“In my opinion, this hotel offers a blend of family-oriented facilities with its indoor waterpark and event spaces, alongside a dose of local charm in its décor. Its pet-friendly policies and responsive service also stand out. I think the main appeal is the hotel's proximity to Rapid City's attractions, like Mount Rushmore and Custer State Park, along with its award-winning dining.”
