We have a very pleasant stay at the Dakota Hotel. Very friendly staff, lovely and clean, very welcoming, cosy communal areas. Reception staff were very helpful, however, special mention to Nieve, who was kind enough to help me a couple of times. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again.
