"This was a Great location for the monuments and Custer State Park. The lodge was very clean and accommodating, and friendly staff. I definitely recommend it and would stay here again."

Black Hills Motel at Quails Crossing

8/10 Good

"My main problem was with the hotels. Com website not describing the rooms correctly. What is a room vs a bedroom? We arrived to find we had gotten a room that was like a motel and not a bedroom that was separate from the kitchenette, etc. we were very thankful that the owner worked with us and helped us get a cabin instead where we did have a separate bedroom vs 1 large room only. The website needs to be specific about the difference and what each room really is. We were thankful that he worked with us and the entire place was not filled up. We had an enjoyable stay thanks to the work the owner did for us."

Black Hills Cabins at Quails Crossing

8/10 Good

"Decent cabins a little run down and put off by all of the signs posted outside the front door and throughout the cabin. Have to clean the floors do dishes and gather towels etc or charged 75 for cleaning."
