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.

I wanted to love this place but if you support historic, quirky old properties, don’t chose this. PROS: pet friendly & convenient location. But so is the charming remodeled Best Western across the street, where parking is ample and staff is professional. CONS: amenities listed for room (desk, iron, housekeeping) don’t exist. Amenities you take for granted like comfortable, ample bedding, bath mat, housekeeping, outlets and places to hang clothes and wet towels, a parking space, documentation showing room charges & policies, desk staff to check in/out, locking windows/doors, a sink stopper, GFCI outlet in the bath/any outlet at all in the bath, exhaust fan in bath…all nonexistent. Also expect to be chided and charged more if you book through Expedia after trying to book directly showed no vacancy. The best thing about this place is their advertising and the youngest lady on staff. But all the attention went into campy claims, not actually providing a clean, comfortable and well-lit basic room with what travelers need: a decent mattress & pillows, sturdy lounge chair, outlets for everything in the room plus guest’s needs, a place for luggage so not on the musty carpet, a place for used towels, a place for toiletries in the bath, a place to park when you return after a long day—and even if plain all should be clean and in good repair. There are just too many better options at this price and location to risk your vacation time here.

The Gravel bar food and service were excellent. The bed in my room was comfortable. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful. If I had a critique, it would be to put better lighting in the rooms. Also, the swimming pool was drained and had nasty water in the bottom of it. I would stay again.

The staff is phenomenal, the fire pit, restaurant & live band were just the right touches for our night away in Eureka. However, I noticed a few of the rooms are upgraded, while we were in a room still did it to the 70s and not in the best condition. (And for the same price?) The shower was either scalding hot or freezing cold, and would change on its own dime, without you touching the knobs. There was absolutely no water pressure and the worst part, was the AC kicking on and off sporadically. Leaving us sweating most of the night. This made for a rough nights rest. The bar and restaurant looked to be amazing, but after a $12 small drink, we opted for something else a little more affordable.. All in all, the staff, fire pit, and good times with friends made this a fun night, but unfortunately, we won’t stay here again 😔
