They should be embarrassed and ashamed to call it "View Inn". At the very end of a long narrow balcony, if you have binoculars, you could see Mt. Rushmore. The room smelled, the air conditioner froze and didn't work for a number of hours and the walls are white-washed concrete blocks. It is very, very rundown. My husband and I... More

In researching the dinner, it appeared that the meal would include steak grilled on a pitchfork over charcoal... More

We'd made reservations at a different place in Keystone that was HORRIBLE so went looking for a different place to stay. The marquee of the Rushmore View Inn said "Vacancy" and had an awesome "special" (2 nights/$89) so we stopped.
