Old motel but clean and friendly staff

Staff was grest but first 5hey checked us into an already occupied room. New room light bulbs we burned ol, but clean and friendly staffut and toilet was plugged 🔌 and wouldn't flush. She would give us a new room if we wamted to, but she got the toilet to flush very slowly and we didn't want to move every, too late at night

8/10 Very good

Good enough for a night of rest

Easy to find, friendly staff. Pool was down for repairs. Not the best parking options and questionable people loitering in the parking area.

Got more motel 8 vibes from the place.

Pool and hot tub were closed. Was unaware. Stain on towel in bathroom.

Place was clean and convenient to the airport. Pool was closed for an undetermined amount of time, which was a bummer, my daughter was looking forward to it.

Pool out

Disappointing that the hit tub and pool were out of commission and had been for a while yet The Dakota nor Hotels.com gave any notice.

2/10 Poor

Gross

Super gross room. Was told we were being moved rooms. Had concert tickets so just dropped our bags after we checked in and headed out the door. When we came back at midnight we discovered this is what the room looked like and there was no one at the front desk. Super disappointed. Have emailed the hotel with no response back

Great stay, w we would really appreciate some CORE or ESSENTIA bottled water for Couples!!
Patrick L, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible

The pool was closed, we left a stuffed animal that had extreme sentimental value and we did not get it back
Amanda, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

From a cleanliness and staff standpoint the standards were low. The buildings worn down. The ice machine had mold and the pool was out of service. I would not recommend this hotel.
Hondi, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Decent for price

Check in was slow- but that’s because there was a new person training. Hallways were very humid. Walked into the room and looked really nice. Room was cool temp. Only complaint was that the shower walls were obviously not wiped down recently.
Jessica, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean although aged. Good front desk help. Good coffee. Slept well. Good bed. (Comfortable) good rates! Good value for the money. Definitely a budget hotel. (Clientele) Would likely stay again.

8/10 Very good

Courtyard was nice.
Kathryn F, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

Good value, but the pool was broken, AC was extremely loud, beds were nice, bathroom was very dated, cleanliness was above average, breakfast was average or below, there was very loud and disruptive tenants in a nearby room, and halls smelled of marijuana. Cleaning staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Melissa, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Cute but Awful

First room we were given had been flooded, the carpet was squishy and the whole room smelled of mold. The carpet was sticky in the second room. The pool/waterpark was closed for maintenance. There were random children just hanging out riding bikes/scooters throughout the hotel.

The pool area & hot tub plus slide great. Furniture old,worn. Continental breakfast good. Exactly what you expect.

Beautiful place to stay and affordable Will definitely keep this one saved for another visit
John, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Wont book here again

First room I got the door did not lock. Second room I got had not been remodeled. The hotel had buckets in the hallway to catch water from the leaking ceiling. The bed and pillows were rock hard. Whole hotel felt like a landlord special. Slapped on some cheap paint and vinyl floors and then think they can overcharge. The whole place just felt dirty and dingy.

Room was quiet - no noise from adjacent rooms.
P., 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Check in was quick and easy, however our room was not that great. The floor felt as if it was soaked and just left sticky, there was heavy mildew smell in the bathroom, and the window was absolutely filthy. The morning we had checked out we had found a yogurt container in their breakfast area that had mold on it.
