Top Dakota Hotel Reviews

AmericInn by Wyndham Monroe

10/10 Excellent

"Good place"

Hampton Inn Freeport

8/10 Good

"The parking was challenging considering there are two areas. The one in the back is downhill and the one across the street you need to go to the corner of the street. The room was not ready at check in time. Ice machine on our floor was out of service. A nice room, comfortable. Breakfast was good as usual."

MJ's Penthouse ,a piece of paradise on Monroe's historic square

10/10 Excellent

"The penthouse is more incredible than the pictures show. We loved all of the special touches - murals, cows, old school video game machine, hanging chairs. We had plenty of shampoo, soap, tp, towels, coffee. I loved hearing the clock tower from the courthouse. I've never been on The Square after businesses are closed; we really enjoyed the quiet ambience. There is not a door to the bedroom, so privacy may be a factor if you are sharing the rental with friends/family. Similarly, the beautiful high ceilings do project sound from the front room to the bedroom. The air conditioning and ceiling fans worked great. We have and will continue recommending friends and family stay here. After dark, check out the blue bench down in front of the building. It is a tribute to my friend's father, and the light shines through, illuminating the tools onto the ground. Thank for such a wonderful stay!"

Whispering Woods Estate - Relax, recharge, connect

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent time staying here! The house was so well-stocked with everything you really need! The back deck was a calm retreat to have coffee and read and chat with family members. Even when the power went out (because of a massive storm), the owners went the extra mile and used their RV to power the house so we could still have water and A/C for the last night we were there….we were SO grateful! We would absolutely stay here again. :)"

Beautiful two story, downtown home, one block from the Square,

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect with this rental. Great communication and accommodations from the hosts. Great location only a block away from the square and within walking distance from local landmarks, parks, restaurants, and entertainment. Newly renovated property, clean, cozy, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy the rental. Would highly recommend and will book again."
