Excellent location, super clean and comfortable amenities. Excellent water pressure, soft pillows. A very unexpected experience for such an affordable price
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!
Pool was out of order when I stayed 6/26-27/26. It looked like they were doing a series of rennovations. Wifi was very weak and my devices never connected during my stay. Toilet in room ran continuously. The room itself was pretty good for what I paid...looked updated and in pretty good condition.
The staff here are trying their best to keep up with things. The small town not having enough workforce to be able to fully staff a team of housekeepers is known, and the ones that are here are putting in work to try and keep things running.
It was very sketch. Walked into the shabby lobby to an over whelming smell of pot. Got a key, went to the room. Red for the door. Didn’t work. Went back, got a new room, was told I may have troubles. It was green but I had to give the door quite a push. Window was open, no screen. Garbage was left in the cupboard, no towels. In the elevator a gentleman told me he was locked out of his room and slept in his car! Next day went to check out breakfast. That was fun. Coffee looked like tea, guy made a new pot but no cream to be found. 2 slices of white bread and 2 pop tarts, some questionable looking Cheerios . I felt like we were on a bad survivor show! lol
Good point: bed was clean and smelled fresh. It was comfortable. Shower was decent.
Room was recently updated.
Breakfast was okay. Selection could be better. Price was good and we'll stay again. Front desk staff was great!

Rooms was newly remodeled.Bed was comfortable, pillows were very soft. Sink, toilet and shower were not wiped down. Told the receptionist. We went out and when we came back it was taken care of. Very little breakfast but for a room under $60 I'm surprised they offer anything. A coffee maker in the room would've been nice. Staff was nice and helpful. If u r looking for a cheap place just to sleep this works fine.
Staff were super nice at check In . Hotel was nice and clean, good lighting around the building as well. The breakfast was pretty good.All around a nice stay.
Yes mall was cl I se and restaurant in walking distance

Hallways had a bad smell, pool and hot tub were closed, breakfast was carbs only. However, the room itself was nicely updated and relatively clean. The price reflects the quality of the stay.

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!
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.
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.
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.
