The hotel rooms were pretty decent and clean. We had 3 rooms, all with queen beds, the pullout sofa and a kitchenette. The mattresses are really hard. The hot tub did not have jets that worked. There were no pool towels. When we checked in, the guy at the front desk was not very friendly. He acted annoyed that he had to help us with 3 reservations. We stayed there one night. Definitely not going back. I would say it is worth the few extra miles to stay in Rapid City, especially in the off season.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. We stayed 4 nights. Although breakfast area was clean and breakfast was adequate, all four mornings offered sausage as the meat and sugared donut holes as the pastry. A variety would have been nice.
