This was the perfect place for a quick night sleep with the family on our way to Dallas. All staff were extremely helpful and happy. The room was spotless and in great condition. As this was an older motel style place, the cleanliness truly stuck out. Bathroom was gorgeous. Definitely on my list of places to stay for a quick night when travelling through the area.

For a hotel in Arkadelphia, it’s not bad. The property has been updated and decently maintained. Our room was clean and nice enough. The clerk who checked us in was friendly, and the clerk who helped me re-key my card when it didn’t work was helpful enough. I literally didn’t see another staff member during our stay. That’s not so great when the breakfast food items are out or low less than an hour into the service window and there’s no one around to refill or replenish them. Or, as my wife and daughter experienced, the person who is there seems to have an issue with people asking for or actually eating the items offered. I have no issues with this being a fairly low-budget stay or limited breakfast selections. A little more attention and cheerfulness would change this review from “good enough”” to “great”!

Staff was great, everything was clean and looked new. Breakfast was typical stuff, but well done and kept stocked and clean. The wifi was out, but i arrived late and was informed immediately. I was only there to get away for a night, so it was perfect.
