    "I had a great stay at the Bakken! Very friendly, helpful people at reception. My room was spacious and clean with plenty of room to relax, work, and sleep. I appreciated the in-room fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. I didn’t visit the bar/restaurant but there were people there every night. Free parking lot was nice, sadly there was some trash left out there. Not a big deal or the fault of the hotel."
