Clean comfortable room, friendly staff, very good hot breakfast.
The staff Jose and Rhonda? (The morning lady) were 110% fantastic. The breakfast although a little early was also fantastic. Very quiet. Laundry. We also recommended it to someone we met on the road.
Really clean room w nice amenties , though the room is slightly smaller. This is oerfect pit stop since it is right off freeway and close to 2 gas stations. Staff were nice and friendly. Killdeer is a small town and we visited on july 4th and it offered breakfast when all restaurants closed for the cslsbration.

Perfect stay
Good, clean, safe, and comfortable stay. The breakfast was perfect. The bathroom facet leaked, we did advise front desk before we checked out.
The Hotel Dakota was a convenient location for an overnight on a recent business trip. The staff are friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable with nice linens and room was clean and had adequate space. The lobby and breakfast areas were also clean and welcoming. We will definitely stay at the Hotel Dakota again if we are in the area.
Early breakfast is always a good plus and they make cookies in the evening

Check in woman friendly but knew very little about area. Subsequent staff was friendly, interested in feedback and knowledgeable of area. Facilities/breakfast standard and adequate, but room was very small with noisy AC and mini fridge. Most guests were oil workers with early start times. Not bad if you want a 7 a.m. start of the day, but not if you want to sleep in a bit. Located pretty far from "downtown"... not really walk-able. The Buckskin restaurant, however, was very recommendable.... very good food, very friendly workers and the highlight of Killdeer for us.
E we got in at 11:00 pm. The gentleman at the desk was very pleasant and helpful. We were even greeted with fresh cookies. Hot breakfast in the morning was very good.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff are friendly, attentive and helpful. Attention to detail ( remotes missing, and then was given wrong remote, tub plug missing but room clean and comfortable
Friendly staff who is kind and helpful! The biggest drawback of this hotel is that you can hear noise from the hallways and the room above you. The staff works hard to keep it clean, so that isn’t the issue.
Overall, a great experience.
Disclaimer is we had top floor room.
Had it been a lower floor, the experience would have been horrid.
Hard floors, cowboys with boots.
Do the math.
If you love quality, do not go to Garcia’s.
Convince store coffeee tastes better, costs significantly less $.
Great breakfast.
