Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Staff were nice, hotel and rooms are clean and comfortable but dated. Perfect location for Keystone attractions. No breakfast options, which would have been appreciated. Parking however a nightmare. People parking in front of our room, my 84 year old mother with a walker would have to walk a ways to our room, there are not enough parking. Store and laundry are close by, convenient. There is indeed a view of Mount Rushmore from the parking lot and upper floors

The hotel room was very small, the beds were small, and the mattresses were in poor condition. The air conditioning was too noisy. The light in the bathroom didn't work. We also found cockroaches, and the whole room stinks. I'll never return to that hotel. Good luck to whoever rented it.
