“Best Western Kelly Inn in Yankton seems geared towards families, particularly with its indoor pool and waterslide. I noticed the on-site dining and bar, Minervas Grill, which I think would be a plus after a day at the nearby Lewis and Clark Recreation Area. For travelers with larger vehicles, the ample parking is worth highlighting.”
