I was expecting a cozy and clean inn, maybe even a little bit quaint. I did like the front lobby area and there were game tables up the stairs. That was pretty much all I liked. The rooms were well worn. The carpets were stained lightbulbs missing there was only one plug, plus a power bar that I found on the floor behind the refrigerator. They did replace the shower head which I appreciated since the shower pressure wasn’t strong enough to wash my hair. But the staff was reasonably nice and I appreciated their kindness. All said, I probably would not go back.

The hotel is old but well maintained. The carpet on the stairs coming in from the north side smelled slightly, and one of the two key-doors for building entry did not work. There is no elevator so you lug your bags up the stairs to the 2nd floor. Breakfast is passable. Cereal, OJ, Milk, Bagels, and Jimmy Dean sausage biscuits to microwave. No fruit.

Beds were comfortable and housekeeping did come in during our 2 day stay. Breakfast was some cereal (in bulk containers) and toast / bagels also still in the multi pack bags, no juice. After watching another guest stick his hand in the bagel bag and go thru 3 to get the one he wanted we were out. If you are used to the big brand experience this hotel will disappoint you for about the same price.

I approached the staff asking for a one hour delay in check out. The agent said he'd leave a note. When I arrived 30 minutes past normal check out the agent now on staff read me the riot act that the housekeeper was waiting to clean my room and that no note had been left. In reality, the housekeepers had just started cleaning rooms. The hotel was maybe 40% full the night we stayed over. There are many places to stay in Rapid City. This property should not be on the top of your list. Property is outdated.

This property is older with the old musty smell to it, the carpets were old, and the room carpets and reclining chair were needing cleaned. The bedding appeared to be nice but was clearly older and old fashioned. I've never seen a bluer bathtub and wall surround. 😀 The coffee pot on the bathroom counter was dirty with a half pot of coffee in it still from the prior guests. It became a joke to see how long before the cleaner cleaned it. We stayed 5 nights, on our last night is when it got cleaned. This was also the day when an envelope was left with her name on it suggesting we give her a tip for all she had done for us. What? The bed sheet on top was folded in half and tucked in on the sides only so when you climb in bed, your feet stuck out the end touching the bedspread. Weird. So first thing, we tore off the sheets and made the bed correctly. Two days later, she did it again. So, we tore it all apart and made it correctly again. Continental breakfast was provided daily. This consisted of bread to make toast, a couple flavors of bagels in a bread sleeve, two flavors of Quaker instant oatmeal, peanut butter & grape jelly packets. Small fridge had cream cheese packets, a gallon of whole milk, and 2-3 boxes or OJ and Jimmy Dean sausage egg and cheese

They had some issue with the credit cards so everyone had their credit cards declined. Which meant the front had to run it again which meant there was a long check in line for no reason. They say they are dog friendly and I called to check and then they said they didn’t have that note and had no dog friendly rooms so I got left stranded. They told me they would cancel the reservation but I haven’t seen that yet.

Outdoor pool was clean. Breakfast is basic: cereal, bagels, toast, premade breakfast sandwiches. That was fine for us.
Only thing that was strange was that the day after we arrived and went out for the day, upon our return, we realized our room was tidied up. Not a big deal but after one night is not the norm I’ve experienced at other hotels.

DO NOT STAY HERE , it is an old supper 8 very old! Had half of the room go black, Called the front desk they didn’t answer. Had to call the reservation number that I had to get them to answer the phone. He knew exactly what the problem was, but didn’t tell us about the situation before we got into the room.. then we had a mouse in our room. It crawled up the phone cord about 6 inches from my head before the mouse saw me and took off. We saw the mouse several times after that. Then at the nighttime I had the mouse crawl on my bed when we went to check out I thought they might compensate me in someway for the mouse, and they did not. I was quite upset with the whole situation.. the breakfast I wouldn’t eat it and there were homeless people in there helping themselves PLEASE DO NOT STAY HERE!

We saw a room across the hall that appeared to have new carpet so maybe they are working their way through the rooms. No elevator so if bringing more than a backpack, recommend 1st floor.
