falls. Location as in the immediate neighborhood is average. A few blocks to the north is a more questionable area of town, but we never felt unsafe.

Super!
My sisters and I enjoyed our stay here very much. The house really has most anything you could need, including spare toiletries! The pillows were luxurious, beds comfy, and the location convenient. The pup enjoyed the use of the backyard, too! Had a little trouble getting the football game to come in on the antenna in the living room, so we piled into one of the bedrooms with better reception which was fun in its own way. Thanks for being accommodating with our reschedule and appreciate all the quick communication!
