My daughter gets nervous when we are away from home, but she felt totally comfortable and safe in our room, which in turn makes my stay more enjoyable. The room was very clean and cozy.and the staff made us feel welcome.

It was the perfect place to stay to walk my dog in the Hot Springs National Park and Bathhouse Row. Both places were close.

Cozy hotel with retro vibe. Unbeatable location within 0.3 miles of downtown, with trails that start right out the front door. Very friendly staff. If you value large luxurious bathrooms, this is not your pick. If you value location and immersion into the atmosphere of historic Hot Springs, this is the way to go.

It's a typical motel-style hotel. We enjoyed our stay and the staff was really lovely for check in. The location can't be beat. It's a two minute walk down the hill to get to Bathhouse Row, shopping and restaurants, and there's a cold water drinking spring right next door. We would absolutely stay again.
