We stayed at the HI Express in Brandon, SD in June on one of our many trips to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. The hotel was very clean, comfortable and in good repair! The staff was friendly & helpful. Of course their breakfast is always a nice start to the day, it's convenient & quick. We only stayed one night, so we didn't spend anytime in the area, just passing through. We would definitely stay there again on future trips to Mayo.
