Across many recent reviews of The Dakota, guests describe a budget stay with mixed experiences: some found clean, comfortable rooms and friendly staff, while many reported dated spaces, persistent maintenance issues, and frequent pool and hot tub closures.
Cleanliness is inconsistent, with repeated mentions of damp or musty odors, overdue housekeeping, and mold, contrasted by a minority noting tidy rooms. Service feedback ranges from welcoming, helpful staff to slow or disorganized check-ins and limited desk coverage late at night. Breakfast is usually basic cold items, and the location works well for highway access and the airport. Expect a low-cost, no-frills stay with significant trade-offs.

AI-generated summary based on recent guest reviews
The pool and hot tub are frequently closed or under repair, and when open the area can be hot, humid, or short on towels; the slide is sometimes a highlight. Several facility issues recur, including broken vending/ice machines, worn common areas, and exterior/security door concerns.

Convenient for drivers and airport access, and a short drive to downtown. Some guests felt the surrounding area and on-site activity were sketchy or noisy.
