We had to call ahead since we were a late arrival. They had keys for us in their lock box. The room was old and would have given it a better rating if their wasn't hair in the shower. We loved to be able to use their mineral pool at 10 pm when we arrived and first thing in the morning at 6 AM before we left. Friendly staff and I wished we had more time to stay and explore Lava Hot Springs! We ate breakfast across the street at The Chuckwagen. Best breakfast on our trip! I would stay at the Lava Hotel again because of the pool.

We stayed in one of the tiny houses. There were three of us. The futon bed is not comfortable even for a futon. That is the only reason my overall rate is not a 5. If there are just 2 of you, then the tiny houses might be a great choice.

We asked to extend our stay by one day, was told we could do that and that the price would be hígher for the one night. We dropped our bags off at our room and came back to the front desk to buy the additional date and was told we now couldn't book the dateas it was a requirement of Mgmt that all stays be at leastv2 days and this was only 1 day. We had booked 4 days i explained but just neèded 1 additional date. No matter, it wasnt available now for some reason. Follow Up - Mgr left a card for us at front desk for an additional dates stay on them for a future date! Wished we could have stayed one more night there but very happy with the Mgmt making ammends this way!

There were dead bugs in the room, dirty lamps and extremely dirty floor vents. They were broken as well. Two lamps had parts that were broken. The design of the room was terrible. I would never stay at this property again.
