Great stay as usual. Our go to spot in Custer. It was a very cold and breezy night, the room heater took some time to warm the room up. Looking forward to our next visit.

Retro! Very clean and quiet. It is obvious the owner takes great pride in the rooms. No breakfast...but the coffee was excellent. Smaller rooms, but everything is perfect.

Owner run, clearly cares about the upkeep and the aesthetics of this retro mid-century motel. The room was in awesome condition, it felt newly built and tidy. I had a great stay and will stay here again should I return. A great stay for a lone wanderer and caravans alike.
