GrandStay Residential Suites - Rapid City

8/10 Good
"Grandstay Hotel was easy to get to and nicely located. The staff was helpful. Our room was clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable. The couch and chair were not very comfortable. It was nice to have a kitchenette and it was adequately stocked. The breakfast was great! Hot and cold items everyday. We did not like the coffee. We used the hot tub, it was working and the temp was hot enough. The fitness room was closed down so we weren't able to use it. We would choose this location again."
