Super 8 by Wyndham Custer/Crazy Horse Area

8/10 Good
"I have stayed at this hotel several times in the past few years. The hot tub is great after long days hiking at Custer State Park. The staff was mixed. Some were more helpful than others who required prompting to be helpful. The cleanliness is up to my expectations but if you’re looking for floors & rooms in pristine condition you’d likely not be satisfied. For me, I need a roof over my head, a hot tub, & a place within a close proximity to Sylvan Lake. All in all it’s a good value for the stay, I would recommend & fully expecting to stay here again on future visits."
