Great stay! Room was very clean with a little patio outside which was lovely to sit in with a cup of coffee in the morning. The hotel was within walking distance to downtown with tons of restaurants and of course the springs. Highly recommend!

Great location with easy access to the thermal springs, trails, and restaurants. Room was comfortable and clean. No lift/elevator so lugging the heavy suitcase up the stairs was a bit of a chore.
