Ozark Courts Motel — Hotel in Hot Springs

Oh man. Do not book this place even if it is the only place left in town as it was for us. We accidentally planned our trip for the same weekend as a huge horse race, so we wound up here.||||I've stayed in some cheap places in the past that had some subpar reviews. I figure there are always some people who don't understand that you get what you pay for, and maybe that was, to some extent, the case here, but please know that it was disgusting and the owner has zero boundaries.||||The refrigerator was full of food and it the smell of old vegetables permeated the entire room. There was a wilted lettuce leaf in the kitchen sink and old dip spit in the bathroom sink. We're pretty sure someone was living there.||||Arkansas is great for riding bikes (bicycles), right? So we brought our bikes. They're nice bikes. They were locked to our car when we arrived, so we got checked in, then ran out to grab some food, then came back to bring the bikes inside for the night. Donna, the lovely owner with no boundaries, then stopped us as we were bringing them inside and told us "no, that they go over there" and pointed to an outdoor area where we could lock them for the night. I told her they were absolutely going in the room with us for the night. She asked where we would put them. I told her we would figure it out, that we have figured it out in the past. She then barged into our room and insisted on putting them where she wanted them. We left a day early because we were downright afraid of...

Me and my friend randomly planned spontaneous girls trip from Ohio to Hot Springs and didn’t realize our trip fell on a busy Holiday for the local area. We had called 20 places on our list but either they weren’t within our budget or they were booked. I’m so glad the owner called us back letting us know she had a room available. Little did we know upon arriving that Ozark Courts Motel was a little hidden gem! Immediately upon arrival we were greeted and admiring the nostalgic energy of this motel. It similarly resembled one of our favorite motels back home. Parking was easy and convenient. Our room was absolutely groovy. Extremely clean and neat. As women traveling we felt safe here. This is definitely a place I would come back to time and time again and would recommend 10 out of 10. The location is convenient to downtown Hot Springs close to Bathhouse Row and all that downtown...
