Anyway, here's a rest area and it's a good one. Straight lines to get in and out, plenty of parking, a clean bathroom and a pretty solid collection of maps and guides for local attractions. It was not staffed when I came by at 6:30 PM on a Saturday. No wifi.

The stay here at Quality Inn wasn't the worst but wasn't without its problems. The usual rundown -…read moreclean room, friendly staff, everything was in order for the most part. No issues checking in or out. The layout of the Hotel is ok with accessible entrances nearer to your room and car to be used with the same key for your room. This is cool so you don't have to only use the front entrance constantly. The issues really only were with the morning time. Most places have a designated quiet time from 10pm to 8am. As far as I know that was the case here. This Quality Inn draws I suppose truckers which is fine but one of them had his truck idling right outside the window of my room which was very disturbing. It must've been about 5am and it idled on and on and on. I know this isn't really the fault of Quality Inn per se, but it may be a good idea for them to reinforce the rule of being quiet in and around the building. Take note of this Quality Inn and address that if you're reading this. The next disturbance definitely was on them though, the maintenance/housekeeping person was vacuuming the hallway at a little after 7am. I could hardly believe it. It was very loud and unnecessary. Unless there was a huge mess on the floor, I don't see any reason to be cleaning that early in the morning. I didn't raise any complaints about this but again if this happens to be read by Quality Inn, take note that it was a noisy stay. The breakfast offerings weren't the best, but they did have nice cranberry juices and the waffle maker. That was about it. Eggs had to be refilled and even then, they weren't great nor were they warm. Biscuits and gravy weren't warm. This was about 8am so there was still a whole hour left of breakfast time. Beyond this, Quality inn wasn't horrible, except for the instances of noise in the morning which really brought down the experience.

Our room was super musty and…read moreeverything felt damp, we did what we could to air it out, but considering we were out most of the day, we didn't want to leave our first floor window open all day, the feeling never went away. Bathroom fan didn't work and the bathroom definitely needed updated. Parking sucked, we mentioned it to staff, but they brushed it off. With Sturgis starting the week after our stay, there were so many huge trucks and trailers taking up multiple spots. Kids enjoyed the pools, that area was nice and clean.

No problem.. we called one week before arrival to verify ADA ROOM. No answers, no response to messages or emails. Finally get a human night before arrival date and gal tells us we don't have an ADA ROOM because it's not in the block of rooms reserved. Why would that matter??? We reserved the room long before the date. It's our policy she says. However no one told us when we reserved the room and no one bothered to call us. Then when we try to cancel they will not refund our money!!! We need a ADA ROOM, they did not serve us as a paying customer and we should not have been charged. Best Western do better. Hotels in general need to do better to accommodate those who need ADA ROOM. One room per hotel is NOT ACCEPTABLE!

I told the Lady at the front Desk and she said "just pull up really hard on it"! Say what?!! I told her I wanted a different room which we received. The second room had a microwave that was unplugged from the wall and looked like it was dropped down a flight of stairs! surprisingly it did work, the reason it was unplugged is because it made a popping noise all night till I couldn't take it anymore and got up an unplugged it! we were supposed to get a king size bed room but they had given them all away even though I reserved the room in advance instead had to take a room with two small beds! This whole stay was a HUGE MISTAKE from the time we got there till the time we left. I hope this review helps you to NOT stay here. The location is very sketchy and you get an uneasy feeling even being there. Thank you for reading this

Next day got a text room is ready. Immediately told them dates were wrong and we had to find someplace else to stay. She acknowledged the receipt of text. I thought it was resolved the next day I get a charge for both nights. At very least we should get the second night since they knew over 24 hours that we're not coming. The other night because we were there- we were trying to fulfill reservation we made. Joe was rude. He initially said right dates the took it back when I was getting upset. Poor communication, rude and property needs updating and cleaning. Don't stay there!

We were there in the off season, so it was pretty quiet in the hotel. I think there was one other room rented out. No hotel staff, it's run like an Airbnb and you're given the entry code by text. We did not mind this at all, it felt secluded and romantic! The spa rooms were really cool! I LOVED the sand room! I wish we'd known they do massages; I would have booked some for us, but maybe they don't offer those in the off-season. The downtown location is awesome, it's so close to restaurants, bars, and Moccasin Springs. We will absolutely stay here again!!

Below are the goods and bads of this hotel. * Good - Hotel is pretty quiet so it's nice especially when working nights. - There is a pretty decent restaurant attached to the restaurant. - Free breakfast. * Bad - Some of the staff are either incompetent or don't care. Getting some basic paperwork proved to be difficult at times. - There was a dirty pair of socks in my room when I got there. I called the front desk to ask about it and they just said "you can throw it away". This made me question the overall cleanliness of the hotel. - The breakfast is very minimal and basic. Most times I skipped it. Overall it's not a bad hotel. There are not many options around that area.

What a nice place! When my wife and I first opened the door to our room it smelled clean! That is…read moresuch a reassuring feeling because if you traveled long enough you know what it's like when you stay at a place that smells stale. Ayus (sorry, I don't know how to spell his name) and his wife are so kind! My wife and I didn't have a ride to Rapid City to get our rental car. Ayus and his wife drove us into town to a mechanic to rent a car. When the shop was closed they called their friend who agreed to drive us. I don't know what we would have did if we didn't get that ride. Ayus and his wife keep the place clean. The gardens are well kept and it is a peaceful sitting outside. They always have coffee, snacks, and fruit waiting for when you wake up. It has the feel like you took a walk back in time to the 50s. It was really cool!

Of course, I wasn't using GPS like you are, so it took me a bit longer. Tucked away means quiet and quiet it was. Birds chirping were the only sounds I heard when I opened the car door. That's a good sign if you're looking for quiet. I checked in and was given room #13. Yes, it ran through my mind, uh oh, unlucky number 13. But doom and gloom weren't in the cards for me. Quite the contrary. Number 13 was exceptionally clean and comfortable. My host was friendly and helpful when it came to suggesting a place for dinner. Though trying to follow his directions found me at an oil refinery. LoL! Again, no GPS. I eventually backtracked and ended up where I started to. Quick Tip: At your next stop at a store, pick up some cheap double AA batteries and shove them into your suitcase. You'll be glad you did when your remote for the TV doesn't work. No having to go through the hassle of getting dressed and making your way to the front desk or waiting for maintenance to get to your room. Just pop them in, and you're set. As I had to do at The Pines. It didn't take but a minute before I could watch the mindless dribble which spewed forth. Oh, don't forget to pull your batteries before you leave. You'll undoubtedly need them down the road.
