Guest Reviews

• Jacob (8/5): - Managers are great. Rooms were clean
• Henry (10/5): - …..
• James (6/5): It's nothing special - Room was clean. Bed was hard as a rock. One tiny circle of soap to use for showering and washing hands. Toilet seat was broken and would throw you in the floor if not careful. It was $100 for a Monday night, which wasn't a bad price, but the amenities were lacking.
• Steve (10/5): - Love the clean room and the friendly staff.
• Lisa (10/5): - Great room ! Great Property ! Great staff !
• Brett (8/5): - No laundry soap at the front desk but other than that it’s a decent motel.
• Brandon (8/5): - ..
• Logan (4/5): - This place is not good. Only booked here because they said they had an electric car charger, but come to find out it was broken and would not have been free to use anyway. Room smelled like it had been smoked in for years. AC was on full blast but the room never got below maybe 70. Door didn’t close all the way unless you pushed hard on it and the lock was held on with tape. Hair dryer didn’t work and was filthy and the room was not very thoroughly cleaned. Ran out of toilet paper and there were no extras in the room, and the front desk would not bring any. Guy behind the counter had BO so bad the smell stuck in my nose for hours. Cable TV signal was horrible. WiFi sucked. Not enough parking spots. Only decent things about it were that there was a microwave, fridge and shampoo and body wash and the bed was at least comfortable.
• Alvin (8/5): - Check in person was amazing. Super friendly and gave us good information to get around. The only thing that we didn’t like was the bed. It was hard.
• Eugenia (6/5): - Room clean but air conditioning very poor- room remained warm. Staff friendly Parking adequate. Facility on main road but heard gunshots coming from nearby- perhaps neighborhood not the best.
• Verified traveler (10/5): HOME AWAY FROM HOME - We always stay here when we are in Little Rock. It’s across the street from UAMS and is so convenient. The people are very nice and the rooms are clean. We call it our home away from home.
• Elizaabeth (8/5): - Rather loud. Thankfully the next room didn't keep the TV on extremely late
• Candace (4/5): - I am not sure how these places get there ratings but 8 and above should not have trash outside, be next to a freeway, building patched and broken, room not cleaned properly, clerk should be able to answer questions....now after this trips i dont know that trust expedia anymore
• Elaine (10/5): Renovated rooms at a great price - You wouldnt know it from the outside, but this hotel has newly renovated rooms with great amenities. A great value. Thanks!
• Kenneth (8/5): - I was satisfied with the property except one thing. The couch in the room was filthy. There was probably a child there previously and food was spilled all in the cushions. I removed the cushions since i checked in late and when i returned the next day it had been taken care of. Other than that the proprty was satisfactory.
• Krystal (6/5): - It was ok Bed was comfortable Had to re-key the room every time I closed the door. Of course the verbal routine is to try to convince you that your phone or key fob is causing demagnetization with the key. Television had a weak signal. The parking spaces are too close. I found a better room less than 10 minutes away for half the price
• Charles D (10/5): - I liked the day shift guy who checked us in Very polite and resprctful. Dorry i difnt get yhe man's name
• Jesse (2/5): - The motel staff didn't clean the room, didn't bring clean towels, there was only 1 wash cloth, and parking there was ridiculous. Ill never stay there again. The only good side of the stay was it was in close proximity of the event we were attending.
• Fanci (4/5): - Condition of the room was unacceptable. It was dirty and smelled. Not enough towels or toilet paper. Had a hard time getting my dot to open and close. Curtains wouldn’t stay closed. It was close to where we needed to be but it wasn’t worth what I paid
• Jennifer (10/5): - Great front desk people and quiet rooms. I would stay here again.
• Susan (10/5): - Property is great value. It’s clean and the people are very nice. It’s nothing fancy and everything that you need.
• Lauren (8/5): - The check in was smooth and quick. Room was average but most importantly clean.
• jeff (10/5): - We always stay here, very nice place and people
• Donna (8/5): - Not an issue checking in
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The stay was fine. Everyone was very nice. Our room was clean and in order. the only complaint is the room had a very mildew smell to it. it was room 101 if i remember correctly. Other than that, everything was good.
• Christa (10/5): - Great Staff!
• Cal (6/5): - Nice & friendly staff, but the room was old and falling apart.
• Tammy (6/5): - This hotel was perfect for our stay except the second night, the smell of cigarette smoke came in our room from the vent in the bathroom so bad that it was sickening. Just a freak coincidence.
• CLint (10/5): - A little noisy from traffic, but spacious room.
• Penny (10/5): - The convenience to the cancer institute as well as the cleanliness was excellent. It would have been nice if the restaurants around the area left menus here but regardless it was a pleasant stay except for the children that were staying above us running around. We will definitely return for my future appointments and ask for a room that has no kids staying above us LOL!
• Connor (4/5): Yuck - Not sure how this place has high reviews. It’s a dump in an economically depressed city. Room was very smelly and dark.
• Judith (8/5): - Very basic accommodations for a very basic price.
