Lowest, worst, dirtiest, most run down hotel possible. Shockingly decrepit. Reallllllly bad. Broken tiles in bathroom; hair dryer non-functioning; 20 year old sunken mattress; bright red walls, painted by some 5 year old. Missing baseboard in olaces.
Could not have been any worse.
Never ever ever ever stay here. It is an embarrassment to the state of Arkansas.
I thought it was suspicious when it said no refunds when I was booking online. I thought it was suspicious when everywhere else I've ever been they ask for my debit card for deposits. But they never charged me a deposit when I handed them my card. This place immediately charged me $100 when I checked in. There is no coffee pots in the rooms nor any available in the lobby. And the lobby has no AC. There was slanderous notes in the lobby against customers by name. There were threatening notes all over the hotel everywhere I looked including in my room tacked to the wall. The shower curtain was putrid looking. It looks like they furnished the room from stuff they found on the side of the road. The floors were dirty and not mopped. The bed had shredded plastic dragging on the floor they had plastered an adjoining door with the hinges still visible and painted over ever outlet cover in the room. I videotaped the condition of the room when I arrived immediately also. There was no housekeeping of any sort the entire 4 days I was there even after I asked about housekeeping. I was charged $58 for a blue ink stain on a towel and for washcloths being dirty with dirt. APPARENTLY YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO USE THE WASHCLOTHS OR TOWELS. BEWARE AND DONT GO THERE.
There is no reference of a 100$ deposit on site, but lady at front insisted there was so had to pay an extra 100$ . There is mold in bathroom all over walls and ceiling, stained sheets on bed and open electric wires sticking out of the wall. I do not recommend anyone staying here untill the rooms are fixed.
The property needs to be remodeled the sheetrock is peeling water damage bugs coming out of the drains none of the rooms are as pictured on the website

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff was pleasant and friendly. The room was large and equipped with a microwave oven and refrigerator. Everything in the room worked well. The waterpressure was good and the water got hot.
There is no icemaker in the premises.
The overall shape of the buildings was a bit run outdated. The door of our hotel room was hung crooked whichl ooked bad and let extra light into the room from the hallway. The bathroom tile and paint looked like it was left halfway completed.
Everytime a guest would shut the door to their room, it would echo down the hallway and the sound would travel loudly right into our room.
Because the price was so inexpensive and the staff was so friendly, I would still consider staying here again.
Completely horrible we didn't get to stay because we didn't have the money for security deposit which we didn't know that we needed until we got there we had to stay in our car with our 2 yr old granddaughter
Very rude check in. Additional charges added after booking and would not accept additional payment via phone. Christmas spirit was definitely lacking. 😂
