This was the worst hotel we have ever stayed out. They charged an outrageous rate of $250 for a room that was filthy, old and disgusting. I would not even let my children take a shower. There were cob webs in the corners everywhere, nothing worked - remote, alarm clock, air conditioning. When I went to open the window to... more

Staff was great. Room was clean. Price was right. Bar was handy. more

The guests are greeted in a lobby out of the old West, dark and carved woods, with a hint of the modern tucked away almost our of site, a computer for residents to use. The staff were especially friendly and helpful; responded gratiously to any request. The room had a subtle elequence to it which compensated for its smaller size;... more

We stayed in the Alex Johnson Hotel in Rapid City in August this year. The location of the hotel was central in Rapid City, but everything else about it was very basic. The decor was very tired. We had to ask to be moved from our first room (two double rooms joined by a bathroom) as there was water dripping... more

I made my reservation several weeks ahead and then made a change at last minute and the front desk took care of everything very effeciently. We even had some smokers in our group who they took care of very nicely. The rooms were ready and nicel appointed. We all enjoyed our stay and look forward to our next visit. more

It was fun to stay here even though a few areas were in need of sprucing up. They are in the process of renovation but they're doing it with due sensitivity to their history. The location is great,... more

An old friend of mine from elementary school and I took a road trip in May. We were on a reunion trip, as we had had a falling out some 30 years ago. So this was a very special trip to us.We happened to stay at the Alex Johnson on May 5th and 6th. Mary, the manager there, helped to... more

I wanted to like this hotel, it was impossible. The rooms were not clean, not pleasant, TV looked like it was out of the 70's. The service was just awful. An example, please remember they were not even 1/2 full, as we were checking out, a gentleman from another country who had to wait for a prescription to be delivered,... more

I'm surprised by all of the negative reviews because my stay was very nice. Yes, the hotel may be a little worn around the edges, but our room was perfectly fine and very clean. The bathroom was quite unique -- amazing bright red tiles and a sink marbled like strawberry cheesecake -- and spotless. The front desk staff was perfectly... more
