The owners are great and friendly but really the place is way overpriced by 40%. The only thing it has going is location. more

It is a nice motel but nothing special. The owner tries to be funny and is friendly. The rooms are ok and looked clean. It is next to two restaurants, only make sure you take the one behind Cattleman, it is so much better (go upstairs). Although it is pretty central in Custer the location doesn't look really great.

My girlfriend and i found the website for the chief motel while planning our trip to SD. The website makes it look pretty good... but its not. After driving ALL DAY, we finally got to the chief motel. Very Ma and Pa. The website advertised free breakfast at a restaurant close to the hotel, but when we checked in they... more

Clean and relatively comfortable, there was nothing really special about this room. The price is right, at under $100, and you certainly get what you pay for. A severe shortage of outlets in my room lead to some overloaded circuits, with the hotel using octopus outlets behind the mini-fridge and table... less than safe. Also, though they claimed to have... more

I chose the Chief Hotel for the great reviews on here, but I was disappointed right at the start. I made sure in booking our room that I asked for the "Large Queen... more

This place is GREAT! The owners are wonderful; they took the time when we checked in to highlight areas of interest on a map for us. The motel is an older one that has been well taken care of. The rooms are clean with extra warm blankets and plush pillows. HINT: stay in the room that has the separate bedroom;... more

This is a great motel if you are not interested in a lot of amnenities. Close to restaurants and sightseeing. The people are very nice and helpful. more

The Chief Motel isn't much to look at, but it was wonderful. The owners are extrememly friendly and the staff does an excellent job making sure your stay is just what you want. Our room was cleaned every day - the pool was GREAT - and for once, we were given more than enough towels for our family of four... more
