The property was understaffed so there was no morning breakfast or bar soaps for the bathroom. The staff that they had was courteous and hard-working.

I didn’t stay at the hotel due to there not being any hot water, they were having it fixed the next day. It was no fault of the hotel. I canceled my stay with them upon check in

This place was ok, but short staffed, in fact i only saw one person. Our air conditioning didn’t work, we got our room down to 88 degrees. Being pet friendly people were walking their dog late at night, barking in the hallway at 3am is not a good thing.

Very uncomfortable beds on metal frames that squeaked whenever anyone moved. Made for a restless night. Staff was very friendly and check-in was quick. Town has extremely limited dining options after 7:30 which hampered our enjoyment. There's a Dairy Queen and Subway open after dark, plus a couple bars. Not a city we'd stay in more than a night, and would probably get a different hotel with quality beds.

The staff was very friendly and welcoming, but our room was dirty and hot. There was food and dirt in the floor, lights stains from cups still sticky on tables and toothpaste in the sink from previous occupant. It looked like maybe work was being done because there were pieces of wall on the floor in the hallways and it also kinda seemed like it was going under. No breakfast or Coffee, and that would have been fine m, but it was advertised to have it. Like I said, the staff was very friendly but I would never recommend someone to stay there

Not in a great part town, was concerned about leaving anything in the car. Bare basics here, no hairdryer, tiny sparse towels. Breakfast was the worst I have seen at a hotel buffet ever. Lots of kids running up and down hallways for several hours in the evening.

This motel, while unusually inexpensive, is surprisingly pleasant. The cleanliness and overall quality of the rooms is far better than many much more expensive places. While the breakfast is not much and the pool was closed, all else was not bad at all. I was expecting less and got more.

I am usually not one to complain, but I must. My daughter and I stayed at the Econo Lodge in Hot Springs on our way home from Wyoming to Minnesota. The room was filthy. The base of the toilet was covered with urine, hair and pubes. The deadbolt on the door didn't work and we had to push the door very hard to even get it to lock. One of the towels was stained with yellow and it looked like there was urine on the wall. I doubt I will ever stay at another Econo Lodge.
