I originally booked this hotel thinking that it would have a shuttle to the airport considering it is literally in the name. Unfortunately, there is no shuttle, but the driver recommended by the front desk lady was very professional and prompt. My room smelled like stale cigarette smoke and the locks on the door were sketchy at best. The carpet is old and everywhere- makes it really hard to roll heavy luggage. The only true upside was the price. Oh- also the sheets were clean and crisp with lots of soft pillows!

Acceptable for price

Odd not having auto doors at entrance. The decor is outdated and a little worn. BUT, it was clean and everyone was very friendly. The hall floors creaked in the hallways but we never heard anyone over us. I’m very picky about hotel stays and choose this one for the stars. At first I expected more. However, I didn’t see anything dirty. It’s just not the level of hotel I’m accustomed to..but, the price was lower. I guess it comes down to…would I stay here again? Yes I would. Not if I had to pay more but definitely at the price we paid.

The Bakken is a very clean comfortable stay and a great value for the money / room etc. I’m always very satisfied every time I stay here. Hampton inn quality meets value pricing.

I would stay here again. Jessica at the front desk was super helpful and very kind. Breakfast options were great. The room smelled fresh and clean and was clean. Everything was perfect. It suited my needs for my late night. Check in in early check out.

Great property. Very clean. Great for workers. They have a boot room the size of a varsity locker room with large industrial sinks and lockers. For muddy clothes and boots to be cleaned and/or stored in.
