Great place to stay when visiting the Badlands
Perfect quiet location, close to Wall and the Badlands. The room was clean & updated and the kitchenette was perfect to refreeze cooler ice and keep all of cooler foods cold. We love the room and would definitely stay again if we are back in the area.

It was a perfect little place for what we needed. Stayed one night on the way to our destination and because it worked so well decided to stay again on our way back home. It was in a very small but very quiet and safe felling town. There really isn't anything around so the kitchen came in handy and had everything we needed. No fancy amenities but everything was clean, everything worked, and it was comfortable and quiet. Would recommend!

The room was very cute but needed a table or desk or something to put things on. The kitchenette was great, but since there was no table we had to sit on the bed (or chair) to eat.

Quiet, updated, nice deck in back and seating in front. For a traveler for roughly the same price as the chains in Wall or rapid city, you get a lovely quiet place that’s a bit unique but still with all the necessities including a sweet kitchenette. Much preferable - lovely and quiet and very friendly hosts.

The property is small but does include a kitchenette with microwave, large refrigerator and two burner stove. It is newly renovated and very clean. It is in a remote area so not a lot of dining choices, but you are aware of that. We found this motel by chance and have found a hidden gem.
