Beware this motel has a history of bed bugs! I did not know it, and I ended up with over 187 bed bug bites while staying in room 13 on August 24 and 25, 2010.... The motel knows of the problem because it has plastic covers for the mattresses, but they have not corrected the bed bug problem! My trip... More

I went back to this hotel because the staff is very nice and helpfull, the rooms are clean and spacious. however, the breakfast is not included, it's a pity. the hotel is not so far from the city center. Very affordable (except during Sturgis Rallye). I am very glad of my stay.

Nothing Fancy, but very clean, comfortable beds, quiet area. There is nothing wrong with this motel. The staff and owner treat you like they are old friends. I am a 65 year old retired Sheriff, and found this place to be just what I needed for a comfortable place to stay.

My brother & I spent the night at the Avanti when our car broke down while traveling through town, after having it recommended to us by a local mechanic. The two older gentlemen who we saw working were both very kind & friendly, and the room was clean & comfortable, although obviously older. The room contained a fridge, microwave, cable... More

I stayed at the Avanti earlier this month while on a road trip with my dad. We booked this motel for a night because it was affordable (especially considering how expensive Rapid City is), Lonely Planet recommended it, and there were decent reviews on here (although they were old). BIG MISTAKE. While the stay started okay (the guy who checked... More

I, along with my wife and friends, have stayed at the Avanti for numerous events since 1999. Jerry, one of the last truely honest and sincere motel owners, along with his staff, are EXCELLENT!! While this is not a 4-Star luxury hotel, it is always clean and quiet. On the two occasions where we did have an issue, the Staff... More

This place was terrific. The building was old, but the room was nice and the bathroom was brand new. Our room had a refrigerator and a microwave as well. There was cable and wifi, although I had trouble connecting to the network. It's down the block from a nice park with a pond and walking paths, a few blocks from... More
