We went during a quiet period so this review is as such, I imagine the experience will be different during the peak seasons. The place is well prepared for our arrival and the check-in process was easy. The receptionist called us to make sure we didn't have any trouble. Our stay was pleasant for the one night we stayed. There was ample sleeping arrangements for our family of four (2 teenagers).

Found this Hotel cozy and Quaint. Set up was great for families, except no doors on rooms/shower area. But I did LOVE the room. Great deck. A block away from the Hot Springs. Thank you to wonderful stuff, they were very friendly!

Cute little motel. Newly renovated. Very tight for ,2 people and 2 dogs. But very comfortable. Their private soaking pool was delightful. I will definitely return. The town of lava hot springs is adorable.

It is in the middle of the city, so it was convenient to walk to any location. We were in room number 1, and the blinds did not cover the lights very well. So, I suggest changing the blinds to make the room more private. We set up a 1 1/2 hour couples massage, and it was wonderful and relaxing.
