"Our room was on the side of the hotel closer to highway, railroad tracks and intersection of Pine and 6th street. Needless to say even with windows closed it was very noisy from traffic. Especially after 5;30 am. I had requested a quiet room and was told this one would be. This is an old hotel and has that historic charm but our small bathroom needed updating badly. The room itself was good size and the king bed was comfortable. The location is perfect. Short walk to Hotsprings and good restaurants. Front desk staff were very helpful and friendly. I would stay here again but would request a room in the renovated section of the hotel."
