Good. Would stay again.

Codes received 2 hours before check in time. Chinese next door was delicious. Parking was quite tight to get to at the back of the property. Would stay again...

Really liked the Dakota. Felt safe as a single traveller. Room was very clean and although small (single), was perfectly adequate with tea and coffee making facilities. Accommodation is self check in so I didn't see any staff during my stay, but communication was good pre arrival. Shower wasn't warm enough to shower under unfortunately, but I would still book again as it was good value. There is a Chinese takeaway next door (cash only) and the Dakota provided plates and cutlery in reception which was a nice touch. The supermarket opposite is permenently closed.

Okay for a couple of nights. Convenient location, quiet & warm with off-street parking. Could have a bit more attention to cleaning and also some blackout curtains to shut out exterior lighting. But, overall, decent enough for the price.

Would benefit from dusting and a deep clean!

Initially the property looked very nice. It was quiet as I expected considering the time of year. The room was smaller than expected but there was enough space for us as a family. The room appeared clean but the bathroom was hugely disappointing, with the horrible damp smell and mould all over the shower. My wife couldn’t stand it so bought bleach and cleaning stuff and thoroughly cleaned the shower, which actually had flies coming out of the drain plug. We used an entire bottle of bleach to clean it. Upon closer inspection, all surfaces in the room were covered in a layer of dust too. Overall it was quite disappointing as the property looks really nice, but a lot more attention is required on the cleanliness of it, especially the shower if our room was anything to go by.

We stayed here last year nice place. The walls are thin could hear next door snoring and his phone woke me at 7.30 not liking his ringtone of sweet child of mine at that time in a morning. You get a code to get in and key lock box. So you dont see anyone.
