“I think this hotel stands out for its practical kitchenette setup, making longer stays much easier. The location near shopping and dining strikes me as convenient, particularly for those exploring the Black Hills. While breakfast may lean towards carbs, the option to cook in your room is a definite plus; to me, that's a worthy trade-off.”
