Don't let the pictures fool you, they were taken long ago. This hotel badly needs renovation. The only redeeming quality was that the beds were passable comfort. Don't even think about asking if your room is ready even a minute before 3pm. Front desk could have been more courteous about this.

Hotel didn’t have my reservation from hotel.com and several other guests. No room service. Room not great. Breakfast late and kept running out of food. Staff quitting and most weren't friendly or seemed like they cared to be there.

I would have given all 5s but there were a few things that could be better. First the positives, the rooms.were very clean and quite specious our room was linoleum or wood tiling (?) Which was amazing, some hotels you are afraid to take off your shoes. The room rate was very reasonable, this was still considered pre-season when we stayed. I love that this facility isnpet friendly and the per day cost for your pet to stay was also reasonable. The beds were very comfy, there weren't any weird smells. The breakfast was amazing for it being free, they had biscuits, gravy, scrambled eggs, bagels, cereal and fresh fruit. My only thing I could think that could be better is you could tell this was a family oriented facility, there were kids roaming the halls and slamming doors and being children, I wouldn't recommend this hotel for single people without kids. Overall I really enjoyed my stay.

BED BUGS!!! Would not give us a refund or set us up at another hotel. We had to leave at 11:00 pm. Front desk called the Manager. The manager came to our room and confirmed that it was bed bugs. The manager called the General Manager and told him that it was bed bugs. They did not warn other quests and were still accepting new guests as we were leaving. Tried warning the new person and was told to leave the grounds.

It was not a Howard Johnson Hotel. The bathroom floor and base were poorly repaired and dirty. Had to move to another room because floor bases in bathroom extremely dirty and toiled poorly flushed. The pool section was nice but water was too cold since they recently completely changed water. The bed clean and comfortable. The building old.

The room was fairly clean, but the hallways of the hotel were nasty. Things stuck to the floor and walls, the carpet looked like it hadn’t been vacuumed or cleaned at all in months. No microwave in the room, which would’ve been fine since there were two out by the vending machines. However one did not work, and the other one was absolutely disgusting. Not a days worth of someone accidentally spilling something, i’m talking months of caked on gunk that smelled horrific when you used the microwave. The tv was tiny, didn’t get very loud and the captions didn’t work, so my deaf fiancé couldn’t enjoy tv with me. The bed was very firm, and the pillows were like rocks. The keypad to get into our section of the hotel was beyond frustrating. Took at least 8 tries each time to get it to work. For the price we paid, it was ok enough. Definitely need to get some better cleaners though,

It is an older hotel so keep that in mind. The room and bedding were clean. The bathroom was clean but needs update the paint on the tub is coming off. The staff and the breakfast were wonderful though. It was easy to check in and fast. Nice indoor pool. If you are an extremely picky person dont stay here if you aren't you'll have a great time! Its real close to the main stretch of fun also within 1 mile to most attractions!!

I had booked a room with a king bed and a jacuzzi tub, I did not recieve either they said they didnt have one. The carpet and decor for the room could use an update along with the stairway. The queen bed was comfy but my husband and I are use to a king. Breakfast was amazing along with the price for the night, literally when we go places we go and are only in the room to sleep.

I was pleasantly surprised. I was visiting the area to help family make a move and just needed someplace reasonable to stay. The property was older but had been kept up and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Not really remodeled, but still for its age, clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was good. We used the indoor pool one evening and it was nice as well. In a time where hotels charge you more and give you less, this place out performed. While my room wasnt actually cleaned daily, i would arrive back to clean towels and restocked coffee, which really surprised me because I've stayed in way more expensive places and had to beg for those items, or go and get them myself. Overall for the value, location, and service, I would most definitely recommend this motel. Its great for families or travelers on a budget! You get more than you pay for!

I was told a California company bought franchises to for Howard Johnson and Ramada at adjoining locations in Branson. The precious hotel sign was still in place. A vinyl banner was well below the large sign. Below the banner was one for Ramada. I feel sorry for folks in moderate to heavy traffic who drove past the hotels, not seeing the banners. I drove past it four times, looking at the large hotel sign.
Only one clerk for check-in for both hotels. One operating indoor pool and one breakfast area were available for both hotels.Folks staying at Ramada were severely inconvenienced.
The room was very nice, bed was comfortable, television worked well and shower was fantastic.
Staff we met were reception and breakfast. Fine folks, professional and friendly.
I hope the sign situation is resolved quickly, before the "season" begins.
We are interested in staying there next year.

