Great big clean room, very good breakfast and helpful friendly staff only thing didn’t appreciate was the smell in the room very musty other than that everything was great
Nice location. Easy parking. Beautiful clean tastefuly decorated room. High quality breakfast. Very nice staff at front desk. It was very quiet. Loved it! Only one night, wish we had a longer stay. Definitely recommend.
Best accommodations of my trip, and very economical. Large nice quiet room. Ice maker available. And for breakfast they had Jimmy Dean sandwiches with sausage, egg, and cheese.
As a loyal member of a certain hotel chain, I have started looking for cheaper hotels because I believe all chain hotel prices have gotten out of control. My wife discovered this hotel while vacationing in Rapid City, SD. Foothills Hotel offered all the amenities of the big chain hotels at about half the price. Hotel very clean and worth the money.
The room was clean, the staff was awesome, a/c worked great, and the parking was very good. It was very quiet considering busy all around. Had a small issue with the tv but it was quickly taken care of. It was right in the heart of where we wanted to be when we wanted to be there. Will definitely stay there again...

Staff less than friendly
We traveled with our small dog. We had a dog friendly room with easy access outside for her potty breaks. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
We liked the location and the room was fine. The bed was very comfortable and nice. The only thing that I think could be improved were the stains on the carpet and chair. It was noticeable and i thought maybe they could shampoo the carpet and spot clean the chair.
We enjoyed our stay, the price was right.
Thanks
Staff was friendly, hotel was quiet, nice pool. Room could have been cleaner as there was lipstick stains on the dresser that got on my phone and room itself was dated but overall a good experience and would stay again!
The room was clean and we would stay there again. However, the mattress needs to be replaced. Breakfast consisted of several choices of cold cereal, juices and a Jimmy Dean's microwave croissant sandwich. It was good enough to get us going. The property is older but okay. The front desk staff was very helpful and the person working breakfast was consistently cleaning the area and replenishing juices and milks as needed.
Room would have been clea er. Mattresses and pillows were not real comfortable. Good location and friendly helpful staff. Activities going on outside were very unfavorable!
