Stayed here for two nights. The hotel is a very average, slightly rundown budget-style hotel. Roomsize is ok, but the room itself was nothing to write home about. But it was clean, and beds were okay. Check-in staff was constantly interrupting check-in, to answer phone-calls, and the general impression was that the hotel was a bit understaffed. Breakfast was below... More

I apologize if you did not have a great experience at our hotel. It is our goal to "wow" each and every one of our guests, and to that end, we have all new mattresses in our hotel and are in the process of installing flat screen TV's. Our expanded continental breakfast does include waffles as well as hot pocket... More

I haven't stayed at any Howard Johnsons before, and expected them to be kind of cheap-y, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one! Granite counters everywhere, a large and lovely indoor pool with two hot tubs! All rooms are suite-style and are very large, with a separate area with a coffee table, end tables and a couch. The rooms... More

This hotel was one of the better prices we found for a short get away (Sept '10, not Dec '10 - that was the oldest option). Both my wife & I thought it was excellent! It was very clean - our first concern. The staff was friendly. The breakfast had a lot of variety and was in a fairly large... More

WOW! These folks have it figured out. Every member of the staff goes above and beyond, because they want you to enjoy your stay.

really one of the best Howard Johnson we stayed, mainly, I think, because it's a new building. Large and clean room with TV, noisy fridge, microwaves; bathroom with nice shower; breakfast room too small for the hotel size and not great food quality. The hotel is not far from the center where you can have a good dinner in a... More

My husband and I stayed there in October. We got a good deal and had a great experience. The hotel in clean and right off 1/90 interstate. They had a good selection of breakfast items and a manager reception Monday through Thursday. The pool was nice and they have two hot tubs. More

We went there on a weekday in late October. I haven't stayed in a Howard Johnson for more than 7 years but this one was really nice, everything looked clean and new. I haven't gotten such a good deal with pool, free breakfast and free wifi for less than $60 in years. Perfect location to quickly get to the mall... More

Located in the downtown area of Rapid City. Very clean hotel, large swimming pool area and two hot tubs great the weary traveler. A good selection awaits the guest while eating at the breakfast buffet. We enjoyed happy hour in which the hotel served wine, beer on tap, and soda during the week. The front desk recommended several excellent choices... More
