Love the contactless check in/out and never having to see anyone but if you do have an issue they will respond to messages on the app. The snacks and drinks were unexpected but much appreciated. Thats something that made them stand out from other hotels to me. I would absolutely stay there again and highly recommend. I did have issues with the tub not draining water and the vent in bathroom needed cleaned but otherwise top notch!

Hotel is conveniently located in downtown Hot Springs, only a mile or so from the National Park. The rooms are in great condition & newly renovated. The price was reasonable & includes free parking & wifi. They offer a SmartTV with streaming apps. There's no staff on-site, but the gate access & self check-in were very easy.

Easy self check in. Fence inclosed parking lot for security. Room was comfortable, clean, and visually pleasing. Would definitely stay again! Room could use a cozy chair and the bathroom has no light over the vanity so it was very hard to see well enough to put on make up. Room had a nice little kitchenette but no pots, dishes, or silverware so we were unable to make use of the area.
