Be warned, No Maid Service
Reviewed By gatechmom5We enjoyed our stay in Rapid City but this place does not offer maid service unless you stay for 4 nights. After 4 nights, you can request this service. According to their posted signs, this is to protect privacy and adhere to social distancing guidelines. That is great to but patrons should be informed of this policy before making reservations or the room rate should be reduced. Sounds more like they couldn't get enough people to staff the hotel. Please be honest with the public! Their free breakfast was better than average. The location is a good starting off point for sightseeing in South Dakota but not for actually walking to anything in downtown Rapid City

Such an Awesome Place
Reviewed By Dustin SThis place is awesome, and we enjoy staying here each year! We love it because unlike other hotels, it's actually tucked away from the busy mainstreet of Keystone. Instead of vehicles backfiring, you'll hear the occasional Steam Engine train whistle from the 1880s Train that goes by a couple times a day. It so very sets the mood. :) The nice lady at the front desk (Laura? I'm sorry I forgot your name!) remembered us from last year - very friendly customer service! Even though it's a bit pricier, you get what you pay for. Also! They have a full bar with a food menu now. I noticed one thing: Their general manager, Kyle, I saw was working at the restaurant part of the grounds during an evening. THAT is the mark of a great manager. Someone who is willing to step in to do the "grunt" work. Also, Jordan is really friendly, and was super helpful when working with me on booking!!! Definitely recommend!

IF YOU LIKE HOT SHOWERS AND INTERNET, THIS IS NOT THE HOTEL FOR YOU!
Reviewed By Mary WWe arrived at Midnight on a Friday night after a long day of flying, dying to have a hot shower. Turned on the water...stone cold. We also had no internet....we could get it in the hallway but not in our room. The next morning we left word at the front desk to have maintenance come up and see what they could do. We arrived back at the hotel after dinner and the same thing...no internet and ice-cold water. The weird thing is that the water in the sink was piping hot. My husband called the front desk wanting to switch rooms. They were full that night but were told we could move down to the 2nd floor at 11:00 the next morning. The is wasn't ideal as we were throwing a 90th Birthday party for my other, but went ahead and packed everything up to move. Got to the new room...tepid water only, and once again steaming hot water in the sink. We did however have internet service. We had to clean up the best we could in order to get to the the party on time. We were told again that maintenance would be sent up to fix the water. We arrived home late Sunday night to NO hot water. Monday morning, we called again and were told that a new hat water heater would be installed on Tuesday . My husband wrote an email to the owners and to this date we never did hear from them. We wanted to check out and get to a new hotel but had no time due to family obligations. Tuesday night...same thing, tepid water. (desk girls had told us the plumbers had spent all afternoon putting a new water heater in.) Is this the best Comfort Suites can do? Wednesday AM still very tepid water, and hot sink water. I was so fed up, I spent 20 minutes using an ice bucket to fill hot water from the sink to the tub. Wednesday night, the water seemed slightly better but could not call it warm or comfortable. Thursday was the same. Thankfully, we checked out Friday morning to go home. We have used this hotel for the last 8 years and loved it. No discount was offered to us upon checkout, so you can be assured we will not return to our favorite hotel in the future. The fact that the owners still have not responded tells us all we need to know...they must not care. A visitor expects a clean room, good air conditioning, and hot showers. We did talk to others in the elevator and parking lot and they also had no hot water. It was not just our room. Upsetting that they had us move rooms knowing full well we would not have hot water in the new room either. Customers would much rather know the truth. Had we known we would have checked out that first day.

In addition to a beautiful location by the Black Hills, our hotel offers inviting amenities like free Wi-Fi, a free, hot breakfast and two hot tubs.
Surprise!
Reviewed By patlawrence747If I was asked for more money when preparing for my trip, it would have been no problem. But waiting until I'm home to send a bill to cover taxes to hotel after I booked and paid for package deal online, was an unwelcome surprise.

Did not get a room with Mt Rushmore wall and this place does NOT have a pool.
Reviewed By Missie BEverything appeared ok until we got to the room. I was expecting a wall with Mt Rushmore on it like the pictures showed, that did not happen (kind of disappointing). And in the picture gallery there is a picture of a reception room with a dance floor. I thought it was a pool. I was really looking forward to the pool. Beds are very soft. Pillows even softer - nothing firm on these beds. Which is not a bad thing for some. No longer are the days of professional hotel employees that wear sharp hotel attire and act professional. This one is no different. Staff is short everywhere and you will see it here as well.
