We spend our first two night in Custer at the Dakota Cowboy. We should have just walked away when we were inquiring about a room, we asked what they had available and the price and the desk clerk wouldn't give us an answer about the price, just kept looking to see if there were rooms (there were plenty that were... more

My husband and I stayed 1 night and were disappointed since there were so many good reviews. This motel did have free wi-fi and an outdoor swimming pool next to the main street in town. There were cigarette burns in the bedspread and I found a used shampoo bottle on the shelf in the bathroom. When someone ran water or... more

I generally do not write negative reviews but I think it is important that people know what they are getting into when they check into a place. And I suspect that one of the reviews here might be a fake, which makes me very angry. This motel is part of the Best Value Inns chain and it convinced me that... more

The room was bigger than expected and very, very clean. It is a great place if you plan on just sleeping there and spending the rest of the day somewhere else. It was very quiet - we didn't hear any truck traffic. It's an older hotel that reminds you of the motels of the fifties and unfortunately the pool shows... more

I can't believe we stayed in the same place that the others reviews were about. The place was empty, yet they put us in the room right next to the major route out of town. We listened to trucks and loud cars all night. The room was cleaned with a chemical that was close to toxic in smell. The bed,... more

This hotel was excellent, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel sits on a big piece of property so there is ample amount of parking and many activities such as a heated pool and 18 hole mini crolf course. on the property. There is also a restaurant and gift shop across the parking lot. The hotel was perfect,... more

Since it was the week before the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, it took me a while to find anything reasonably priced. I asked if the Dakota had any family rooms, and was given a room with a separate "back" bedroom, for a total of 3 Q beds. The back room had it's own shower and toilet, and our regular room had... more
