If you need a basic motel with no frills this is it. Limited continental breakfast options, we ended up going out to eat. Average customer service. Old rooms need upgrading, still have metal keys. Just a place to sleep not spend extended time.

I wish I had read more reviews before booking at Dakota Inn. The price was the cheapest in town last minute on President's Day weekend - 80$/night. The place looks like a prison cell - white cinderblock walls, thin carpet over hardfloor (cut away under the beds so bare subfloor completely shows), claustrophobic bathroom with sink beside the bed.

The place is older but it is cleanand has a bar has friendly but expensive and swimming area is cozy. The only thing I see is their continual breakfast is somewhat desire! The beds are newer than grand internal!

Hard to know where to start. The carpet had dirt and dust piled up around the edges, and generally grubby and twenty years old. Windows ancient and my room faced the highway. Dirty room Bed was odd, and sheets very worn and thin. I considered changing hotels but was to tired and worn out from the day to go through... More

Whenever we go to Minot we have always stayed at the Dakota Inn. We checked in which was effiecient, but we were to pay for the room before. Unusual. We got to the room and everything seemed ok, but use the bathroom. The toilet paper was thinner then paper. I am sure the newspaper would have served to be softer... More

WORST place we have ever stayed! We got stuck staying at the Dakota Inn because everything else in town was full. The cement walls made the room feel like a prison cell and everything in it was at least 25 years old. Our 2nd night there we opened our hotel room to find that they gave our room away to... More
