10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful hotel! We stayed here for 1 night while traveling to the Badlands. Proximity to the national park is incredible, the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, and I’d highly recommend staying here! Very budget friendly and you definitely get a great deal :)

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasant place to stay.

Spacious room, clean, quiet. Good view of the badlands from the property.
Danny, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Charming old style motel. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Older building, but clean and maintained. Perfect location for visiting Badlands National Park, less than 5 minute from entrance.
Chris, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location to Badlands NP; very pet friendly.
DONNA, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Yes, this place is on the older side but it’s exactly what you might expect from a hotel/campground. It’s quiet, clean and literally just outside of the park entrance. I would definitely stay here again. (Pool is not in service and we could not get tv to work, but we were here for Badlands anyway.)
Michael, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Great location…but needs some work.

The location was excellent! The people were lovely. However, the room needed cleaning up.
meryl, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I would recommend staying here to anyone. The checkin was easy, people were friendly. The little store and office are a bit run down and dated but room was nice sized and very clean. It appeared to have been recently remodeled and the bathroom was spacious for the size of room. I was disappointed the pool was not in working order, Overall I highly recommend!!!!
Jolyne, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Efficient and close to park

Simple room was old, but main room had new floors and beds were comfortable. Bathroom small and worn, but functional. Overall great for the money and really close to the national park
Michael, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Location is great and desk staff are friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom is worn and dated. The regular beds were comfortable but the pull out soda bed needs to be replaced as I could feel the support wires through the mattress. Good supply of toiletries and appreciated the regular and decaf coffee oprions.
Anita, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Badlands

It was a very basic day. They advertise for the Poole, which was not working and when I asked her about it, they said that amenities were not guaranteed. The Front Desk seem not to know what they were doing when I ask questions. You would only stay here if you needed to be near the park
William, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do yourself a favor, drive to Wall instead

My room had a fly infestation (they know it is a problem, since they supply a fly swatter). After killing about 40 flies, I thought ok, it’s gross in here but I am exhausted. Opened up the bed, took one look at the filthy sheets and left immediately.
Marjorie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location and great value for the price. Clean room and very comfortable bed. Very close to the entrance of the Badlands made it convenient to return for the evening programs. Word of advice: dining choices are very scarce. We had an ok burger at the Wagon Wheel Bar and Grill for dinner. No decent options for breakfast although the motel did offer some food. Next time I would bring some yogurt or breakfast food and stick it in the room fridge.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Decent if you are only using room to sleep

We booked the room because we liked how close it was to the national park. The room seemed to be kinda run down. I know they are in the process of updating their rooms so we may have gotten one that was not updated. The beds were extremely uncomfortable and the water pressure in the bathroom was poor. The people running the hotel were extremely friendly and helpful. The town is extremely small so plan accordingly. The only restaurants near by are bars.
Mike, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

So close to park, room comfortable and basic but perfect to stay at
kevin, 1-night trip

Enjoyed rooms, food and fantastic view!
Sue, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good place to stay on a budget.
Jerrold, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was clean and comfortable, although the bathroom seemed like it hadn't been updated in quite some time. The carpet in our room was also a little dingy. Perhaps replacing with laminate is the plan as I saw other rooms with that. We were content staying here and understand the housing units are older which makes it harder to maintain. Overall, we were thankful for a soft, clean place to land.
