Very clean and quiet. We also liked our visit from your orange cat. He walked in our room just like he lived there. It was nice because we had to leave our cat at home. He was so friendly be careful no one picks him up!👍😄

Beth

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Black mold on bathroom wall next to mirror. Floor had multiple soft spots. Comforters were either dirty or stained. The room smelled moldy. The pool was closed. Part of the sidewall caved in. It still had water in it and it was gross stinky water. The service was okay but the hotel is in desperate need of repair/renovations.

This is a minimally maintained property in just functional condition. The most disappointing part is that we left a phone charger in the room, but they supposedly didn't find it while cleaning.

A little dated but clean and comfortable. Should note the restaurant is only for breakfast and is closed on Sunday and Monday. No ice machine but they offered a free 3 lb bag of ice.

The staff was friendly and welcoming. Room was cool and clean. Bathroom needs updating, toilet was low and small. Breakfast was good for what was offered. Coffe should be free, especially with breakfast. Should offer something to drink with breakfast. Was a convenient location for staying in Badlands and other nearby sights.

Combo motel and campground, that is super convenient just outside the southern gate of Badlands National Park. Was a 2-minute drive into park for "campfire" program. The rooms were clean and nice. There is a "camp store" in the office for essentials. Several food-serving bars nearby in Interior, SD.

Property is older, but kept up pretty well. It was over 100 degrees outside when we checked in & the a/c kept up very well. A couple places needed some cleaning (fan cover on ceiling & baseboards in bathroom).
