Great location to access badlands
Staff were excellent! Room was very clean. The only thing I would say was the lighting was a little dim and it would have been nice to USB ports

A great experience
Staff was so friendly. Coffee and popcorn was available in the lobby. The pool and hot tub were clean. The room was clean. The bathroom in the room with 2 queen beds and sofa was very small but adequate. One of my family members left earbuds in the room and I was contacted. The earbuds were shipped to me within hours. Complementary breakfast is available however we left before it was out at 6:30.

Would recommend
Just a brief one night stay but met our needs. The building is a little dated but some upgrades have been made and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pool area was clean and the towels well stocked. The continental breakfast was also great.

Nice hotel. Clean, comfy and quiet. Breakfast area was tight quarters. Great staff. The young man working the breakfast area deserves a huge raise.

The room was so clean even the fan vent in the bathroom was clean and dust-free! I liked the welcome letter that explained a little bit about this family-run hotel. The breakfast was excellent-- lots of good variety. The pool was clean and well-stocked with towels.
