Liked: Staff & service
The good: Great location close to stores and restaurants and right off the interstate. Nice pool. Good price for tourist area. Decent continental breakfast. Staff was friendly. Area and property felt safe. The negatives: Room carpet was dirty plus carpet in the bathroom is a big NO especially in a hotel. No blankets on the bed except the bedspread which doesn’t appear to be washed after each guest. Pillows were small and hard as rocks. We just needed it for one night traveling through the area, and prices of hotels on the weekend in this area were ridiculous. So the Foothills Inn was adequate for our needs.

Great value; poor breakfast compared to other

A nice little hotel at a great price. We stayed here two separate nights before/after flying into Rapid City. Very easy route to get here and then back into the Black Hills. It is a little dated but comfortable. The breakfast was a disappointment but sufficient. My wife brought her own for our second stay since we knew.

The property area was not that bad. It was the attendant behind the desk that was deplorable. She asked for $100 deposit when I arrived. Never told me that $10 would be deducted everyday. I asked her about it she became very rude. I don’t know if. He has mental issues. It was the same person that greeted me when I checked in and out . I arrived at 1145 am however I was aware that check in time is 3pm. I waited I was checked in at 205pm . Not a great experience

The feont staff was polite and helpful. The fault is that the hotel owner does not follow ADA law. They require service dogs to reside in a "pet room" which was unavailable and thus they declined the reservation. If you have a service dog do not reserve a room here.
