Prairie Inn & Suites

All I can say is UGH.
We were given rooms on the 2^nd floor. When we arrived with all of our suit cases we drug them around the whole hotel looking for the elevator. When I asked the front desk manager where they were, she said, «oh we don’t have one.» We had to carry all our bags up the stairs. I asked what people did if they were physically unable to take the stair and she said, «We don’t have to have an elevator!» We asked if we could get a room one the first floor bc my grandma would be staying with us and cannot take the stairs. She said, «sorry, all rooms are booked for the weekend». However, we seemed to be the first to arrive for the busy weekend considering we were literally the ONLY car in the parking lot! She didn’t even try to switch things around or accommodate us. My mother had to go back down to the lobby and demand that she get a room on the first floor to accommodate my elderly grandmother. Which they finally did.
When I got settled in my room I noticed I had no soap, no shampoo, no lotion, no hair dryer. All the typical things that you usually take for granted in a hotel. I had to go down to the front desk to ask for it. Also, they did not provide conditioner. :/​
I also was not given a Do Not Disturb sign. I went back downstairs to ask for one and the same rude manager said, «We don’t have anymore, we are all out.» I asked, «how will the cleaning crew know not to go in my room?» and she just simply crossed my room number off of a list and said, «there.» This manager was so rude! I found the cleaning crew myself and asked if I could have a sign from one of the unoccupied rooms, which the gladly gave me one.
The hotel would have been more acceptable if the manager had been nicer! She was so rude to me and my family. I would never stay here again.

Parking lot is awfully small. Rooms don’t come with the regular room service as others do. I believe they charge you extra for the room service. It looks nice but it’s ok. Maybe I should wait until we check out to actually post a review. Fear not fellow Unilocalers the shenanigans shall be brought to light. We the people demand the truth! They are cheap about standard things like little shampoo bottles & soap to wash my hands.

My wife and I came back to Holmen to see my Mom who is in assisted living and wanted to stay somewhere quiet. Prairie Inn is a wonderful hidden treasure! The rate is awesome! Very clean rooms, with all the trimmings of your chain hotels but with a personal touch. Just a very pleasant stay. If your going to stay in Onalaska or Holmen, do yourself a favor and give them a try, you will not be disappointed.

I’m not sure if it is the La Crosse area, but it seems like every hotel is spaced out about 7 miles out from each other (or so it seems when I went to a wedding in La Crosse).
This hotel is out behind a gas station, on a bend of road off the highway, it is easy to get to once you know where to go, but also an odd placement in my opinion, with a small parking lot.
Through a series of unfortunate events we got the handicapped room (125) which is an oddity in itself, as it has the most peculiar floor plan to it. It being a suite, it contains a hot tub in the bedroom, and then an odd kitchenette.
The hotel was very skimpy on things like soap (only 1 given during our whole 3 day stay) and that goes same for shampoo and lotion (didn’t use).
A trail of ants was discovered adventuring around the hot tub and many dead bugs littered the window sills.
*Note: there were no bed bugs (that we knew of) so at least that was good.
The continental breakfast was alright, with a selection of coffee (reg /​decaf), cereal, bread, waffle (toastable) and english muffin. There was also a small selection of fruits (apples & bananas).
