This motel is exceptional! Extremely clean and quiet, had amazing amenities, and the motel itself is adorable and has such a vintage South Dakota feel. Perfect for people with dogs as well! This was my third summer staying in the area to visit the badlands, and staying at this motel in Wasta was a much more enjoyable experience than staying in Wall. I could not recommend the Redwood Motel more!!

very small rooms for the price plus I had to dump my first cup of coffee out because there were ants in it from the ants in the room. Other than that everything worked well, the bed was comfortable, and I liked how I could use my Prime TV from home by just signing in.

We were not able to check in when we arrived at 9:45 PM. No one answered the door bell after multiple attempts and no one picked up the phone at the number indicated on the door. We tried for 15 minutes to reach someone and finally gave up and found other lodging.

Owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. While the property is older, it is well kept. There were a microwave and refrigerator in the room which weren’t listed in the amenities (should add these to the list).

Loved my stay here! The staff greeted me when I pulled up and were really friendly, and I had been in communication with the owner earlier in the day as she wanted to make sure I had all the info I needed. Room was clean and comfortable. There was some noise from the highway that did bother my dog a little bit, but that's the only negative I came across. It is an older property, but you can tell the owners care about your experience and making improvements. They were putting in new windows when I was there. Would stay again when in the area.

Paid a "Kings Ransom" for a "Paupers" room! contacted the husband/wife owners [via. text; as the pamphlet in the room suggested] looking for some assistance for the properties short-falls... NOTHING! Only choice was to drive quite a distance back to the nearest real town to acquire the basic necessities that should have been available on-site.
