The room was clean and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. We had a nice view of the lake. There was a Murphy bed and foldout sofa. The Murphy bed was adequate but fairly hard. We weee there for the Arkansas Derby so the town was very full and neighbors were very noisy. I still would stay here again.

We always enjoy this property when we stay here! The children love the swimming pool and sand play area. My husband enjoys fishing at the lake. And plus there are a lot of entertainment and food areas located in the area. The carpet had minor stains, but nothing we couldn’t get over. Especially since the place is a little older. Parking is great as long as you remember to put your parking tag in your window. We’ll definitely go back

I only have 3 minor issues. Every room we stayed in shower curtains were not cleaned properly. The couches need to be replaced. Last but not least all the TV's need to be smart TV's. At least let me sign in my accounts and watch my shows.. But my overall stay was very good. This is my 4th stay with Sunbay. We will be back. Love the view and the place is directly on the highway. They have Thick good towels. Its a good spot for children.

The staff was friendly and the koi pond was super cool. However, our room only had 2 pillows, a thin woven blanket, and a sheet. The bed was also very uncomfortable and squeaky. The room was mostly clean but the shower curtain did have spots of black mold on it. The view was pretty but I don’t really feel like the room was worth the price we paid for it. We will be staying somewhere else next time we come to hot springs.

My 2nd stay was good!! The view was everything!! The bathroom shower curtains were not so clean. Staff was a little rude when asked about starting the fireplace. The rooms was great but one bed was very squeaky.. I would still return because the place is beautiful...I love that we could view the lake, eat good, and have drinks without leaving the property.

Room’s floors could had been cleaner. But the rest of our room was clean. Staff were very nice and helpful. Website stated a martini bar./lounge but we were told it hasn’t been open since 2020. The restaurant on the property does have a bar and our meal was great. The pool was outside & heated. Bring shampoo and conditioner there was only a hotel bar of soap in bathroom. No coffee in the room but did have a coffee pot. There was coffee at check in area. Bowling alley/arcade walking distance from hotel that also serves alcohol and mixed drinks. Price of room was good. We would definitely come back.
