Our boys loved going in the pool and the design of the pool instantly made our youngest feel safe and excited to swim especially since he is 6 and afraid of water if he cant touch the floor. He was instantly a little fish and was having the time of his life. And his brother loved the deeper end of the pool. We all loved the hot tub too for a nice way to end our swimming and relaxing for a few mins. It was wonderful!!

We ordered pizza late and we were told the front door would be locked after 10pm fod safety and we loved that! Just kind of made it a little bit more of a search for the delivery guy to find us in the back of the building but it was no biggy!!! It was a wonderful stay we will be back!

My kids loved the pool & of course, the waterslide. We were able to check in early, the room was clean & comfortable. It was a hot day & our room was already cooled off! Staff was friendly & helpful. Continental breakfast had quite the selections. Would definitely stay again.

The noise in the early morning; since I am not an early riser; they were redoing the flooring down the hallway. I can't really fault them for trying to improve the look of the place.

The location was handy for getting to where we needed to be and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I personally liked the beds because I prefer a firmer mattress, and breakfast is better than having nothing.

The rooms are definitely in need of some updates and fixes. Our toilet seat was loose, the door would not shut all the way unless we tried to really force it, and the hallways leading to the rooms you have to be careful; If anyone was in the pool and walking through the laminate floored hallways you had a slip possibility on your hands due to the water left behind by them.

location for breakfast was good but offering oatmeal but no water to mix it wasn't good. supplies of items were plentiful. power outage was not good when on 2nd floor with a child on medical equipment but it does work when not connected for a few hours. battery lanterns or flashlights would have been useful.

having trash picked up but not having to place it outside of the room

I felt very comfortable, it felt homey. Facilities were awesome: pool, whirlpool, and courtyard. Staff were friendly.

I wish the workout room would have had regular dumbbells. Love the idea of boxing bag but it was too light to be of any use. The elliptical wasn't functional. So loved al it did have! The slide in pool was not functional, that was a bummer for my teens. The activities rack was bare. I love using that to plan activities and future trips. Rooms were clean, but across building it was just a little unkept.

They had an amazing pool nicely heated spent alot of time in there. Very friendly staff. Check in and check out was fast and simple. Loved the location just off i-29.

Wish there were more breadfast options. And they had garbage lying around in the halls. Be nice to see them cleaner

We were in Sioux Falls for the Howard-Wood track meet. The Dakota is located close to the stadium and several eating places. We enjoy the pleasant and efficient staff. The beds are comfortable. The breakfast is good. We haven't used the pool but it looks like a nice size and people are enjoying it. It's a very comfortable stay.

The rooms could use more lighting. I wish they had coffeemakers in the rooms.

Location, value and the breakfast was what was expected. The staff was super friendly and helpful.

Parking lot was not cleaned up from snow. Didn’t look as though it was plowed compared to other locations around the same area. Water pressure in the shower was very low Hard to get hot water.

This hotel was so amazing. The value, cleanliness, and the staff was so excellent. The pool was clean and huge. They have an amazing water slide.

The free breakfast was good but normal grab and go. They do not have coffee in room.

These are real folks, the staff were warm and friendly and I immediately felt welcome and relaxed. My room was very clean, bedding was comfortable. A nice easy chair and a desk. I look forward to staying there again in the future.
