Comfort Inn & Suites Rapid City near Mt. Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay here. It is a well-lit property, in a safe and secure part of town. In the middle of everything! Surrounded by plenty of shops, restaurants, and gas stations. The room/bathroom was clean. The bed was really comfortable. All of the appliances were in working order. There was ample parking and it was free! Also enjoyed the complimentary breakfast which had both hot and cold options. Staff were very friendly, professional, and helpful."
