“A Bit Disappointed”

The Border House

1/1 found this review helpful

I have stayed here many times in the past 15 years. I have never been asked to do my own dishes. I am on vacation, paying for the room and have to wash my own coffee cups and coffeepot. I could have stayed at any motel for 1/4 of the price and not had to do my own dishes. The heater wasn't working the first night and part of next day. We ran out of hot water both mornings. I think we have stayed through 3 different owners. These are the least hospitable. The place is for sale. It is one of my favorite places to stay in Eureka Springs so I am looking forward to more hospitable owners next time.

The Border House as most all condo style properties that provide kitchen facilities do require that dish's be washed. At no time do you have to clean your own room. The heater was working fine when this guest checked in, only after they changed the settings on the heat were they not able to heat the room properly and when they did call to report the problem we went to the property with in 10 minutes and reprogrammed the heat and had it working properly in a couple of minutes. In five years of owning this property we have never had a complaint from a guest that they ran out of hot water, however we have already installed a new water heater with a larger capacity.

The Border House has the best location in Eureka, and the accomodations are updated and real comfortable. The outdoor hot tub is also fantastic.

This is a very nice property, comfortable for the whole family and plenty of privacy. We so enjoyed sitting on the front porch overlooking the downtown area.
