My stay at the Residence Inn was a mixed bag. The hotel has a great location near parks and restaurants, and the staff was friendly enough, which made the experience pleasant. On the downside, the breakfast was pretty basic and fell short compared to other Marriott locations I've stayed at, plus there were some minor issues with housekeeping and room maintenance.

I had a fantastic stay at Residence Inn By Marriott Rapid City. The hotel is quite modern and clean, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. The breakfast was excellent, offering a wide variety of options to start my day (the fresh pineapple was a good treat!). However, I did experience some issues with the check-in process, which was a bit unpleasant at first. The wifi was also inconsistent at times in my room.

My stay at Residence Inn By Marriott Rapid City was largely positive. The 1-bedroom suite was clean, spacious, and well-equipped, perfect for my family. While the location was convenient for exploring the Black Hills, I did find the noise from the nearby hotels a bit distracting. Overall, it felt like a home away from home with friendly staff and great amenities.
