We stayed at the Dakota Spur with a large group during rally week. The owners were very accommodating and helpful in many ways. Everything has been remodeled. The bathrooms are small in some rooms but it's not a big deal. We really enjoyed the lounge in the basement, which was great for a large group. They had a light breakfast... More

It is obvious that the owners are updating the hotel and doing all they can to make it comfortable for guests. We reserved three rooms for a Friday night and were all very happy with the accommodations. The deck out back is a real nice feature, as was the offstreet parking. This is a small hotel with lots of character... More

The rooms were nicely updated and Jake was very accommodating. we had 3 rooms for our whole party. They have a nice patio area where we could all hang out after a long day of fun in the hills.

Jake made us feel right a home. We loved the theme of the hotel. The room to gather at night downstairs was a add plus that most hotels do not have.

There is new ownership so I can't speak to the older reviews. The place was very nice, totally redone and is being managed and looked after by a young couple, Jake and Hanna. They were awesome. They were always able and willing to help us were very knowledgeable of the area. Plus they were very easy to just sit down... More

What a ripoff this place was. No parking is just the beginning of the issues with this place. The rooms are very small as are the bathrooms, the only thing that did work right was the cable tv. If you like New York style apts sizes for a hotel room, then this place is for you. We were all highly... More

We were expecting king size beds and found them to be full size, the rooms were very small and the bathrooms were very small. We made the... More

I stayed at the GoldTown hotel in Lead SD. I came to go gambling in Deadwood Which was only 2 miles away. It was worth the short drive that we had to take to stay at such a nice place. Very impressed!!!!!
