Unique, breakfast restaurant with the hotel. Nice field, not a standard motel/hotel setting. Think it would be nice if not this hotel but all hotels would set aside rooms for people with pet allergies. Understand the economic argument, but we cater to no smoking, pets in rooms , no peanuts, All sorts of stuff like that but people with allergies need consideration.

This is by far the cutest hotel we have stayed at. I wanted something different and the pictures showed an English cottage style place. It did not dissapoint. Im sure in winter it will look a bit different but when we went they had hanging flowers, outdoor seating, tons of games and books which pur kids lived and the pool. The cafe was amazing and so cute. We stayed in a 2 bed room and it could have been better updated in the bathroom but we were not in the room much in the 4 days so it was fine however we will definitely be booking the latger room with 3 beds. The beds were comfortable and it was very quiety. All the staff were extremely kind and helpful. Its a couple minutes from downtown custer so super convenient but tucked away enough to be quiet and away from the hustle and bustle.

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.

This was a unique place which is what we wanted, not a chain hotel. Really close to Crazy Horse. We had a quick stay and weren't able to take advantage of the pool or patio with fun yard games. We opted for a room with a balcony which was really a bonus for having morning breakfast without going too far. There are stairs though to those rooms. The restaurant across the parking lot was convenient, but additional cost. We had our own food and ate on our balcony.

Cute, super clean, and great customer service. My only negative was the distance from restaurants, bars, and shops. The only way was via a busy road with no walkway - you needed to drive to get to a business. With that said, I would definately stay here again.

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.
