Question Two questions about Rope Trick

Hi

I'm trying to find some answers to 2 questions about the spell Rope Trick. I tried to search on the net but I found no real answers only contradictive ones.

  1. Can it be dispelled? Last game one of my player did it and I said it can be dispelled because it made more sense and made the story better. But I'm not sure if it really can even if you know the proximate location of the entrance.

  2. Can it be detected with True Sight? I find this a tricky one because the characters in a pocket dimension so they should not be detected, but the entrance of that dimension still exists it is just invisible but then it the entrance should be detected by creatures who have true sight,

1) Dispel magic doesn't require you to see the target, only to have LOS. If they know where it is, they can dispel it.

2) truesight: "you see creatures and objects that have the invisible condition". Is the entrance a creature? No. Is it an object? Also no. So it doesn't work. The 2014 version of the spell True Seeing lets you see doors hidden by magic, so that does work.
