Must Stay Again

Thoroughly great hotel. Best hotel breakfast I've ever had. My favorite thing to do in the morning was to head downstairs, grab a cup of coffee and sit on the rocking chair on the porch. I tended to be up before the other quests so I had a nice quiet hour the porch enjoying my coffee. The hotel staff is very friendly and the room was great. It was only 20 minutes or so to Mount Rushmore. Also a great launching spot for visiting Needles Highway, Custer State Park or even Badlands National Park. 2 hours to Devil's Tower which was an enjoyable drive. All around no regrets staying here and would absolutely do it again.

Good stay.

The place was very clean. The staff were nice. Breakfast was the normal continental stuff which was fine. It was located next to all the stores. The only complaint I have was the water when running bath water was brown. I guess had excess minerals. No sure.
