West Boulevard is Rapid City's most historic and architecturally eclectic neighborhood. Clean, quiet, safe, convenient, and comfortable...all the things you're looking for! You’ll be walking distance from downtown, and a short drive to all the Black Hills has to offer. I am born and raised in the Black Hills so I know all the good spots to eat, hike, bike, or whatever you're after here on your vacation.

Great Location, Highly Recommended, Good communication with owner. Used as base for exploring Black Hills area. Also I could walk to the many restaurants and bars in downtown. Would stay again.
We had a wonderful time in Rapid City.
We stayed in a very comfortable apartment in an excellent area The location was a good starting point to visit all that the Black Hills has to offer.
Great location in Rapid City driving distance to all of the sights, e.g. Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Badlands, Wall Drug, Devil's Tower, WY. Plus the convenience of everything available in Rapid City.
Stayed here for 5 days. Everything about the apartment was excellent. It is perfectly situated to use as home base while exploring all the South Dakota attractions, Mt Rushmore, Deadwood, Crazy Horse...
Joe is a good landlord, easy to deal with.
It was a good vacation in a nice little apartment.
In addition to being a very clean apartment, it was in walking distance to so many fun places. We enjoyed the walk to Main Street and all the cool brew pubs and retail stores. Never got to use the kitchen because we took advantage of the local restaurants! Highly recommend the walk up to Dinosaur Park to get a 360 view of Rapid City. BEST VIEW!!! Linens were plush and bed was very comfortable. Would stay here again.
Beautiful with all the comforts of home. Quiet neighborhood
After surgery, I spent the night in the amazing recliner while my husband slept peacefully in the bed. I liked your fluffy towels, and yummy coffee. Thanks for sharing. Definitely a place to relax and enjoy the city, too.
My daughter and I stayed here on the first night of a two-week long trip. The bed wasn’t at all comfortable, but no worse than most hotel beds. Honestly, that’s the only complaint we had. It was cute and clean.
We stayed for 4 nights and were there to see all the parks in the area. Great location and the host was so easy to work with. Would recommend
