This hotel is located near all the places and attractions we wanted to visit on our vacation. The best part was spending the evening at the indoor water park relaxing and enjoying the great food and beverages offered by the hotels restaurant (Sliders) while the children played. Will definitely stay at this hotel again!
I travel with my dog. I stay at LQ for one reason.......they accept pets without question. They make you feel like your pet is part of the family. Not so at LQ/Rapid City. I was asked if I was traveling with a pet when I reserved and again when I checked in. The reason: They were grouping the pet owners in one wing of the first floor. The bad news: the rooms smelled like flea spray. It was disgusting. Ill never stay here again, and if im ever asked if Im traveling with a pet........it will be a huge red flag. I just stayed in three LQ's in a row and 2 out of 3 were sub-par.

The hotel was clean and obviously very family-friendly. The hotel is attached to an indoor waterpark. The hotel is promoted as 100% smoke free, but it is also 100% pet friendly. I wasn't aware of this when I booked and prepaid the weekend. When I was checking in, I saw 4 families either entering with their dogs or walking around the parking area. I requested a non-pet, allergen-free room and they said that wasn't an option. The hotel did a good job of posting signs about "Quiet Zones" but there were so many kids running around and hall noise from early morning until after 10:00 on Saturday night. If you are looking for a peaceful night and have any pet issues, I would say avoid this place. If you have a family, the attached waterpark, looked quite fun. The staff does a good job keeping the place clean and accommodating. They have a fenced pet play area off the back side.
Our room was very clean and the staff was kind. The beds were comfortable and clean. The water park gets a bit crowded but fun for all ages. Needs a bigger parking lot but other than that we are very satisfied with our stay. Great location right off the interstate.
First stay in a hotel ever with our two dogs Riley and Buddy and were not sure what to expect. We were expecting them to be tolerated, but they were welcomed and loved by staff, front desk staff Courtney came out and welcomed them, along with rest of staff. If I was not a pet owner, I would not stay away because of pets staying here. Management has figured out how to balance this by where they put people.
Great continental breakfast with a lot of selections, indoor water park was fun, even though we are early 60's-try the "lazy river" and the hot tub.
Also a great location for the touristy thing and exploring the area and if you want a "great burger, try Fudruckers at the Rushmore Mall just West of the La Quinta (1 to 2 miles) on North side of I-90.
