Okay, but not great
The property looks amazing in the photos and the exterior was very nice and the flowers were beautiful. The room appeared nice when we entered, but the overwhelming smell of fabreeze room fresher was almost more than we could deal with. After airing out the room a bit, we settled in. Went to take a shower and noticed brown spots on the floor near the sink and bathroom; when we used a wipe to clean them up, it smelled and looked like dog crap. Probably why the room had been so fabreezed. Very disappointed to discover the crap and made us wonder about the rest of the cleanliness of the room. It is a nice location and is quaint. Thin walls and floors so you hear most everyone else in the building. The only staff member that we encounted was friendly, but we were there on the last day the motel was open for the season.

Surprised in a good kind of way!
Older property that has been beautifully maintained. Very clean! Some nice touches like warm cookies and milk in the lobby in the afternoon. Did not use but 2 pools one inside and one outside. Walking path. Pickle ball courts. Free washer and dryer with detergent and softener. Will return.

Great hotel on outskirts of Custer We absolutely loved our stay, lots of extra touches, super comfy bed, lots of amenities, including outdoor pool, indoor pool and hot tub.Great place families with kids, outdoor games like cornhole, giant chess, connect 4, etc. Good shower pressure, room fridge that actually cools. Great gathering patios for larger families. Everything was super clean and well kept. Great location in black hills. Very nice and personal in front desk.

Our stay was delightful. We received a text prior to check-in and everything went smoothly when we arrived. Our room was really nice and very clean! The laundry basket was a nice touch. The bed and pillows were SUPER comfortable. The grounds were so well cared for and I loved all of the flowers. There were several dining options with a two-mile radius so I would say everything we needed was within walking distance. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again sometime soon!

Everything was excellent, staff were nice and friendly but not easily accessible. Many extra amenities over chain hotels or motels!! Loved the added decorations and flowers everywhere. They also had a few food items that could be delivered to your room! Loved that they had a little notebook that you could fill out any items for cleaning staff to replace as well without having to call the front desk. A+++ place to stay! Only thing I would recommend is some kind of doorbell or buzzer when people come to the front desk because there was rarely anyone there to greet you for questions. If you call the main phone number someone will answer though.

This place was beautifully decorated inside and out. Great price for amenities: indoor pool and hot tub area was huge and actually had towels stocked plus many games for kids throughout. Outdoor pool and pickle ball court was an added bonus!! Offered self service laundry facility and provided free detergent. The only thing to improve would be a bell at the front desk because there is rarely any one there. They are usually “in the back” and have to call the facility to speak with someone.

Henri was amazing! No energy drinks needed for her. However the other young lady who worked the counter was helpful but had no personality at all, didn't smile once. Young people, right? The cafe staff and service and food was great! We really enjoyed our 3 days stay at the Bavarian! We'd love to come back, some day.

Not feelin good cafe.
The property is dated. A lot of noise from other rooms. I found the whole process of acquiring from necessities complicated. But above all the purported “Feel good cafe”, is really just a gas station breakfast. Great name though.

We only planned on one night, but we loved it here so much we stayed for two! The room was adorable and so clean! The lobby and pool area were amazing! Outside sitting areas are fantastic. Great detail in everything! Free cookie hour as well! Bravo!

Stay at this hotel!!! My niece said, “ awwww do we have to go.” Rooms were nice but best part was basketball court and pickleball area. Our family spent several hours outside enjoying the sports equipment. The outdoor pool was refreshing and there was also an indoor one we did not have time to use. Very pleasant decor with lots of cute touches. A breakfast place right next door for the morning with good coffee. Would stay here again in a heart beat.

Lucky me
My wife picked the Inn and I was not impressed. The one positive aspect about the in is it’s dog friendly policy. The room was a tad bit musty for me and bathroom was outdated. The drive to town was short.

Very clean, it gives a boutique hotel feel, a lot of attention to detail. I love all the flowers and flower baskets. Staff was very friendly and we were able to do laundry for free as well. The restaurant is very cute including the to-go containers, breakfast sandwich and coffee drink were tasty as well. Will definitely stay again and recommend other to stay as well
