The staff are great people...
Liked: The accomodations are fine and the staff are helpful and kind.
Disliked: I've stayed at The Dakota a number of times recently and every single time there was issues with basic things like sinks that work. Showers that work. Faucet knobs that fall off. Lights that didn't work.

Passable
Liked: Price was decent
Disliked: Toilet seat was broken and pool was not usable for the night we were there so we had dissatisfied kids and the breakfast was okay but wish the juice wouldn't have been empty so we had to stop at a gas station for juice and potty.

Bathroom sink was gross
Liked: Breakfast was good
Disliked: Bathroom sink was plugged and I asked the front desk to please fix as gross stuff was coming back up. However nobody came to fix or even to just dump some draino down drain and plunge. Ended up washing hands and brushing teeth with bathtub faucet which was difficult with 2 people with mobility issues.

Basically its like motel 6
Liked: My bathroom toilet was not flushing. They brought in a guy to check it out but he couldn't fix it. They did offer me another room on my 2nd day of stay but I was already convinced to go home so I checked out a day early.
Disliked: Cleanliness. Vending machines out of order and bathroom facilities functional

Unpleasant at best
Liked: The staff was friendly, the ac worked, and the pool was functional at best...
Disliked: We had booked 2 rooms that we requested be close in proximity or possibly adjoining rooms. The first one was on the first floor. The second one was on the second floor with a nice jaunt between the two of them. Not ideal for family staying together. Second room had no chairs to sit on, no light other than bathroom light and a tiny nightlight lamp. It also had no wall hangings or blankets on the beds what so ever. There were massive stains on the floors and ceilings. First room was better. The ac had trouble keeping up and took a long time for the fridge to cool down at all. But at least this room had 2 chairs to sit on, a floorlamp and a wallsconce. We only got one towel though. We were lead to believe this was a nice family friendly place but seemed more like an extended stay hotel for vagrant type people. The pool was functional but the hot tub was not and the pool itself was not great although the kids somewhat enjoyed it. We ended up all cramming into one room due to no one being comfortable staying in the oddly empty room with the type of clientele staying there as well. Complaints were made to staff about the room but said there was nothing we could do except for put in a complaint through the booking service.

Perfect Pet Friendly Stay!
Liked: Happy they were dog friendly! This is why we choose this spot! We had 3 dogs, I think the pet fee was $20 each which seemed fair to us! There were lots of other dogs we saw, and we were just happy to find a decently priced place to stay with our babes!Found an amazing little place to eat and had some of the best food on our whole trip! I just can’t remember the name but it was downtown by the river!
Disliked: The outdoor area had lots of dog poop from visitors not picking up after their dogs! Be a decent human and please pick up after your dogs to keep the yards clean for other pups! There was so much
