Lazy U Motel

New Owner, New Manger going to be some what the place just a newer look, on site manger and house keeper. rooms are now floor, beds and box springs are new. rooms are clean and safe. wifi, fridge and microwave, cable, ice machine, guest laundry,

So the first time I stayed I was put in a very clean room and felt safe. This was my second stay and theanager apparently quit and left. I got a not so clean room, fridge was old and had broken parts, and the carpet was super nasty. I saw people going to a room for 5 minutes and leaving. There were 5 broke down vehicles in the lot. I do not think I will be staying there again!!

Great motel and owner - Troy. I picked the Lazy U based on reviews and it didn’t disappoint. The mattresses are brand new! Clean rooms, microwave, fridge and the cable works. Stayed 1 night on trip and checked back in on trip home. The owner Troy went the extra mile to make sure both stays were great!! Thank you Joel from Colorado

The property manager was awesome! I think he need to become a Standup Comedian.

We have been staying at this hotel for years when it was under Cindy and Verlyn's watch. It was a wonderful experience then, as they were very conscientious and kept the rooms clean. There was always coffee and rolls available at the desk and they were almost always available if you needed them. Not anymore! First off, the desk is closed, and you have to call if you need to check in or out or need him for anything. Secondly, when we checked in, the room still had food in the fridge and there was trash on the floor under the table. The last straw was not getting our $200 deposit refunded until I called two weeks later to let them know it wasn't on my bank statement. He took care of it right away and apologized, but after everything else, we'll never stay there again. It's too bad, as it was a nice place to stay and a great price.

Location on Mt. Rushmore Rd. (US 16) is convenient to many useful businesses like Perkins, Safeway, MacDonald's, Walgreens, and numerous gas stations. The street itself is very noisy and quite busy, though the room itself is remarkably shielded from the noise. All the handles in the bathroom are marginal in some way, including the door and we almost felt like we could lock ourselves into the bathroom if we shut the door all the way. However, we could make everything work. There is no coffee-maker, but the microwave works well if you have something in which to heat water. Refrigerator works well. Many people who patronize the motel seem to be smokers, so there are little buckets and a chair outside the rooms for people to smoke and extinguish the butts. Depending on the luck of the draw, you can get smoke smell in the room if you have the window open. Probably best to keep the window closed and use the AC/heater, which worked well and was blessedly quiet. TV is small but has good range of channels, located a long ways from the chairs you would sit in to watch. TV sits on top of a useful chest of drawers. Parking is well-organized if tight to get in and out. This is an urban motel and fits into the space available in this part of Rapid City. You have to call for check-in, etc., but this worked fine. Somewhat disappointed that towels were partially replenished and trash emptied one day but not the next. All in all, recommended at the price.
