“This place balances location and renovated comfort well, especially for those visiting the nearby Badlands Amphitheater. The on-site Indian restaurant, Sam's Kitchen, is a definite plus, and room service is available. While there's a bar downstairs, it might not always be open, but the super nice staff more than compensate.”
