Man was nice at check in. Room was acceptable, but not clean. TV and phone did not work, but was promptly fixed. Coffee pot was nasty. Coffee was terrible and didn’t fit the machine. Two of the three coffee bags were broken when i opened the pack. I did ask for 8 coffees for the next day, which is a lot. I was going to use two for each cup. The woman I asked was rather rude, but it was an uncommon request. She directed me to the housekeeper who was extremely nice. The next morning about 10 a man shook the door handle, the door must have not been locked because it opened. He asked if I was leaving or wanted to stay another night. He just opened the door! I carry a gun when I travel. NEVER EVER should someone bust into your room.

This was the second-worst motel I have ever stayed in. The clothes rack fell off the wall in the middle of the night, the shower head was only 4 feet high, the bathroom mirror was hung 6 inches too low, the A/C was noisy. I reserved a non-smoking room; my room was a smokers room.This motel needs to be razed, and something useful built on the land.

Not For the Squeamish

I stayed in the Honeymoon room with the jacuzzi and was shocked to see an assortment of dead, dried up bugs all about the floor as if floor hadn't been cleaned in months. In the heart tub, live bugs that looked like they were ticks! Linens, toilet and countertops were clean but just a bunch of dead (and alive) bugs! Dead bugs were not like infestation bugs (not roaches, ants or bed bugs) but like outside bugs who made their way in, died and never got swept up. The ticky crawly things in the hot tub were the grossest. Also jacuzzi did not \"jacuzzi\" it just filled with water, no jacuzzi bubble feature. Not a very good value at all for $143 on a Weds. Just manage your expectations.

Worst experience, please read

This was a terrible mistake. We relied on the feedback and Hotels.com reviews and rating to make a last minute decision to stay there. We picked a non smoking room because my dad suffers from
Asma.. immediately when you walk into the door, the overwhelming smell of smoke hits you- the office couldn’t do anything since they apparently don’t enforce their policy. The room itself if horrible, patched walls, mold in the bathtub, bed not comfortable. And if you don’t like people cooking outside of their door room on a portable bbq grill, don’t stay there.

Very run down and nothing like the pictures. Where to start?!? The bathroom - cigarette burns on the edge of the tub next to the toilet that was turned a bit to the tub. Cracks in the back of the tub. Shower curtain rounded rod bent downwards and ends repaired with wood screws. Hand hold on the inside wall broken off. Small bugs go crazy when light comes on. Not roach, but a same beetle looking thing. Threshold between vanity and room was broken. That half inch raise got my feet three times.
Rest of the room - Smallest micro wave ever. Frig had a filthy shelf. Bed had a sheet metal base and made metallic noise with slightest movement.
Outside - Deck chairs outside rooms for no apparent reason except to help smokers. Neighbor must have been a chair smoker because it kept coming in through the AC all the time I was there. Finally, there was old tall TV cabinets stored outside in the parking lot in various states of repair. Seriously, I took pics of all this.
This review comes from my first visit to the University of Arkansas and it was Family Weekend for the Freshman as well. If visiting this area and this is still available on any hotel site, by pass! Orbitz should drop this one!

non smokers beware

Basic room and close to activities (nice feature) but the room smelled like an ashtray--I brought an air purifier because all that was available was a smoking room, but it didn't help much. Long-term renters had kids playing outside the rooms at 7 am and had visitors parking in the spots outside the rooms, so I had to park further away. I would only stay here if nowhere else was available--which sometimes is the case on game weekends.
