Not a good experience at this Howard Johnson Hotel. We stayed 4 nights. On our 2nd day of the stay, when the room was cleaned, somehow, some of our items went missing. After we complained to the front desk, the next day our housekeeper, Helen (the one we complained about), decided she was not going to clean our room, therefore... more

Booked 2 nights in Rapid City. The Hotel is not in a tourist area but is between Rushmore and the Bad Lands in Rapid City across from a high school. Kind of wish I had stayed somewhere more in the mountains -- but -- The hotel was very clean and the 2 king bed room was very nice. Staff was... more

After spending 2 nights in Custer, we moved to Rapid City to be closer to the Badlands and Devils Tower. This Howard Johnson's was easy to find. There was plenty of parking. Check in was fast and our room was very clean. There was a microwave and fridge in the room. Our room had 2 queen beds and was roomy.... more

My family just got back from a trip to South Dakota. I booked this hotel for my family soley based on the reviews here on Trip Advisor- normally Howard Johnson's would not be my first, or even second or third choice-but the great reviews were spot-on! Our room was one with 2 king beds-very nice to have a ton of... more

Stayed here on May 27th, 2008. Very nice motel for the price – $60 with taxes. Clean, two queen beds, refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, hi speed internet with provided cable. In just about the center of town. Not too close to the airport but then none of the others are either. Staff very helpful. Definitely would recommend this motel to... more

We had a double king room, which allowed our family a lot of room to spread out. Room was very clean and felt new or newly redone. The pool seemed like a standard hotel pool, but a nice perk was that it also had two hot tubs. My kids had a blast climbing along the underwater ledge in the pool,... more

Stayed here partially on the recommendation of Trip Advisor ratings as well as the good price. At the time it was the number 2 rated hotel in Rapid City. I guess we expected more being the the second rated hotel in Rapid City. Don't get me wrong it was a nice place to stay, the room was large and the... more

I would say the my overall experience was fine as couple of things were nice about the hotel like the comfort of the rooms, staff was cooperative and location was good. My some grudges were no wireless internet, and the exhaust in the rest room is just too weak. Though I managed to get room freshner but it can be... more

Greetings, Biggest complaint is that they nickel and dime you and you must pay close attention during check in and check out. At check in you will be asked to initial a document that requires you to notify them at checkout that you wish to have a "Safe fee / Safe tax" removed from your bill. If you notify them... more
