I'll skip Lava Hot Springs next time

The pictures online made this property look more appealing than it was. The bed qas very comfortable and there's a nice big tv, but the bathroom was tiny, with mineral scale covering everything and it just didn’t look clean. There was a weird smell in the room, like fake cleanser, but it wasn't pleasant. I wouldn't stay here again, even for the reasonable price.

I only stayed here for one night but I loved it!! The bathroom is a little small and a place to hang a hand towel would be good. The view of the river in the back and the ability to just sit on the chairs and relax is fabulous!! 10/10 will be coming back!

동료에게 추천받아서 갔는데 실내도 깨끗하고, 전체적으로 매우 만족스러운 숙소입니다. 다만 도로가 좀 가깝고, 낮시간엔 기차소리가 들릴 수는 있어요.

The rooms are small but very well kept up. The bed was comfortable. When we opened the door in the bathroom it went out to a patio with chairs. It was easy to walk to the river. They setup a kid friendly movie after dark. served popcorn and cotton candy. I would definatly stay again.

This was less than 5 minute drive from town and the municipal hot springs. They stay open until 11:00pm so we were able to go at night and again in the morning. Great breakfast. Highly recommended.
