We enjoyed our entire week stay. The price was right, it is very conveniently located and QUIET! The kitchen was minimal 2 hotplates in the counter (no oven). A dishwasher that was past its prime and a full size refrigerator. The flatware and dishes were too few in my opinion (2 if somethings, 3 of another). Oh, yeah... It was clean, not just the room but the common areas.

Ours didn't work. Breakfast is a joke. No hot food. Only bagels, muffins, cereal, fruit and coffee. I will stay elsewhere next time I'm in Rapid City.
