Perfect facilities for 2. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. Staff called hours before check in to let us know how to get in and what was around the property for dinner options (Wasta Bar was great!). Also had some snacks for us. Overall, a nice experience.

This motel is exceptional! Extremely clean and quiet, had amazing amenities, and the motel itself is adorable and has such a vintage South Dakota feel. Perfect for people with dogs as well! This was my third summer staying in the area to visit the badlands, and staying at this motel in Wasta was a much more enjoyable experience than staying in Wall. I could not recommend the Redwood Motel more!!
