Everyone was friendly, the room was nice. To use the shower, pull the circle out of the spout where the water comes out 😉 Breakfast was a pretty good spread for a hotel. I was satisfied.

Not to bad!!! Quiet and safe location.

The price was great. The rooms were nice. The bed not so comfortable. I was here for 6 nights and the maid service was lacking. We left the do not disturb sign out 1 time. We got towels in a trash bag by the door one night and the trash was not emptied for 2 to 3 days. Got fresh towels 1 time. out of 6 night. I enjoyed the breakfast. There was choices. The coffee was hot and it was good. THe breakfast area was nice and clean. Overall a 3.5 out of 5.

My only complaint is that I smelled a strong weed smoke smell on our floor the whole time. We weren’t in the hotel for long though, because we were busy with family.

Our stay was exactly what we hoped for. Convenient to most everything in Fort Smith, very helpful desk hosts. Our room had a musty smell (like AC not draining properly) that I wanted to report but the clerk was not there at checkout. Nice property though.
