Amazing beds!
The beds were super comfortable and they did a lot of really nice things to make this a wonderful place to stay. They gave Pantene shampoo AND conditioner which I appreciated. I really liked having a fridge and a microwave in my room and the coffee they served tasted great! This is a really nice hotel and for once, it was an affordable rate for me to stay there. The only thing that was not top notch was that the fan in the bathroom wasn't working. Otherwise, I would have rated this room as perfect.

A++++ Place to stay
Great! Everyone was friendly and efficient, the room was very nice, clean and fridge and microwave available. There was coffee and cookies available in the lobby for guests. The continental breakfast was excellent, the price of the room was really good and the location was perfect, walking distance to a good restaurant, gas across the street and the mall just minutes away. Pool was clean and 2 hot tubs. We were extremely happy and will be staying at this motel whenever we are in town.

clean room, but felt outdated. Probably good for families ,but not for adults traveling alone. Took too long to get breakfast. Too many people using the one waffle iron.

Great hotel!
This is a great hotel, and we had never stayed there before, but plan to stay there next time we're in Rapid. The pool was clean and warm, and the staff were all very friendly.

Short drive from hotel
Rapid City has a lot of fun and exciting things for families. During the summer, take your kids to Storybook Island. It's free and fun! Also, be sure to visit Crazy Horse Memorial. It's amazing!!
