This hotel is conveniently located right next to the highway in the Black Hills area, making it easy to access with a few restaurants nearby. The rooms feature very comfortable king beds on the main level, ideal for a restful stay. The service was excellent with pleasant housekeeping and the added convenience of shops and laundry facilities, even offering a welcome drink. While the dining experience included seasonal vegetables, it didn't come off as expected. Overall, this hotel provides a good value for money stay with its great location and comfortable rooms.

The hotel offers a convenient stay right off the freeway, close to restaurants, and a short drive from downtown. The morning ease of reaching the airport adds to its appeal. The rooms boast a king bed and an exceptionally comfortable mattress, ensuring a restful night's sleep. However, the lack of extra amenities might affect the overall value.

The hotel is centrally located in the Black Hills, right off the freeway, with easy access to nearby restaurants. The rooms on the main level with king-sized beds offer a very comfortable stay. However, the dining experience, while including French pastries, may lack variety. The service is notable for its welcome drink and efficient housekeeping services.
