Pros:

The rooms were great!

Cons:

We didn't realize how dirty the pool was until the kids had been in it for a while. It was so murky you couldn't see the kids after they submerged more than 2 ft. They completely disappeared from view. The kids have dark hair and bright orange Swim suits. We were shocked that you couldn't see them having their toys from the bottom of the pool. Yuck!

Just a place to rest your head. Nothing special and probably wouldn’t stay there again.
Pros:

This was just ok. It was clean, the staff was pleasant. But it certainly isn’t within walking distance to Mt Rushmore. It was nothing special
