The staff or rather, the family that owns and lives there is very nice. The room did have a couple of bed bed blood spatters on on the walls but I did not see any bugs in the room. The counters had not been fully wiped down in the bathroom and by the tv. The breakfast was really, really bad. I tried the biscuits and gravy but the sausage had turned. Then I tried cereal and the milk was bad... Overall, it was what I expected for $70 right outside of Bentonville.

The stay was fine though the lady at the counter I was paying seemed lost and untrained she talked way too low and acted as if it was an unconvinced when I asked her repeatedly to speak up because I couldn’t hear her. The room we first were booked smelt awful as if someone had smoked meth, there were cigarette buds on the floor under the bathroom counter as well so we asked for a different room. Second room was fine however the breakfast was cold and not many options to choose from. And not to mention I was told the pool would be open and it was closed the entire stay because of maintenance?!?! Absolutely disappointed considering I completely overpaid for the stay specifically for that, if ur gonna charge people the same rates as a four or five star hotel atleast have ur services and environment worthy of it.

Never again
There were cockroaches everywhere, the toilet didn’t flush, front desk guy was rude and kept trying to double and triple charge our card that was put on file even though we paid in cash. I’ve never been this disgusted before staying at an Econo Ldge.

Good value
Older budget property but felt clean. Has solid synthetic wood floor tiles rather than carpet. Beds and bathroom seemed clean. Next door to gas station and Subway sandwich stop. Has waffles, toast, oatmeal packets, gravy and biscuits, juice and good coffee for continental breakfast. Only one staff member overnight but they were very friendly and attentive. Was a relaxing travel spot used to break up a long trip. More economical than motels in more populous area but met our needs. Refrigerator but no coffee in room but you could get your own coffee at travel stop next door if that is an issue. Shower hot and strong water flow. Trucker and dog friendly. Pool charge of $8 if anyone in room cares to use it; we did not, so cannot comment on pool area. Apparently has a new owner October 2023 and they are doing some maintenance.

Not everything is a a good as it says on ads
drove down 7 1/2 hours for us. Family emergency. I chose this hotel because it said on Hotels.com that it had a pool and a gym and that it was pet friendly when I arrived I was told that my ESA dog was going to cost an additional $12 a night. We also ended up in a smoking room because there were no rooms available at non-smoking. We are definitely not smokers, and the smell was very strong. In fact, it was so strong my clothes still smell like cigarette smoke after returning home, the toilet was plugged the whole time and we were constantly trying to get it to work without a plunger, there was no gym and the air conditioning decided to get stuck on heat in the middle of the night during 100+ degree temperatures. Although the service was great from the employees, I would definitely not recommend this because it just causes more stress for my situation than I already had enough going on. Rooms were not very clean and they did not have sufficient bedding on them. No overhead lights made lighting rough to work in. I’m not a complainer, but this was a horrible.

For a relatively inexpensive place to spend a night, this place was great! The desk clerks (night and morning) were personable, efficient, and friendly. Everything in all areas were clean. The hotel is older, and shows wear and tear in places. This wear and tear in our room was not ugly; it was just worn. The outside was in serious need of a weedeater and general attention. The parking lot was clean of debris, but the medians were filled with rock, and had weeds/grass growing up between them. Our beds were clean and comfortable. The pillows were great! We had both firm and soft pillows on the bed. Nice. This is definitely a "no frills" hotel, but we were given the feeling that if we needed more shampoo, soap, whatever, all we needed to do was ask. I'm happy.

My room was spotlessly clean and the bed was very comfortable. The front desk clerk was pleasant and spoke highly of the owners. My room was a bit humid, so I'm not sure if the air conditioner needed servicing, but I was overall very pleased with the quality of this hotel for the price.

Place needs major redo. Shower head was falling out of the wall. Mattress was terrible all broke down on the side. Free breakfast was a joke. No fruit, egg, yogurt. Looked like a place with no money trying to provide breakfast. Will not stay there again.

It was ok for a quick night to spend close to where I was working the next day, but I would not bring my wife here. Several things in the room and bathroom were in need of repair and attention to detail. Breakfast was extremely simple and plain. I did get a hood night’s rest but was glad it was just me staying and not my family.
