The Hotel Hot Springs
Needs a lot of work in a lot of areas! Beds and Pillows were awful at best - pillows were the size of couch throw pillows…no kidding. Beds made an awful metallic grinding sound every time you moved and everything rolled to the center. A solid 2/10 - if I had it to do all over again..I’d chose something ...

Arlington Resort Hotel and Spa
The hotel says it’s under construction and gosh does it need to be! Our bathroom was falling apart badly. The king bed frame was very noisy - Along with the neighbors bed - banging loudly against our wall!! Staff was pleasant but not very interested in our room review during checkout
