This is a basic budget motel. It was clean and comfortable and reasonably priced. We opted to stay here the night before we visited Badlands National Park. It was a few miles east of the park.

A little older property and a bit run down but it was a pleasant stay. Breakfast was just coffee, milk, OJ, and some chocolate/powdered donuts. Pool had no water in it. Staff was very friendly. I would stay again.

We arrived later in the evening, and it took the person behind the counter 3 tries to get us a functional key - she ended up switching what room we were in after the first 2 didn’t work. The room had a funky almost musty smell to it, and the bedspread didn’t smell the best either. The sheets and the bathroom were both clean.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The property was old but the staff kept it clean and sufficient. I had my own air spray so that helped with the odor of old room/cleaning products smell. I was woken by the sound of the tv in the unit above. The old window air conditioner was effectively keeping my room temperature cool and the convenience of right off the highway and across from a restaurant was okay. The kindness of the staff made my stay pleasant.

Motel was acceptable. somewhat dated. Front desk staff was cordial and effective. Internet is very limited. There is very limited dining available in very small town. The one redeeming feature for this motel is its closeness to the badlands. Unfortunately there is no dining opportunity in town, other than service station snacks for late arrivals after around 7pm.
