This hotel is nothing to look at from the outside, but the room was spacious and included an electric fireplace. The lobby/eating area was large and could accommodate many people. The hot breakfast buffet rotated its selections and posted a weekly menu selections. The location was convenient to all attractions in the Black Hills.
