The hotel and room were perfect for what we booked it for. It was centrally located in the town of Keystone, close to Mount Rushmore and other things we planned to do. The room had a few MINOR things wrong like I'm pretty sure a light bulb was burned out and there was some wall damage prior to our arrival but overall VERY NICE place to stay.
