Honestly you get what you paid for. We had a negative experience mainly due to the fact that we were locked out of our room. When we sought assistance they were unable to help us and gave us a second room however our stuff was already inside our previous room. Also the second room was smoker friendly and had carpet which the room we had reserved did not. Thankfully my husband insisted and managed to get our room to open while I was getting our little one to bed. I immediately got him ready and we went back to our room.

The property exterior is in disrepair and is offputting. The pool is a disgusting mess. It would have been nice to have been alerted to this; especially during the heat wave. The interior of the room is clean and comfortable. Housekeeping did a wonderful job. Customer service via a phone call was excellent and accommodating. No human interaction and no one is on property if that matters to you. Parking was tight. I would not recommend based on the exterior and lack of pool.

The Room is great. But the exterior is in disrepair, middle of June, pool non operational plus the atmosphere is very sterile there and you can’t even walk into the office unless it’s breakfast hours so if you want a place to pass out this is your place. If you want to anything besides sleep then maybe consider spending more and staying closer to the center of old town

Be aware - nothing in Expedia says it during reservation process - nobody on site, phone goes to voicemail (\"you've reached us after business hours\"), ring doorbell goes nowhere. 10:10 pm. Had to pay a buck and a half for a 1.5 star down the road and no refund.

Hotel communicates AFTER YOU PAY and only through Expedia message - you must have your computer or Expedia app AND signal and check for the door code and apt number sometime before you get there. I didn't check my PC after I hit the road. Got to stay down the street for a buck and a half extra.

Figured it out when I logged into the XYZ inn and got Expedia messages going, but I already paid again at the XYZ. \"What can we do to make it right\" was communicated, I replied with \"subtract the Expedia fees and split it with me.\" No reply.

Two story, outdoor entry place, office with taped up messages with phone number to call (didn't work). If you aren't OK with stairs, I don't know how they'd assign a room. Can't say anything about the inside (unfortunately) but the XYZ was pretty gross. Definitely older 1970's vibe in the town. Most of the hotels on the block were also unmonitored.

The rooms have been remodeled and look like the pictures. They have very nice details & features, i.e. light fixture, sink, larger fridge. They have really spruced up what appeared to be an old property. It was very quiet & nice. It is right on the trolley route. The beds & pilliws were amazing and soft. I have trouble sleeping for more than 5 or 6 hours a night at home, but I slept a solid 10 hours on this overnight trip!! That alone was worth the trip. Check in is a breeze. You get a text with a link to do complete a pre check in form. Once you do that, you are sent a code & you can bypass the office, if you want.

I got a call the week before saying our penthouse room had been flooded and was no longer available. They offered a different room. Pics of the new room looked good. We arrive later than planned due to traffic. The room was fine. There was dirt on the floor but that wasnt a deal breaker. We noticed the coffee pot but there wasnt coffee or cups. There were 3 or 4 creamers and a coffee cup collar. The coffee pot and coffee station were covered in dust. You had to request maid service by hanging out the tag that has do not disturb on one side and maid service requested on the other. This we did not know. So no clean room for us on saturday. Hubs went to the office and got dry towels and thats when we found out about maid service requests. Ive never stayed in a hotel that I had to request maid service. So dirty floors were going to be for a Sunday. We put the maid service tag out sunday. They literally brought clean towels and took the wet ones. Floor was still dirty and trash was full. The cob web was still on the overhead light as was the spider egg sack was still in the corner of the ceiling. The shower curtain didnt have a liner so every time we showered the curtain got wet as did the floor. The sheet on the king bed was really small a d we found it all night. Bed were really firm. A little to firm for us. After getting annoyed by the lack of maid service, I started really looking. The place was dirty. Build up on soap dispenser.

I booked the penthouse for my 30th birthday trip. We had arrived early into town and knew check in was at three but thought we would check and see if the room was ready. The front desk woman was amazingly sweet and hospitable. It turned out we could check in about 45 mins ahead of schedule. The drive down to the pent house is steep. We found it easier to back down the diveway since the other side of the drive way that would normaly be used to leave... the gravel was a little washed out. There is a cute firepit area outside of the penthouse. Upon entering the penthouse i was stunned. It was beautifully decorated and spacious. The electric fireplaces were a nice touch too! Loved having a full sized refrigerator and a toaster oven. There was a big dining area with room for 6 people which came in handy when my girlfriends staying in

We decided to check out the area based on recommendations of family that come to Eureka Springs often. I’m super picky and usually prefer to stay at higher end hotels but I loved the look of this room and I am a sucker for places trying to bring something old back to life. My husband was surprised when we pulled up and said there was no way the place was up to my standards until we went into our room. The room was beautiful even though the beds were a little stiff for me, he loved them. Parking was a little bit of a pain the second night but nothing too crazy. Just had to park at the back of the building. Over all would recommend this motel to anyone.

The executive suite is really a small, well-appointed apartment with a full kitchen, living room, fireplaces in both the living room and bedroom. Modern decor offset by a cute retro full-sized refrigerator and microwave. The outdoor seating area is quiet and peaceful on the edge of the woods. We were visited by several deer and an armadillo while relaxing with a cocktail by the fire pit. A great contrast to the bustle of the historic downtown area just a couple miles away. Best of both worlds!
