The employees were great The bedsheets were clean. When we arrived at the motel, we noted that the toilet had not been properly cleaned, so I bought wipes and wiped it down. The sink was clogged, so I bought Drano. We did tell staff about it, but never sure if they checked. There was also black mold in the bathtub, in the area of a ledge that had not been cleaned.

Friendly staff. Parking available. Room was clean with the exception of the night stand that had a weird white lotion/grease left over, luckily I had sanitizer wipes and I cleaned that up. There was also one pillow stain with some brown stains. Planty of food options around the hotel. Super close to Custer.

Stayed in the hotel for a day while visiting Mt Rushmore and Custer State Park. I just wish every hotel had google tv like this one. The front desk staff were very helpful and courteous. Breakfast was good and many options. Only complain was that there were a couple of bugs in the room maybe because it is on the ground floor. Room was otherwise clean and well kept.
