Arlington Resort Hotel and Spa
The hotel's computer system was down, which created obstacles in check-in and -out. Restaurant was closed for dinner due to a "wedding dinner," and room service was unavailable due to aforementioned computer problem. In fairness, staff members were professional and accommodating and did stellar work ...

Baymont by Wyndham Hot Springs On the Lake
I don’t want this to be a negative review but the hotel was just okay. Probably wouldn’t stay here again but it was not horrible either.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hot Springs
Nice hotel. EV charging on site made it convenient. The room was well appointed, modern, and clean. The only negative was the power on one side of the room stopped working. Apparently someone had tripped the circuit breaker in an adjacent room.

Comfort Suites near Hot Springs Park
The room was not made up. Possibly because it was not requested but it would have been nice to have it done. The Heating/AC unit was older and didn't work so well. The tub drain needed to be cleaned out as the shower water took forever to drain.
