My friend and I just spent a weekend hiking near Neosho, and we stayed at the Best Western Big…read moreSpring Lodge. What a delightful place! Every single staff member was wonderful, from the folks at the front desk to the breakfast ladies to the housekeepers to the maintenance men. Julio was very helpful when I called ahead of time with questions about our reservation. Special kudos to Dezaray at the front desk, who was on duty all weekend. She is the epitome of hospitality! We felt so welcomed on check-in; she was friendly and efficient and gave us lots of information about local sites and restaurants. My friend and I played board games in the evenings on both nights of our stay, and Dezaray was so accommodating: turning down the volume on the TV so we could hear each other and making sure we had snacks and drinks available. We chatted with her about our adventures each day and gave her feedback about her restaurant recommendations. It was such a good feeling to walk in the front door and see Dezaray at the front desk, welcoming us "home". Thank you! The breakfast every morning (included in the cost of the room) was EXCELLENT! They had lots of different fresh fruit (bananas, apples, oranges and blueberries) as well as dried apricots and other healthy options. The buffet included everything from eggs to breakfast meats to potatoes to yogurt to breads to the marvelous waffle machine. And, of course, milk (including soy milk) and juices and coffee! There was always ample seating (although we were there at opening each day, and it may get busier later in the morning). We appreciated having the water coolers in the breakfast area and gym room to keep our water bottles full. Our room was spacious and well-appointed, with two queen-size beds, a bureau (which also contained the room fridge and microwave and held the TV), nightstand, armchair, desk area with office chair, closet and bathroom. We appreciated the European model of the toilet and shower/tub being separated from the sink/vanity area. Despite the lodge's proximity to the highway, our room was quiet and we both slept well. It was easy to adjust the temperature (which was handy since our window faced east). The housekeeping staff was very accommodating, as we declined full services but asked for fresh towels each day. We were sad that the pool wasn't open yet, but we understand, given the cooler weather. We were also sad that there was no hot tub available, as that would have been very nice after hiking all day. There is a gym room which looks like it's filled with all necessary equipment, but we never used it. The lodge's location is very handy: adjacent to Hwy 60, near drug stores and restaurants, and just a few minutes from downtown Neosho. The area is very safe: well-lit with grassy areas surrounding the property for guests with pets to exercise. We did encounter two maintenance issues during our stay. The first was that the tub stopper would not stay in the "up" position to drain the tub while taking a shower (we used a clothespin to keep it open). The second was a faint odor of mold from the carpet underneath the vanity/sink, where there must have been a prior leak. I brought both of these issues to the attention of the manager as I was checking out, and she promised to address them. My friend said how much she enjoyed staying at the Big Spring Lodge, and I agree! We will definitely return on our next visit to the Neosho area. Thank you for a marvelous stay!

They actually left out some cereal and milk on Saturday morning which was very nice. The room we stayed in was comfortable and fitted. There were some stains on the floor in various areas on the carpet. On the floor above us there seemed to be a track and field event being held because we heard constant running and jumping for hours on end throughout multiple times. The bathrooms by the lobby were broken, but the ones in the room worked fine. The people working here were all nice. The first set of keys they gave us only worked for the first day and they had to fix them the next day. Overall good stay for the cheap price.

Booked a room here for about a week while on vacation to visit my father. Everything was fairly…read moreclean. Hard wood floors seemed a little sticky without shoes on but that may be the housekeeping using to much product to water ratio when mopping because it did not look dirty at all. Bathtub didnt drain very well while showering which kind of sucks and there was a burn mark on the blanket in a non-smoking room.. but whatever , there was a bigger issue waiting for us. Being from the west coast my bf and I weren't used to the 2 hour time difference. I guess we missed housekeeping rounds sleeping in, on our way out about 1130am we ask front desk ( older indian male) to give room 106 clean bed linens as we have been there for 2 days already and have not seen housekeeping in our room at all. He proceeds to tell us housekeeping is gone for the day. Looking baffled we ask if he can provide the clean linens. He looks at us exasperated and says fine ok. We did not come back to clean linens. Whoever went into the room while we were gone folded the used linens that were on the floor and set them on the end of the bed. I knew for a fact they were not clean. They were folded sloppy and had all the same wrinkles. Not to mention the fact one of the blankets had the same exact burn mark from before. Oh and did I mention room 106 is a NON-smoking room. The trash was still full and no new towels. The used towels were taken, well all but one that was left on the bathroom floor. We had to go down to the front desk at about 1am (young white male) went straight back and came out with fresh linens and towels no issue. In the first 3 days our bed was never made and our garbage cans never emptied. I do not recommend, especially if it is an extended stay. The employees care more than the owners do and that shows me the owners probably don't care about their employees. Which means they definitely do not care about the guest.

Super 8 - Neosho…read more I've stayed in number of Super 8 hotels and most of them have been mixed. Mostly negative experiences. Not this one. When you first walk into the lobby, two friendly ladies with big smiles welcomed me. I was able to check in and get my room keys very quickly. I was asked, "Would you like to stay in one of our upgraded rooms?" "That would be great, thank you," I replied. They did mention that they are renovating their entire building and apologized for the mess in advance. As you look around the lobby and breakfast area, it's very bright and very clean. Very welcoming and surprising for a Super 8. Once I arrived in my room, it smelled fresh and clean. Bed was so comfortable that I overslept the next morning by few hours. I kept snoozing my alarm, didn't want to get up. Bathroom was nice and clean with new towels. Shower pressure was good too. Vanity mirror and sink probably could be raised up higher. It was too low for my height. It was below my waist. It might be a mobility accessible room. The ladies went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable as possible. Definitely would recommend to stay here.
