There were bugs in the pool, bugs in the room, some weird powder on one of the mattresses. Tried to contact someone about the bugs, never could find a person and when I did he was visiting with his family in the lobby.

Great location for travelers on a tight bidget.

The hotel is conveniently located in Keystone and good for travelers on a budget but needs updates to plumbing and interior.

The room was adjacent to the indoor pool and was very warm as a result. The staff did not monitor the pool hours and there was a pool party one night til 11pm

Close to Rushmore - not much else

If you want a place to stay near Mt. Rushmore, this is fine, but awfully expensive for the convenience. Bizarre room configuration (a jacuzzi tub completely open to the rest of the room, and walls suggesting two rooms were joined), scary upper level parking (don't try it with a low profile vehicle), damaged window screens, insects wandering around, water damaged rooms, sparse staffing. I wouldn't stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The facility was clean and location was convenient to several dining options, shopping and attractions. Appreciated parking area on the 2nd level where our room was located. The included breakfast had nice hot & cold offererings. This is obviously an older property and could use some updated furnishings. Our room was too small for 2 queen beds & it was quite cramped. No way it could accould accomodate more than 2 guests comfortably. The interior lighting was poor and the diverter on the shower/bath was hard to operate, but for a 3 day stay Rm 211 was fine.
