Clean room and great staff. Was offered free upgraded room and free breakfast vouchers. Only downside was there must have been some construction. It seemed very loud in our room, even at 10:30pm we could hear people hammering. But overall always a great getaway.

Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to The Dakotas due to COVID-19?

What are some of the general tips for travellers to The Dakotas during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered substantial changes to how we travel. If you're planning a trip to The Dakotas, these tips will help you navigate these new rules and challenges:
  • Before booking anything, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing government and airport websites.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to briefly lower it to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it straight on the scanner yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. This will need to be removed for screening.
  • Put any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Food items often set off the alarm. Placing them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
