We discovered this little gem about 10 years ago. Whenever we are in Custer, The Rocket Motel is our first choice. The only thing I would like different, would be the temp controls in the room. Hard to manage. Would love the option to run a fan to muffle outside noise. Otherwise a wonderful place to stay

The cleanliness at this cute motel was top notch. Everything was pristine. The decor was 1950’s style and worked well. It was a chilly night (woke up to frost of the car windows). Our room temperature was 55 F., a good sleeping temp but too cold for a morning shower. The heat apparently wasn’t on yet.

Very nice place! Not the typical hotel. This is a retro style hotel with a fifties feel. Enjoyed our stay.

Some of the parking areas can be a little awkward for a motorcycle but the overall experience is worth it. We would stay here again. Nice walking distance to area shopping and eating.

The app told me I had already paid so when I was confused by the owner asking for payment he got ANGRY with me immediately and berated me. I called customer service and turned out the problem was with the app but the damage had been done because of his treatment of me for just being confused. I wasn’t accusatory or anything. Then I had to spend time trying to talk him into being calm with me. If anywhere else had had rooms I would’ve left. As it was we did leave a night early. My husband went to check us out cause no way I was going back into that office. He told my husband no refunds when my husband didn’t ask for one. And then he added some $20 fee on top of the $491 we had already paid. So we spent 2 nights instead of 3 for $500. And the room was TINY. Bathroom door very squeaky so I had to position it in a way I could get in and sit on the toilet in the night without waking up my husband. It was difficult. The shower is only warm if you turn the hot on all the way with no cold at all. Rooms have regular keys and face the outside so very insecure. And the guy keeps your CC info on a handwritten card with the full number. It’s in the front office and he doesn’t stay in there so anyone could walk in and take them. Would never stay again.
