Stayed here for a quick night on our way home from vacation. Front desk staff was friendly and thoughtful. She placed us near stairs and away from other guests without me requesting it. Which was nice since I had my children with me and had a lot to carry. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was good too.

Not bad

I liked the property and the service, it had a laundry, ice machine, easy parking. Small town so everything is walkable. Room was clean but it just had this smell that was old, mildewy. Not sure if it came from the AC Unit, building, etc. overall, it was ok. That’s my only gripe.

3 night stay while checking out the Black Hills

I didn’t like how dirty the bathroom floor seemed. I made my kids wear shoes for the 3 days we stayed (not just socks) throughout the room. It was an awesome location. The breakfast was ok. Most of the patrons were super friendly so that was pretty great!

The hotel looked nice but things were run down in our room. The toilet leaked a lot and the bathroom wasn’t very clean. We did like the 2 room option but our bed had a lot of someone else’s hair in it. The breakfast was disappointing and they didn’t have coffee.The rating was high so I booked this hotel, but sadly we were disappointed. The staff was friendly though.
