A little outdated, the bedding and TV. Very minimal to-go breakfast. They have cabins in the back that look nice from the outside but the hotel room was right on the main road, with trucks and motorcycles going by early mornings.

Gateway to the Black Hills.

Breakfast was adequate and fresh. Toilet was slow at draining and threatened overflow several times but use of plunger finally got it flowing properly. Bath sinks and mirror area very spacious.

The property was exactly as expected from pictures online! Super cute and roomy. Almost all staff was super friendly and personable (only one staff member was a little less enthused), but overall, just awesome people! Everything was clean and up-kept. Laundry area was available on site too, which was very nice! If you have kids that don’t swing great, bring floaties for the pool. The entire pool depth was 4.5 feet, no shallow end. Lots of options within walking distance for shopping and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again!!!
