So So
The staff is over the top friendly...the room was clean. Just one thing that bothered me...There are huge gaps under the front door and back door....the biggest of bugs, snakes, spiders could get inside. I could see so much daylight through these cracks...I can't imagine when it is pouring down rain...total water flow under the door into the room. And, how are you suppose to stay warm in the winter? And, it is overpriced on the rooms. Food is good, music was nice.

Actually picked this place on a whim trying to find a decent less expensive hotel, and thought the pictures look good. When I got here, the smoking bluegrass band was playing cold Sprungbully so I checked in, ordered some food, and watched the band for three hours. The food was great. The music was amazing in the room with everything I expected, clean, cozy bed, renovated. This is the best whim decision I’ve made in a long time :-)

Super awesome front desk staff, and amazing staff working at the bar that night. They were busy with the crowd for the live band that was playing but were very quick and efficient and super nice and polite. Pool was unfortunately closed for renovations which kind of sucked but enjoyed the atmosphere of the whole place.

Great time in Eureka Springs.
This is a great small motel. Historic and simple with basic room needs. The bar and restaurant are great (karaoke every night we were there). Front courtyard was nice with a firepit and chairs available. Rear deck looked out on a urban forest with a nice surprise. There was a white tail doe with 2 babies that hung out right off the deck! We will definitely stay here on our next visit to Eureka Springs.

We had a great time here! The few negatives: the bed was really hard (but it was nice to have a king size bed), the room was cooled by an old school ac unit, which was loud, and kicked on and off, and the room was very dated and not very sound proof. I heard the birds early in the morning, very clearly. HOWEVER, I know they're slowly renovating the rooms so I'm giving allowance for that. The staff were wonderful, helpful and friendly. The atmosphere was really fun with the fire pit and the bar with the band. If you're looking for a quiet place to stay or are a light sleeper, this won't be the place for you. I loved going to to sleep to the sound of the band. I would stay here again.

Passing thru.
Got to the facility kinda late. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Great little bar on site. The staff was great in making a slow night fun. Would definitely stop in again for a stay on a night when there is some live music. I’m sure it would be a fun time. I enjoyed it.

Fun place to stay in Eureka Springs
This is my favorite place to stay in Eureka Springs. The Gravel Bar on site is always fun and the fire pit is the best kind of night cap. Some of the rooms have been renovated but some are the same old rooms that I remember staying in back in the day.
