We checked in after seeing Mt. Rushmore. It was also Sturgis week so I'm so surprised there were open rooms. Check in was fast and they were friendly. Let us know if some good places to eat. Room was dated but comfortable. Room was clean. Walked down to a great pizza place. Not the one next door but down the boardwalk further and upstairs. I would say it was quiet but being that it was Sturgis motorcycles were out in full force. It was quiet in the evening so I can imagine in normal circumstances it would be nice and quiet. It was a nice stay.

No elevators, no breakfast and very old, hard and lumpy mattresses. 2 Nights no sleep. The air conditioner was so loud it competed with the motorcycles in the parking lot except all night long. But it did work, just growling loud. The staff was sweet and nice. Very willing to give you a good stay. Restaurants and shops all around, great location for everything we were there to see.

This is the first time I have left a motel review… being as when you get a cheap motel, you know going in you’re not at a 5 star hotel. However, please do not stay here. I just wanted a hot shower and reasonably comfortable bed when coming back from a full day of exploring, hiking, driving, etc. 1. The ice machine did not work. No way to have cold drinks at night or in the morning. 2. Shower head was literally at the level of my nose. I’m 5’8”. Tall, but not overly. You either have to bend way over at the waist or try to bend backward which is impossible given how low the shower head is. 3. The first night, not enough hot water for 2 showers. The 2nd, my daughter didn’t even attempt a shower. She’s 5’10” and knew there wasn’t going to be enough hot water nor could she fit under the shower head anyway. 4. The beds. Holy cow, literally like sleeping on a wooden slab. I have a firm mattress at home so I’m used to sleeping on a harder bed. But this was insanely painful. My daughter is only 25 and even she has continued to have aches and pains 5 days after sleeping on the bed. We’ve spent the last 13 years sleeping in various hotels, motels, airbnbs while doing travel ball for our daughters. This was by far the worst place we’ve ever stayed. As far as staying in Keystone, we picked it for a central location. But the tiny strip of town is dead by 9:30ish and it’s honestly unnerving, bordering on creepy. Not the best place to stay for 2 females.
