No parking for our Uhaul van. But, convenient car parking and a quick and easy drop box checkin for after hours.

Credit card fee was extra and at $4 a bit high imho. No coffee maker in the room and the bed was a bit stiff. The room was big but no dish info available so who knows what was on the tv or where. The housekeeper walked into my room at 10am without knocking. Checkout is 11. Keys for room and

There’s are coffee makers available upon request. The sign is on the front desk. We apologize you didn’t see it! We will look into making that sign bigger. We appreciate the review and hope to see you again!

Quick stop on our adventure
The staff was really helpful and the hotel was cute. somewhere I think it said free pass to swim but that was not true. No breakfast in the morning but they did offer us some granola bars in place of a breakfast But it was labor day and they were short staffed. We really just needed a place to shower and sleep so we could head to Devils Tower the next morning

I asked for a bottom floor and was told there were none. The people that came in behind me asked if there were vacancies, and rented a room. I watched them unload into a bottom floor.

There are several different options such as suites that are a single bed but higher price. Perhaps that was the difference. We apologize for any inconveniences.

Small town nice
Chose this small town Motel as it was reasonably close to the Devils Tower that I want to see before moving on to South Dakota. This small family motel was quite comfortable and quiet. It fits nicely in this small town which is quite nice. There's a nice diner across the street, since all this place has are snack type food, packaged pastries etc.

Unfortunately when booking through a 3rd party such as hotels, booking, or Expedia we are not able to see any agreements between you and the 3rd party booking site. We get charged the commission from the booking site and have to collect the funds. My apologies for any inconveniences.

No food. No service from staff. Shoulder shrugs. Too many fees. No pool. Beds uncomfortable. Room unsafe. I was hurt on the bed and their door frame. I received a splinter under my fingernail. It had to be removed professionally.

When I first arrived, I thought the place was abandoned. That was not the case. Not the best first impression. The room was good, clean, and quite acceptable. Free breakfast doesn't start until 8am. I was the last party to leave, and that was before 8am. Seems a way for them to cut expenses.

There was a bunch of dried up grapes on the floor next to the bed and what appeared to be granola. The worse part was the door. The weather was -5° and there was no seal around the entry door so freezing air poured into the room making us to run the heat at full throttle. It door poped open while sleeping.
This door was shut all the way and latched. The photo is to show the lack of air seal which froze us out and made us check out a day early.
