There is a sign out front of the hotel that says its the southern oaks inn. There is a small sign below that says howard johnsons. Made it very diffulcult to locate it. Breakfast was a joke. Cold eggs and sausage, oatmeal, bagels, apples or waffels. No bread for toast. Employee got irate with me when i asked where the bread was. Next day same employee got snarky with me when i asked if threre was a mop to clean up the coffee i spilled on the floor. Said she didnt know where they kept the mop and she would look for it later. This was a safety violation and someone could have fallen .

Great experience

Check in was fast and easy. The workers at the front desk were so kind and helpful. They provided clear instructions of where our room was and gave times for the indoor pool. I did not get breakfast so I cant give an opinion. The hotel is a little older but in great condition. I almost passed up the location bc they are newly owned by Wyndham so the sign is not as big or noticeable. The rooms were clean, there was a few strains of hair where maybe the cleaning crew didnt have their hair pinned back but im a perosn that brings their own cleaning supplies and sanitize my room beforehand anyway. Pillow cases were clean. The air worked perfectly, i had to turn it up bc it had gotten a bit too cold in the room. The patio door worked and it was nice to sit out, wasnt much of a view since my room was in the back of the building but still nice nevertheless. The pool was operable and not crowded. It was clean and had no issues. We were given an access code to the door to get in our room building but i can tell it was newly installed so it was not yet set up or working but the area was safe so there was no fear or worries. Overall a decent hotel for an affordable price. Would consider this hotel again when visiting Branson!

They are doing a great job transitioning.

I was disappointed to get a call that the room I reserved wasn't available. I reserved a king with jetted tub outside ground floor. The first night was a double queen not jetted tub inside at the end of a hall. The queen beds did sleep great. The next morning was miscommunications. By lunch time I did get a call and moved to a king room with jetted tube but upstairs. It wasn't as clean or as comfortable as the double queen room. Would I stay again- yes. I feel they haven't completely switched over. From the former hotel. It also was the off season.
