What an incredibly pleasant surprise. I called before we were on our way to request a fridge, microwave and coffee-maker. The manager was very friendly. We arrived later in the evening and not only was everything we requested in the room but he ran ahead of us to turn on the lights and had turned on the heat in anticipation... More

Very good motel in a very pleasant location. The manager was very helpful and cheerful. Gave us good advice on eating at night in Hot Springs and next morning instructed us on making waffles. We had a large room with cable TV and there was an oudoor pool. There was no problem with leaving our car in the motel carpark... More

I should have known at check-in, this would not end well. The broken English, the old-style credit card processing, the lack of a "quite" room as requested. Things got worse. The room had a bad sewer smell - but it was the last available room, even though we'd booked a month in advance and got to the hotel in the... More

The owner went out of his way to make sure we had exactly what we wanted. He wasn't sure which room we would want before we arrived, so he had the A/C running in both so that we could choose the one we wanted. Very friendly environment, great, clean facility and in a perfect location to explore the town.

Nice owner. When checking in the smell of curry was overwhelming. Asked for a non-smoking room which we got, however the outside smoking area was directly out side our door. The room was marginal bordering on questionable. If you have to stay here, ask for a room on the second floor or a cabin. On the first floor you hear... More

Very, very nice people who own/run the motel, but the A/c never cooled the room. We arrived during 100 F weather after a long, exhausting day only to have NO air conditioning! It was the worst stay ever! And on top of this, the food was sorry and there wasn't a decent cup of coffe to find in the whole... More

We loved staying here!! We stayed in one of their cabins, and it was a great 3 days! It was VERY clean and comfy, and the view of the beautiful downtown city was outstanding. We enjoyed walking to get espresso across the street, and walking to the bakery a block away. The pooll was a great relief on the hot... More

My kids thought this was the coolest. We loved the location, across the river from the resort hotel. Short walk to waterfall. Cabin itself was in good order. Bunk be couldn't fit an adult but great for my kids all under ten. They LOVED it. We loved that it had a nice bathroom and porch. Main bed was comfy but... More
