Beautiful Memory

The hotel is very charming. We enjoyed the attention to detail in the furnishings and decor. Everything was comfortable and fresh. A hidden gem for sure. The staff was extraordinary from check in to check out. We also had a healthy breakfast at the restaurant with beautiful views. Wonderful!

Charming rooms and grounds

This is our second time staying here as we really enjoy the charm of the rooms and grounds. There is an indoor and outdoor pool as well as a basketball and pickleball court area. The fitness trail is perfect to walk our dog and get a little exercise as well. The rooms while a little older, are so charming and the bedding is sooooo soft. We will stay here again next time we are in the area.

Clean with a convenient location

Clean but dated hotel. Receptionist was very sweet and engaging. We were just there for 1 night and this property was good enough. Very conveniently located to Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse and Custer State Park.

Okay, but not great

The property looks amazing in the photos and the exterior was very nice and the flowers were beautiful. The room appeared nice when we entered, but the overwhelming smell of fabreeze room fresher was almost more than we could deal with. After airing out the room a bit, we settled in. Went to take a shower and noticed brown spots on the floor near the sink and bathroom; when we used a wipe to clean them up, it smelled and looked like dog crap. Probably why the room had been so fabreezed. Very disappointed to discover the crap and made us wonder about the rest of the cleanliness of the room. It is a nice location and is quaint. Thin walls and floors so you hear most everyone else in the building. The only staff member that we encounted was friendly, but we were there on the last day the motel was open for the season.
