We arrived very late and weren't able to get extra pillows. The room was clean but aged. Breakfast was very minimal. The manager did not bother to prepare the waffle batter which bummed me out after reading reviews about the waffles! If you plan to stay here, bring cash as the cafe we stopped at to get coffee on the... More

We did not have a great experience in Hot Springs in mid-October. Granted, it wasn't tourist season, but we arrived around 7:00pm on a Saturday and had a very hard time finding a restaurant that was open. The town was practically deserted, and many places seemed to have gone out of business. We were intending to go to the Mammoth... More

The hotel is right in the middle of Hot Springs historic area (which is rustic and old but not all that much to get excited about). The hotel itself is older and if you are on the first floor (recommended), you can back right up to your room and unload in just a minute without a lot of effort. The... More

We spent the entire week not worrying about anything; thanks to the staff and especially the management of this very clean and updated motel. The rates were the best available in H/S, the room was very nice, and comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was great! Parking was a breeze, and the manager was the nicest person. The hospitality industry is represented... More

A great find in South Dakota. Very affordable, extremely clean, large rooms and an owner/manager who actually cares about the guests. They offer a comp breakfast that is really a breakfast! Quiet as well. We'd go back and recommend it to our family and clients. More

While the rooms are older (but reasonably updated) and "motel-ish", the inn sits on the edge on the "quiet" side of the river and the proprietor could not be nicer. For the price (AAA $83) it was a bargain versus other properties in the area. We had a nice quiet stay and would definitely return here again. More

As a group of five arriving 'on spec' during Sturgis Bike Week we were pleased to find vacancies at this motel. We took one cabin - capable of sleeping six, and a double room, with two queen size beds. The cabin was clean, and boasted a microwave and fridge. The master bedroom had an en suite shower room, and a... More

We stayed in cabin 103 and loved it. There is room for 6 to sleep, my kids loved the bunk beds, although I don't think adults would like them, they're short and the mattress is thin, but my kids said it was the best sleep ever! i thought the room was very room and we were very pleased! They have... More

The main attraction of this place was location - on the river, right downtown (such as there is in Hot Springs). But otherwise, don't expect much. The rooms are clean, but overall the place is rundown. "Breakfast" is included, but hope you're not hungry (or picky). With the benefit of hindsight, better to stay on the outskirts near the Mammoth... More
