Nice budget hotel and great location.
You won't be bored while staying at this hotel. Blackstone Lodge & Suites is located near a number of fantastic tourist attractions. These points of interest include the Mount Rushmore National Memorial, the Crazy Horse Memorial, the Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway, Custer State Park, Deadwood, Sturgis and the Black Hills. People have also appreciated that a stay at the hotel comes at a budget price and won't break the bank.

Some features may be slightly out of sync.
There have been some comments about TV remotes, hot tubs and Wi-Fi not always working or working slowly.

Confusing heating/air conditioning units.
Though complaints have been limited, a couple of guests mentioned having trouble figuring out how to get the heating and air conditioning units in their rooms to work. One or two people mentioned having a sign posted with directions would be appreciated.
