The whole place needed repairs, it looked as old as it was. It was inexpensive. It is in a great location though and there is a great little restaurant that we had breakfast at very near. Walkable to the center of town.
Loved this quaint little motel and the owner was personally involved from check in to showing you your room and to his awesome breakfast enjoyed my stay so much
Room was clean. Buildings are older so they don’t look updated and lack some recent building code improvements, but the value is good for our intended use, which was basically just for a bed at night.
Staff was always available to help and friendly, they made our stay very good. Highly recommend to stay here. Great location to the train station also.

Friendly staff. Facility needs updates.
Clean. Unfortunately there was a strong smell that made it difficult to sleep. We tried to open the windows to bring in fresh air but were not able too. Breakfast was good.
Cute place. Very comfortable bed. Nice, clean. Not huge but everything we needed at a reasonable price. Easy access. Parking in front of our cabin/room. Hot breakfast. Close to restaurants in cute town of Keystone which is close to Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse and Custer State Park.
The owner was friendly and even let us see the room before we booked. We had a bad experience at another hotel and explained it to him. Rooms were clean my husband said the breakfast was pretty good. We would stay here again!
We found this place quite good for our needs. It was a decent budget hotel with the added benefit of a basic breakfast available, which is rare these days in budget accommodation. The staff were very helpful, and the location is just within walking distance of town, though better off driving. We would be happy to stay here again.
The host was amazing! He was super friendly and helpful and even ordered special breakfast items for our kids and the breakfast they offered was very good and great selection. The second we sat around the firepit, the host would come out and start the fire for us. We would definitely stay here again!
The attendant was as super helpful, kind, and a very hard worker! He does it all - checking in, prepares all breakfast food, cleans the rooms, maintains the property…. All by himself! He deserves a a huge raise!! Property was quiet, convenient, affordable.

The motel was nice, located away from the downtown traffic and people so made for a quiet evening. Rooms were ok, clean, and beds were comfortable. We only had breakfast the one morning, the section wasn’t the best. If you’re not expecting fancy, it’s a good place to stay. There is no pool as advertised though.
Rustic charm. Comfortable king bed, a bathroom that actually had room for everything! Parking in town limited, so we were 10 minutes' walk away from boardwalk with shops, restaurants and venues such as 1880 train, helicopter tours, etc. Large room with table and chairs, dresser for clothes, patio facing wooded hill. Rick, great, friendly manager/owner. Freshly painted outside and in. Gravel drive. Adequate breakfast, microwave, fridge, hair dryer, etc. And more reasonably priced. Stayed 4 nights, which was centrally located to all main attractions such as Mt Rushmore, Custer Park, Crazy Horse, Needles, Sylvan Lake, etc.

Older property that needs updates. Room was spacious, but bath was very outdated. Shower head barely at my shoulders. Staff at check in was very friendly, quick and easy. Didn’t check out the breakfast.
