Retro! Very clean and quiet. It is obvious the owner takes great pride in the rooms. No breakfast...but the coffee was excellent. Smaller rooms, but everything is perfect.

Rocket Motel is retro and so cute! I was doing the Lean Horse 100 mile running race and the motel was a short walk to the start line. The staff are all super nice and accommodating and I really just liked the overall vibe of the place. I stay at a lot of hotels for work and this was a nice break from the chain hotel feeling as it is locally owned , unique, and has very cool neon decor outside.

Owner run, clearly cares about the upkeep and the aesthetics of this retro mid-century motel. The room was in awesome condition, it felt newly built and tidy. I had a great stay and will stay here again should I return. A great stay for a lone wanderer and caravans alike.

This is a cute little motel that has been renovated. The owners are very nice and the amenities they offer are top notch. We were right across from the Mickleson Bike trail and 1-2 blocks from all the restaurants.

Rocket motel rocks!
This was our 2nd time to stay there and we’ll always be back when we visit Custer! Clean, comfortable, and just a super cute little retro room. They don’t have breakfast but there’s plenty of options in the area. Highly recommend!
