The Dakota

My stay was alright, i would say it's reasonable value for money and not bad especially on short notice. Parking is plentiful and free, as it's on the property (though a bit tight if you have a wider/longer car like an SUV or estate). There's a chinese takeaway next door I was in room 1, which was in a decent condition, looked reasonably clean and tidy except for a panel being off of the wall where there was electrics/piping visible. The only real nside was an awful smell coming from the drains in the bathroom. I genuinely felt sick when i first smelt it upon walking in. Leaving the bathroom window wide open did help to lessen the smell but it didn't go away. This must be addressed in my opinion, especially as I've read other reviews complaining about it too. The only other negative was that the room was absolutely freezing most of the night until around 3am, when the heating came on, which then felt blisteringly hot. There's no way to turn heating up or down so you will simply have to put up with it. Not the end of the world but it did significantly reduce my quality of sleep. Bar those issues, Joy was very friendly and helpful, the process of getting door and lockbox codes was pretty straightforward. Overall i would give the Dakota a 3/5 stars, although there are some issues that need sorting before i would personally think of returning. I'd also like to add that i appreciate the speed at which the room was made ready as I booked it at very short notice. Thank you!

Excellent

Amazing as always

Great location for me Room lovely and clean with all amenities you could need Excellent communication Free parking with plenty of space Wi-Fi for free Very close to a takeaway in case you get hungry Self check in but a number was given to contact owners if any issues. Only downside , radiator which was working well stopped in the night and i woke up cold, however there was a spare blanket in the wardrobe.

Room was clean and bed comfortable, quite a small room but good for what we needed for 1 night, easy parking and a quiet night, kettle with tea bags etc, easy entry to building and room. Only 1 negative was that there was mould on ceiling in bathroom so obviously poor ventilation, I opened window in bathroom while showering and that helped but obviously over time it hasn’t been well ventilated. Would definitely stay again when that way.

Nice room, warm, comfortable, quiet. Cleanliness a little bit of an issue. No hair dryer in the room as specified in amenities, but this was remedied in the morning, for which thanks. Plenty of parking and useful Chinese takeaway next door.

Clean, convenient, warm. Would use again

Clean room and easy access to apartments. Large parking spaces

Lovely property and bedroom very modern and warm. Very quiet too. The cleanliness of the room unfortunately wasn't good. Carpet needed hoovering. Toilet seat not clean. The bin in the bathroom had someone elses sanitary deposits. The shower grate was filthy and rinsed the shower before i went in. Such a shame as a great price for the room, but feel a deep clean of the room is needed.

i never even saw the room. This was my second bad experience with Hotels.com in the SAME day after years of using the service with rarely a negative experience. It makes me really question whether I will use it again. In this case, the hotel was not a hotel at all but an airbnb equivalent. There was no front desk and nobody to speak to at the property. The entry was locked so we couldn't get in the front door. I do occasionally stay in AirBnBs on my own but never with my family. Found a hotel through a different app and had a good night. Did not bother trying to talk about a refund since I expected the result would be I would be pointed to the no refund policy. I don't like buying things blind, especially if I can't be confident on what I am receiving.

Rooms clean, never see anyone, you get a message to let you k ow the codes to get in and for the key safe. Stayed he a couple of times now.

Excellent room always enjoy our stay thank you

Clean room, good amenities

The hair dryer is missing . And the radiator is not working. We message the host around 11pm. We appreciate that it’s a bit late in the night but no response until we check out. Also there is dust on the wall, not as clean as other guests commented However the bed is quite comfortable.

The bathroom was shocking mould around the shower tray. Shower head absolutely filthy toilet seat broken and it stunk of drainage!!

Hotel is located on a quiet street in a small village just outside Coventry airport and the outer ring road. Chinese takeaway next door and convenience store across the street (although check opening hours; it was shut when I arrived about 5pm). Also a pub about 5-10 min walk down the road. Plenty of parking at the rear and access codes to the front door and your room are sent shortly before arrival. Room had all usual amenities - storage, telly, kettle with plenty of tea and biscuits, shampoo/body wash/hand cream in the bathroom. Extras of essential items were available in the main entrance, along with a vending machine for snacks and drinks. WiFi worked well, bed was very comfy, room was a good temperature, and although some noise was audible from other rooms, people were very considerate about trying to be quiet. Shower was a bit cosy, particularly for anyone over 5'10". Room was generally clean but had a few stains on the carpet and hard water marks on all the bathroom sanitary ware. Still very good value for money, though, and would definitely stay again.

Nice easy and convenient stay for Stonleigh Park exhibition.

Quiet. Very clean. Self service. Spacious rooms. Located in small & safe village. Local pub is great fun! Downside: Heavy on the air freshener.

Room was clean just the bathroom smelt. Didn’t see anyone the whole time we stayed there. Parking was good, didn’t use the Wifi

Cheap and chearful
