The room was very clean, the staff was extremely helpful. The common areas of the hotel were a little older and I got the feeling on the list for an update - as the rooms were updated with new flooring and bedding/ paint. Better than expected for cost of the rooms.

We almost didn't find the property, as it has recently had a name change and the sineage hasn't been updated in Expedia. The property owners are doing a very good job in making improvements to the property, and the breakfast room was large and well-appointed. The property's location to lots of shopping and eating opportunities was a great "plus". We enjoyed our stay, and would probaby come back, if we're passing through again.

The hotel is very dated but the rooms have been updated. The only downfall of the room was the lack of coffee machine and the bathtub had a terrible stain where something had been ripped off the bottom. Both the evening clerk at the front desk and the morning clerk were very helpful.

Not the best looking hotel from the outside. The room I was in was amazing. Very clean I’d recommend. Don’t judge a book (hotel) by its cover (the outside). The staff in every shift was friendly and professional. Thank you all!

The staff was helpful but I didn't appreciate that this is listed as a boutique hotel and the name of the location is the Dakota Inn. I found this confusing. I've also stayed at boutique hotels previously and don't consider this one. Very convenient for eating at the Homesteaders which was delicious and reasonably priced with large portions.

The room was clean but the shower only had scolding hot water. I couldn’t get it to cool down so we had to take a shower that was extremely hot. Also the breakfast barely had anything. I was able to snag a few poptarts for my kids but that’s it.

One of the most disgusting hotels I’ve ever been in. Rooms were dirty, entire place smells bad, I didn’t dare eat anything offered with their breakfast. Place needs a major overhaul. The room looked nothing like the advertisement. Even the name was wrong, the sign says Dakota inn.

Room had leaking water in the bathroom with black mold growing and dripping from the ceiling. Despite no one showering in the bathroom, the shower and bathroom walls had so much condensation… Staff not able to help at check out due to needing a manager. Breakfast is bare minimum of waffle iron, bagel, toast, cereal, milk.

Staff was largely absent. Our room had AC, but did not keep the room cool. Continental breakfast was subpar. Room was not clean on arrival. Ice machine on our floor did not work. Hallways were littered and smelled of smoke.

Started off ok the receptionist was friendly and very nice for how busy she was. But then it went down hill. We got to the room and the door was open and unlocked we suspected due to them cleaning as the cart was down the hall. Room smelt very musty when we walked in. The bathroom had mold on the walls and hair still in the tub. Tv was on the wall with a shoe string and the blankets had staining. Do not recommend unless absolutely desperate.

There was no sink in the bathroom. there was one in the bedroom but it stuck out almost to the bed so you had to stand along the side to wash your hands and face. There was no working alarm and the phone did not work. The remote for the TV was very hard to use. The beds were comfortable and the best part of the room. The breakfast was a total Joke! It was basically a make your own waffle with no other choices. There was only enough batter for a half waffle and when we complained the staff found enough so we could make a whole one. There was just over one cup of coffee and the staff added water to brew more but did not have any coffee grounds so they just ran it through the previously used grounds so that turned out as lightly colored water. Terrible. I would never stay there again!
