Quaint community. Kitchenette with freezer is great. The local bar and grill is laid back, the owners sweet and personable. Relaxing. Room is nice but walls do transfer noise from adjacent rooms. Beds are very comfortable. Will recommend.

This was a quiet little place. Close to the badlands. It was as advertised. Everything was clean and neat. Easy to get into and out of. Not much of a town but that's good for us. I do think the train operator was having fun with the tourist, alot of train horn for such a little place.

I highly recommend this cute little motel in a city of “82” people. Recently, renovated, clean, comfy, off the beaten path, with a classic ol’ time bar in town. (Fried bread tacos and pizza). Love surprises like this one! Check it out!

Nice quiet area. Easy to get to. Shower is extremely small and one bed isn't as comfy as the other. I would stay here again very good for price.

Disliked: Staff & service
The cabin was clean and I could tell it had been recently updated. It was nothing fancy but nice. The staff was not friendly. She was very upset that I came to the door. I was supposed to have seen my text. There is not great service in the national parks so I did not know I had a text. This is not a fault of the property but the area around it is run down and deserted.