• Marshal (2/5): Worst ever! - This is the worst hotel I’ve stayed into. I’ve used Hotels.com for 20 years. There’s open drug use. The manager knows about it. I called the police. The police did nothing about it. I had to leave and driving rain because I could not stand the smell of the illegal drugs you need to get this hotel off of your list. I would like to be contacted as I want to file this complaint as far as I can.
• John (10/5): - Always clean, staff is friendly
• Douglas (10/5): Medical accommodations. - We have stayed there for the last three years for our yearly med check up. It is convenient ly located to the Med Center and the accommodations are good and we would recommend it to anyone.
• Stephen (8/5): Affordable, clean, safe, location - The desk service was good No daily breakfast No daily housekeeping Room clean and comfortable Location near Arkansas Children’s Hospital fantastic Need ground floor room, next guest swapped rooms, fantastic Quiet, nice, & safe location big +++
• Rickey (10/5): Great stay and very clean - Easy check-in with polite and courteous people. This is my second stay and it’s always clean. The parking area is well lighted facing an interstate. I was not afraid to stay by myself the first time. The second time was with my husband. Its close to UAMS and Veterans Hospital just across the interstate.
• Judy (10/5): - Only drawback was noise level from traffic!!!?
• Jodie (10/5): - Nice room and stay. Staff very accommodating and nice.
• James (10/5): - loved everything
• Jarvis (10/5): Home away from home - It’s always a great experience. Rooms clean, staff friendly, never a hassle. Close to the hospital.
• Pauline (8/5): - There was no free breakfast, only coffee. Otherwise our stay was very good.
• Ronald (2/5): What the hell - This hotel really depressed me for the evening. Everything looks like it was 50 years old except the television. Very close to hospital. The review of an 8.8 is extremely strange.
• Gloria (10/5): - Wish there had been more towels room was great
• Kenya (8/5): - Great for the price, quiet, only problem is flat pillows and no vending machines and ice machine didn’t work but wasn’t a problem as there are nearby places with short drive to get ice, overall satisfied for the price and will stay again
• Dior (10/5): - N/a
• Shawn (6/5): - Everything was ok except for the room comfort of the room. Beds and pillows are definitely below standard.
• John (10/5): - Great place
• Betty (4/5): - A little creepy.
• Kathy (8/5): - Customer service was good
• May (10/5): - Close to medical center.
• Ezechukwu (6/5): - The staff were fantastic and very generous. Though, there were feces stains on the ironing board and some towels were stained. Advertised to be 3 minutes from UAMS but closer to 15 minutes to the hospital. Very noisy during rush hour due to being next to the highway.
• Kimberly (8/5): - Room was clean and very close to my the hospital where I was having surgery! But the surrounding neighborhood was not the best.
• Latresa (6/5): - It was worth the stay.
• SHEALYNN (10/5): Surgery Stay - Booked this room for the night before my daughter's surgery. I was booked for the 6-7 on accident I was needing the 5-6 and they got it fixed right up for us. Clean, comfy, super friendly and helpful, close to children's. All in all a great stay.
• Steven (10/5): - Helpful and friendly staff
• James (10/5): - great deal
• Sophia (10/5): - Super comfortable
• Sara (8/5): - Very courteous staff, clean room, room was worn and could use a little updating.
• Melissa (6/5): - Check in went smooth. But, i went back to tell him the door wouldnt open and he kind of rudely told me to stop talking and let him talk. We couldnt use the tub right because there wasnt a stopper. And one of the comforters had what looked like blood stains on it.
• Nardica (10/5): - Very close to The hospital. I felt comfortable and safe. Room was clean and comfy! I will always stay here if a room is available. Staff very friendly!
• Sharon (10/5): - I like that I reserved online and when I got to the room everything was clean and working properly
• Donna (10/5): - Stay was fine. It was a clean reasonable priced place to stay while my granddaughter was in Children’s Hospital
• Mike (10/5): - Stayed two nights and would book here again. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. Very convenient location.
• mohamed (6/5): - Convenient for under 100 dollars. Safe area
• Mohamed (2/5): - Smelled like mixed urine and wine! Bed sheets were stained. Really terrible experience!
• Damon (10/5): Excellent Service - Outstanding service! I asked the manager about some restaurant recommendations pointed me to some amazing places to eat. Every time I cam in he was always working on something trying to make the place as nice as possible for guest. Enjoyed the stay, will book again in the future.
• carol (8/5): - fine accommodations clean and quiet. one concern not everyone likes huge pillows. would had liked one not so big
• Ron (4/5): - I don’t know how this property has such a high rating, continue reading and judge for yourself. The front desk area is extremely basic. There were tools piled behind the counter, and no one at the desk to greet guests. Although they must have been in the next room because they did appear almost immediately after I knocked on the glass partition. They provide coffee in the morning but nothing else. The room smelled strongly of weed/pot. The bedding/bathroom/carpet/furniture appeared clean although some of the veneer was peeled off one of the nightstands. They only provided 2 thin towels and 2 washcloths for a king room for 2 nights. There were no hand towels at all so you have to use the bath towels to dry your hands. Water pressure, temperature and drainage were all ok. The room was not serviced at all, and when I asked about the lack of service when I checked out. The attendant replied that they do not have daily service and I had to request that if I had wanted it. I wish they had made that clear when I checked in. In summary, it’s an average but safe hotel that I feel should be related in the mid 6 to low 7 range. Their current rating in the 8 range is vastly overstated, and they need to do something immediately about the marijuana smell and lack of appropriate towels.
