Nice property in a recently-developed suburb with many hotel, dining and shopping options. Spacious, well-maintained room, friendly and efficient staff. A little tricky to find the front entrance as the property is behind another building, but our GPS got us there without a problem.

It was raining hard when we arrived after a long day of driving. We stepped into a little oasis with a fireplace going and a warm smile from the front desk clerk. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed.

I changed the hotel I normally stay at in my travels to Rapid City. Normally Hilton Inns are a favorite so I tried it. Upon arrival there is a funky incense smell in the lobby that is not pleasant. It smells like a dirty foreign restaurant. All the carpets in the hallways and rooms are filthy and stained. Very disappointed. I'll go back and stay at the hotel I used to stay at when in town.
