Following the greeting, we had the pleasure of an audio session of Jerry Springer for the next six hours. The paper thin walls ensured that we could hear every curse, slur, and slap of the domestic abuse ridden chronicle that unfolded next to us throughout the night. When this chapter came to a close around 4am we thought the night might be over, but luckily Telephone Tammy filled the next hour and a half with her riveting telenovela drama that kept us at the edge of our bed until 5:30am. At the end of our stay, we awoke entertained and refreshed on two hours of sleep, ready to take on the day. Stories of the Owl Haven will surly live on in our family for many years to come!

There could be a lot of improvements. I understand over a year ago a car drove thru a section of…read morethe hotel and broke thru the water main etc. So yes I feel bad that they have had some hardships but they reopened the hotel before they should have. I am handicapped and I need to use an elevator, stairs for me are extremely difficult. Besides trying to carry a bag or two I also need my cane so climbing stairs is hard. We get there and the first thing is we do not have an ADA room and our room is on the second floor and the elevator does not work. My husband wanted to leave but it was after 10 pm and I was exhausted. The gal at the front desk was the only working employee when we got there. Kelly (her name) was trying to sign in so she could print up a receipt and she cannot sign in because she does not have a sign in number, name or whatever. She then has to proceed to call her manager who she manages to wake up from a sound sleep. It makes absolutely no sense to leave an employee alone and not give her the tools to do a good job. She was embarrassed that it took her so long to do something simple. Anyway, Kelly carried my bags upstairs which was very much appreciated. We were at one end of the hallway and I took my ice bucket and came and off I went. I kept seeing the vending sign with the arrow. I finally get to the end and there is another vending sign with an arrow pointing down the stairs. Wow was I . Kelly asked if there was a problem, I explained what happened and she promptly came upstairs and got my ice bucket and she brought me ice. Had it not been for Kelly we would have left. The final straw was wanting to take a shower and I couldn't because I couldn't step over the tub. These problems are the reasons I only gave it 2 stars. If I could give stars for your customer service at the hotel I would have given 5 stars. By the way your coffee in the morning was undrinkable

I have no doubt that this is a 5 star hotel but the fact that we were essentially without water for…read more2 days kinda leaves me unhappy. I thought about giving 3 stars but the situation for the sulfur smelling/tasting water was a mechanical issue that could have happened at any time. To their credit, they were apologetic and provided us with a few bottles of water and a bag of ice. Other than not being able to use the water, the place is great! Very quiet in the rooms. Even when 8-10 trucks and boats left early in the morning for the tournaments, we didn't hear a thing. The rooms are newly remodeled and look great! I wouldn't hesitate to come back and stay again although I would definitely ask about the water first. Oh, plus they are dog friendly for $10/night which is MUCH cheaper than putting her in a kennel.

I called the hotel on our long drive to get here and talked to Lindsay, who answered the phone…read more You know that feeling you get when someone answers like they are smiling and want to truly wants to give you great customer service? That's exactly the feeling I got. Lindsay was amazing. When we originally made our reservations, they only had a king room available. There were three of us, and we figured we would have to get an air mattress for our son. I called to see if there were any cancellations for a double queen room. Lindsay was so accommodating and was able to move us to one. She saved us from having to go buy something for our son to sleep on. When we arrived, Lindsay was at the desk. Again, amazing customer service! She is exactly who you want making your first impression: smiling, welcoming, and providing excellent customer service. The next day, my husband met who he thought was the manager, and I am sorry I don't have her name. She told him that they offer a discount to families coming in to tour the welding institute. My husband didn't ask for that discount, so I asked as we were coming back from the school. Again, excellent customer service! Our rate was adjusted. I appreciated the kindness. The breakfast area was comfortable, and food was good to get your day started. The coffee machine, I have to say was amazing. It grinds your beans for each cup. It was so fresh. The tea selection was excellent, too. I enjoyed many cups of hot tea while I was taking breaks from my men. Lol Checkout was not as great. The women with the pink hair was not as warm and friendly as the employees we had previously encountered. I told her about the tv and sink, which didn't seem to phase her. She did write it down, but she offered no apologies. I also asked her to make sure the right card was charged. When I received the receipt the charge went to an old card I don't use. If we received that customer service upon check-in, it would have set a different tone for our experience. Combined with the TV not working correctly and the sink not working, it would have not felt like a five star experience. I am still giving five stars because of the two amazing employees we encountered earlier. Their kindness and excellent customer service made a lasting impression. I would definitely stay here again. 10/17/26

It was def an "A-OK" experience in my book for a few reasons: PRO: Located just off the highway so it's suuuper easy to find! CON: Being located right off the highway means there may be some road-noise during your stay. Also in the morning we could hear other guests in the hallway clear as day. Ugh! PRO: A handful of amenities including and outdoor pool and breakfast bar in the morning! CON: The pool is outdoors so if you're there in the winter/early spring you'r out of luck there. The breakfast bar had a variety of options for patrons so you can get a little something in your tummy. Nothing fancy here! PRO: They're pet friendly! CON: They're pet friendly! They means you man hear them throughout the hotel or smell them in your room. PRO: Friendly service/staff! CON: None! Friendly service is always the best! Being from out of town we were given a run down of the amenities and directions (with a map) to several different places to grab a bite and a drink. While Super 8 Lamar wouldn't have been my first choice for lodging - it made for a decent enough place for us to stay and rest our heads after a long day of travel.
