On our way down to Branson we decided we weren’t going to drive straight through. We left Saturday afternoon and our reservations in Branson didn’t start until Sunday. We wouldn’t have gotten into Branson until 11pm at the earliest, but probably closer to 1am and we’d have to find somewhere to stay. So we got a room at the Super 8 in Rolla, MO.

Our stay was so short that I didn’t get to take pictures myself. We checked in and the staff was friendly. Our room was clean and we were given a fridge. That’s important when you have a child with dairy issues and you bring special milk with for him. The room was spacious for a 2 queen bed room. We could have easily fit another bed in the room.

They have an indoor pool and exercise room on site, not that we had time to use either. They have a complimentary continental breakfast included. The breakfast had 3 types of cereal, donuts, muffins, bagels. belgian waffles, orange and apple juice, and coffee. It also says there is free high speed internet access but I never attempted to sign on. The hotel was dog friendly for sure. We saw at least 3 small dogs while we were staying there.

There are plenty of restaurants nearby a winery, state park, caverns and a wax museum not too far away.
