Really great hostel
My friend and I arrived here in mid-June, 2009, and were greeted by the owner, who is a lovely and gracious, well-traveled, retired professional. We shared a private room in the basement, where the kitchen, a bathroom, and a common area was located. There are apparently rooms upstairs as well, but we were the last to book so we got the last room downstairs. It was a little chilly even in June, but we had plenty of blankets. Staying at this hostel is like visiting your wealthy, kind, interesting aunt or grandmother -- because the hostel is her home, but not so intimate that you feel invasive. It is superbly decorated and comfortable. It far beats the institutional-type hostels found in large cities. My friend and I met really nice people here and even ended up sightseeing with them for a day. Very good hostel, and I think people driving through the area, hiking for a day or two, photographing in nearby Deadwood, or just looking for a day or two away will really appreciate it. It's also close enough that you could use it as a base for exploring Crazy Horse/Rushmore and Custer State Park, but my friend and I stayed there the night before visiting those three sites, then stayed at a cheap chalet in Custer after the sightseeing and that worked out well for us.
