Mixed service: several guests praised friendly/helpful staff, but other reports describe indifferent, demoralized employees, delayed or self-served requests (e.g., hangers) and housekeeping entering without request.
Location

Location repeatedly praised (convenient, close to lobby for elderly guests, good parking); many guests cite location as a key positive.
Room Quality
5.5
Rooms are comfortable in bed but show maintenance issues: outdated or under-construction appearance, holes in walls, exposed HVAC, mixed reports of working/broken fridges, occasional lack of hot water and cold rooms.

Amenities are inconsistent: small breakfast offered and a usable pool, but issues like no hair dryer, no in-room coffee maker, broken fridge, and an unusable advertised hot tub were reported.
Value for Money
8
Many guests cited good rates and considered the stay a good value for price, though a few felt the property was overpriced given maintenance shortcomings.

5.5
Breakfast received mixed to negative feedback: limited selection and occasional lack of coffee; some guests found the small breakfast acceptable while others expected better variety.

Overpriced, but quiet.
Pros:

The restaurant next door is decent. Pillows are comfortable.

Cons:

For the price paid, I would have expected a more updated room. The bed was a clean mattress on top of a metal frame. The hot tub that is advertised is concreted in.

Would probably not stay or recommend this property
Pros:

The rates

Cons:

Room looked like it was under construction. Heating/cooling system did not have a cover on top. Worked fine but didn’t look good. Hole on wall behind door. Carpets needed a good cleaning and edges of carpet REALLY needed vacuuming. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom had newer tub /shower and newer sink but no stopper in sink Nice fluffy towels. outside of building looked inviting. Not what I feel lived up to the usual standard of a Wyndham property

A run-down property with a demoralized workforce.
Pros:

The beds were very comfortable.

Cons:

This property is run-down and needs many minor repairs. It has broken lampshades and a crumbling parking lot, and there was no coffee for breakfast. Our room had a closet with no clothes hangers. We had to ask repeatedly for hangers, but we had to fetch them ourselves; they did not bring them to us. Management appears to have demoralized its workforce, who act indifferently to all inquiries and seldom greet us; they don't even smile when we greet them. Top management needs to look into this, evaluate why this is happening, and make major changes.

Our experience
Cons:

The room wasn't cleaned very well, the bathroom had hair in the shower and sink there was no hair dryer the shower rail was broke screws were missing there was red stains on the shower wall
There was box elder bugs on the windows and curtains the floors were stained
There was some sort of hard objects along the wall and behind the headboard was very dirty with trash
We brought clorax wipes and wiped down everything we also bought trashbags and bagged up our trash there was no trash can in the room
The ice box was dirty had stains on it like it wasn't wiped down or changed out
The lamp by the TV was flickering on and off when it was turned on so for safety reasons we kept it unplugged
We stayed because there was no other rooms available because of the event happening in rapid city
Other then the room being dirty our stay was ok the location was good we didn't have any trouble with traffic

A mixed bag of good and bad.
Cons:

1. We found food spread around at the entrance to our room, and it was not picked up until the next day, even though we complained twice. Some food inadvertently stuck to our footwear, and we tracked it into our room, making a mess.
2. The shower floor was slippery, which poses a hazard, since there was no safety bar. The knob that controls the water temperature did not function well and should be replaced with a more modern fixture.
