Sicuramente consigliato, vicino a tutto.
Pros:

Ottima posizione e parcheggio enorme. Comodo come punto di partenza sia che si vada alle Badlands, sia verso il Monte Rushmore. Stanze dotate di ogni comfort e davvero grandi. Cucinotto, frigo, ecc. Colazione abbondante.

Cons:

Non mi è piaciuto il fatto che la zona del bagno dove c'è specchio e lavandino non avesse una porta, quindi la luce andava direttamente verso il letto. E se io mi alzo prima al mattino per sistemarmi ma voglio che la mia compagna possa dormire senza una luce sparata in faccia, come posso fare? Non riesco perché non c'è nessuna porta o tenda. Il climatizzatore è a terra, il che significa che l'aria ci veniva sparata direttamente verso il letto, costringendoci a spengerla prima di dormire.

A lovely property with a few issues easily remedied
Pros:

Breakfast was fine, maybe better than run of the mill. The room was extremely spacious and nicely appointed. The nicest of many we've had this week. The TV was great, as was the heating-air system. The room was also very quiet.

Cons:

The gentleman who checked us in did not greet us or even establish eye contact. He was mildly annoyed with an older man who had left a luggage cart too close to the door; he was having trouble moving it. We asked the receptionist for a recommendable restaurant nearby and he just said to go to the mall, pointing down the street. It could have been better! A little more training and the fostering of more graceful manners in front-end staff would surely be a big plus and make your property all the more memorable. The bed was too soft and several of the pillows had a musty-body smell and could not be used. These should be washed or replaced. We also noticed a lot of brown grime around all the buttons on both lamp stands. We cleaned them with alcohol wipes. Those are high contact items, so should get more attention. The peephole cover on the door was not working as expected and remained open at all times.

Cons:

The price was high and probably related to the recent Sturgis Rally. But, compared to other hotels in the area was better priced. The location was good as to close to major roads but not a lot of local stores and restaurants.

Pros:

Un excellent rapport qualité prix pour des studios qui sont vastes à plus de 60 m² et à environ 2 miles, du centre-ville, ce qui est une excellente option, notamment pour une famille. Ce qui n'est pas le cas. Du virginian lodge. situé à jackson hole, extrêmement chère, pour un confort inférieur, puisque nous avons réglé environ 500€ par jour la chambre. De plus, pas de petit déjeuner. Et un restaurant annexe toujours bondé. Donc impossible de déjeuner le matin, c'est regrettable. Bien que le personnel soit très gentil et très serviable.

Cons:

Rien pour cet hôtel
