We travel a LOT, and honestly, this is the BEST hotel we have EVER stayed! We stayed here 3 nights. Every staff member, from check in, maintenance, housekeeping, the restaurant, were wonderful! So friendly and definitely customer oriented! They GENUINELY CARED about our stay and went the extra mile to make our stay the best! Here are a few examples: loaning me an umbrella, bringing in a fan at our request, troubleshooting TV remote until they found a solution, free use of washers and soap, custom made delicious pastries MADE JUST FOR US when we were disappointed they were out! WOW! We were told they only hire people who love helping people, and IT SHOWS! May sound strange, but we actually just felt a tangible happiness being there! Rooms were clean, big, comfy. Easy car access. WE WILL BE BACK! THANK YOU!!

This was one of the cutest places that we've ever stayed in. The people were so welcoming and nice, it just added to the charm of the inn. This was a perfect location to visit Custer State Park and Crazy Horse. The room is dated, but very clean. I would stay here and recommend it to everyone. Absolute 10!!!
