This hotel is unethically being kept open on the ground floor while the entire second and third floors are being gutted. Grinding, pounding and scrapping going on from 7 am to 10 pm. If Choice Priviledges doesn't give me a refund, I'm cancelling their credit card. More

My brother and I were traveling to a funeral in MN from Seattle. We'd had a horrible experience at the Rodeway Inn in Spokane, so I was delighted to find the exact opposite experience at this hotel. The room was clean, huge, and comfortable. The beds were comfortable, and I didn't have to ask for extra pillows, as I often... More

First of all the whole place smelled like wet dog, the woman behind the counter had no clue as to which rooms were on the ground level, the toilet looked like it was made for a Hobbit not a full grown man, the non-smoking rooms are right next to the smoking rooms which kind of defeats the purpose of booking...

This hotel was horrible! We had booked 2 rooms for a 4 wheeling trip. My wife and I arrived first and found the room stunk, carpet was dirty and very worn. The bathroom had spider webs and dead bugs on floor and the jacuzzi in room was not clean. We immediately decided we were not staying there, so called front... More

The worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The bathroom smelled sour (possibly urine). After being closed up all day, the room smelled sour too. The bedsread was stained. No wireless in room. No hair dryer in room (what!!!!?), Halls smelled musty and smoky, breakfast area didn't smell fresh. One night we couldn't get cold water in bathroom - only... More

Would never stay there again. Dirty, unclean sheets, leaky pipes in bathroom, no internet service in room as advertised, broken blinds - so that anyone outside could see in. Rude employees, front desk clerk was not there for check-out and had to ask a cleaning person to get someone, after waiting for about 10 minutes. More

We were very pleased with our recent stay at the Rapid City Econo Lodge. We were looking for a motel close to the Mall and it was the best value. The Lobby was attractive with WiFi available. The desk clerks were very friendly and efficient. Although our room was spacious, there was no refrigerator, microwave, or hair dryer. Everything was... More

The room with tax was $94.21 for 2 queen beds. This place could definitely use some refurbishing. Beds were not very comfortable. Our room's air conditioner was not working properly. The room appeared to be not too clean, with a stained stool. The entry way to the motel was dirty also, which gives a bad first impression to start with.... More

Unfortunately I read the reviews after booking the hotel and with just a few minutes left to cancel and few options elsewhere we decided to keep it, simply because of the waterside. The pool was small, dirty and overly crowded. The room was horribly smoky smelling! Bathroom was in bad repair with old gum on the floor, nasty tile and... More
