Clean, comfy and affordable rooms
The updated rooms and suites were reportedly well-appointed with modern features including flat-screen TVs, fridges, coffee-makers and microwaves. Many guests found them to be more than satisfactorily clean and comfortable for a shorter stay. Budget-conscious reviewers appreciated freebies like parking and the continental breakfast. The pet-friendly policy was another bonus as was the pleasant heated indoor pool with hot-tub. Travelers often said they got good value for money considering the competitive rates.

Convenient location off the freeway
This motel's location just off Interstate 90 proved popular with visitors who liked the way it was easily accessible by car and walking distance from several dining options. Those in town to see Mount Rushmore liked being just 40 minutes' drive from the famous monument. Two beautiful national parks were also within striking distance. There was also easy access to downtown Rapid City, the airport and shopping malls. Another convenience was the handy airport shuttle service.
