We had a wonderful stay at the Fairfield Inn & Suites in Rapid City on May 12. I was concerned about staying here because of several poor reviews, but we had a quiet and wonderful stay. As mentioned by someone else, the young gal at the front desk, Ashley, was awesome. She was checking people in, answering the phone, giving... More

Didn't realize when we made the reservation that it was attached to an indoor waterpark. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Went down for breakfast the next morning and it was so crowded, there wasn't any place to sit and it was extremely noisy. The food area was a mess as the staff just couldn't keep up... More

Last year we stayed next door at the La Quinta and the hallways had a musty, chlorine-y odor that we attributed to too many wet kids running around from the adjoining water park. Well, this year we tried the Fairfield, which also connects to the water park and it is the polar opposite! Very clean, no smell of mildew, VERY... More

We stayed at the Fairfield Inn and Suites for 3 nights and were very pleased. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was excellent with eggs, sausage, cereals, waffles, toast and many other good choices for both adults and children. The WaTiki Water Park which Is next door is an excellent place to cool down or just watch as... More

This is a fairly new and clean hotel. The rates are very reasonable and the rooms were clean with comfortable beds. The free WiFi had decent speed for general surfing most of the time, but not enough for the web meetings that I needed to have. In all fairness, this was during a time when everyone was stranded in the... More

I would rate this hotel average meaning it was neither bad but it wasn't excellent. It offered all the amenities one could ask for while staying there for one night. The room was clean although felt a little tight with a queen size bed. The complimentary breakfast was decent and the dining area was fairly large to accommodate bigger crowds.... More

The sleeping rooms are clean and up to date, and the rate was great. They have a complimentary continental breakfast with waffles, fruit, yogurt, boiled eggs, coffee...enough to fill you up. Ashly checked us in and she was exceptional! She was genuinely concerned about our situation (we were stranded in SD due to snow storm) and did everything possible to... More

This is not a place to go to, if you want some quite time. The breakfast area was crowded with the families, so plan on extra time to get your waffles. Our room was good, but the shower water was only warm and not hot.