• David (8/5): - Decent hotel for the price.
• Jeffrey (10/5): - Friendly and helpful staff.
• Juan (10/5): - We checked in late and the gentleman who checked us in was efficient friendly, and most helpful.
• Louis (10/5): - Pretty good place to just Rest, right off the interstate, the stuff tries to make sure everyone is taken care.
• Jerry (8/5): Basic motel - Convenient location is a barebones motel. Clean but worn rooms. Staff were helpful.
• April (10/5): - Great stay. Clean. Seemed safe.
• Lori (8/5): - It wasnt too bad for just stopping and catching a few hours of sleep. The manager was super nice. My only complaint would be the smell of the room. Smelled like they were trying really hard to cover the smoke smell just making it worse.
• GREGORY (8/5): - I feel this property was accurately represented in the description, Good value for the money. It had what we needed, and didn't have what we didn't need. Would stay here again. Traffic is noisy, but not a problem inside the room. The room was absolutely clean (I used a blacklight)
• Kimberly (10/5): You can't go wrong staying here - I will ONLY stay here when I go to Little Rock. The staff is friendly, especially Harvey, I feel safe, the ease on getting on and off the interstate is easy, the bed / pillows are so comfortable. The room is very clean, the bathtub in one you can lay back in, stretch out and soak. I referred my daughter and her husband there when they went to LR for a concert. They really liked it. A friend is coming in from Kentucky, I have referred them there this very weekend. The price is very reasonable and they have all the amenities you need.
• Sharon (8/5): - Had a very bright light outside our door. It made our room very light. It was difficult to get to sleep. Also no breakfast and the coffee pot in our room was missing a piece.
• Marian (6/5): - The hotel was not great. There were no hand towels, no service. Had to go down stairs to get clean towels and again to get coffee etc. No decaf. Staff was ok.
• WILLIAM (10/5): - The staff were very polite. Convenient location. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Reasonable rates.
• Kimberly (10/5): Clean and Comfy - This hotel was very clean, I felt safe, as I was staying alone while my loved one was in the hospital. It was easy to get on and off the interstate. The bed/pillows was VERY comfortable. It was my second stay thwre, and will be back as long as loved one is in hospital and Im driving from out of town to be there with them.
• Vicky (8/5): - It was comfortable and quiet.
• Ashley (10/5): Convenient and Cost Effective - The rooms appeared to be recently renovated. Overall it was clean and great for a last minute stay. Only "complaint" was the bedding was a little thin, but thats a personal preference and wouldn't have been an issue if I had actually planned for an overnight stay. Very conveniently close to UAMS and VA hospital. Flip side is since you're so close there are sirens thru the night. Recommend to stay here for a cost effective hotel within 5 minutes of the hospitals!
• Ernest (8/5): - Good price. Close to hospitals. Clean. 😩 no breakfast, hard mattress
• William (10/5): - Clean and affordable
• Pat (4/5): - In the shower there was a leftover dirty wash cloth left by previous guest and a disposable shaver in the drain
• Julie (4/5): - I was baffled by the high rating of this establishment. The room was grimy, there were brown spots on most walls and mildew growing on the wall art. The smell of air freshener was overwhelming and caused a sore throat. The motel is right on the highway, so there is a lot of traffic noise. Staff was very blasé. DO NOT RECOMMEND.
• Joe (10/5): - Clean and affordable with friendly staff. Good spot when passing thru Little Rock
• Angela (6/5): - Shower didn’t work. Don’t realize it was a smoking room so it smelled terrible. Staff was very friendly.
• Steve (6/5): - Lots of movement at this hotel. Road noise was terrible.
• Zachary (2/5): Bad hotel - It was the worst room I’ve had to twenty years
• Sean (6/5): - Its close to the hospital so there are constant sirens, Not to mention the noise from the highway. The tv signal kept going out so you couldnt watch a movie or TV program all the way through. There are no vending machines at all.
• Todd (2/5): - We lost water, so no showers. Mngment did not offer anything. Will not go back
• Cassandra (6/5): - There was no continental breakfast as advertised
• Sandy (10/5): - Clean and comfortable - with efficient staff - and a reasonable price. I would stay here again for sure.
• Maxime (8/5): - Nice place overall. The staff is incredibly nice and gives great advice on what to visit while you’re staying in Little Rock.
• Chantel (10/5): - Check-in was super easy and fast. The young lady who checked me in was very friendly and accommodating. Would stay here again. Location was great, clean, only complaint I would request a lower floor because I have bad knees, but that was totally on me, nothing the motel did…
• Andrea (10/5): - The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. A great place to stay and only 4 minutes to USMS and VA hospitals. I highly recommend Garden Inn and Suites.
• Benjamin (10/5): - The property and room was clean and in good condition. The staff was pleasant and capable. Good value for the money.