It was an "ok" hotel for a quick stop. It definitely does not get cleaned like it should be. There was a baby bottle under the bed and then in another room there was hair left in the bathroom shower on the wall.

When i arrived entry was nice the rest was not front desk sent me a door that wouldnt unlock and she didn't activate my room cards.. had to truck my 2 kids and bags back and forth twice.
Tried to call and message hotel quit a few times to lwt them know we woold be late. They over booked room and put us across from pool place was dirty, and just eww.. way different than online pics.

Hallways were dirty and looked outdated. Trash and dirt along the hall. Breakfast was not good. We only ate once due to finding hair in the sausage. No eggs or anything else aside from biscuits.
We stayed in the three bed room which was big. The mattresses however, are outdated. They were also stained. The bathroom smelled of dry urine. Water pressure in the shower was not good.
I guess it was off season (third week of March) because there was no room service. They just restocked the toilet paper and towels. That might also be why the hallways looked dirty.
Employees were nice though. Picture is of hallway where you can see a hairball on the bottom right of picture. I couldn’t find the others I took.

Get to our room and the key card was not working. Tried again and it wasn't working again. It wasn't the key card. It was the key machine on the door that wasn't working. So we cancelled our room.

Absolutely awful. First time we tried to check in they said it’d be four or five before we could check in instead of the 3pm. Went to lunch and came back to try for a second time. Waited an hour to get checked in finally. They’re running two hotels out of one office. While there they’d put two people in the same room. Couldn’t find our reservation or anyone else’s. Got to roooms and one didn’t have ac. The other had happy time jets all over the bed skirt. Tried to call the office and no one would answer. Tried to go to office and the doors had been locked. Forced to stay in the worst hotel ever. Don’t go here yall

Was so displease tried leaving 10 mins after checking in and they refused to give me confirmation of me checking or saying they couldn’t do it so we left and booked else where. The linen was still stained and the indoor pool was down for maintenance and didn’t disclose that till after we checked in.

Overall it was pretty good for the price. The rooms were clean and spacious! The indoor pool was closed and they didn’t serve breakfast like we thought. They closed it because “No one came”. Other than that it was fine.

Staff was very friendly. It was very easy to find parking, because the hotel seemed mostly understaffed for the off-season. I was mildly unhappy because i had to walk quite a ways to my room from where i parked, even though the hotel was largely empty. The hotel was clean and well-kept. Thats mostly whats important!

It’s not bad for the price. Pictures look a whole lot better than the actual condition of the rooms. The hotel emphasized that they have a heated indoor pool, but only 1 out of 5 in our family dared to get in. It’s cold!

On the surface, the room looked clean. There was dirt around the furniture, walls, and bed. Leftover dirty cups on the bottom shelf of the nightstand. We did a quick clean ourselves, considering the price of the room, it didn’t surprise me. I would chalk the uncleanness of the room up to an individual rather than reflection on management.
The front desk staff were nice, the pool was great for the kids, and the continental breakfast was good.

I have stayed before and it was great. This time stuck in a different building room smelt funny almost sure there has been pets I am allergic to dogs and I was so flared up and congested. The mattresses on the bed seem very old and extremely uncomfortable. The blow dryer was busted the curtain rod for the shower was loose. Had a hard time opening our room door E115 don’t recommend had to slam it to shut I’m sure the neighbors didn’t appreciate it. You could feel the cold air coming in so when the neighbor was smoking outside you smelt it all. Pool said it was heated but did not feel it. Staff is pleasant breakfast good. Room was just horrible.

Unfortunately we didn’t have a pleasant experience this time. When we got there we had to wait for them to get back to the office to check us in.. which was ok.. it only took them about 5 mins to get there.. but then when we got to our room the bathroom hadn’t been cleaned.. had it not been for the fact that my kids were sleepy and it was 8 o’clock I would have demanded to be moved.. instead I just cleaned the mess.. there was poop on the toilet… hair and used soap bars in the bathroom and used shampoo bags on the floor and the air conditioner/heater would not stay on. It really was an unpleasant time. Very sad because we’ve always liked this motel… however we won’t be back.

When we arrived we were told we'd be staying next door at a different property. When i questioned them i was told Expedia doesn't clarify there are two properties, even though all the pictures are actually only one property. They explained Southern Oaks is premium room's and the "next door" property isn't. Because we wanted in ondoor pool we had picked Southern Oaks just for that reason they agreed to upgrade our room for free. The upgraded room is filthy and smells horrible. Towels and sheets stained,toothpaste in the sink,alarm clock is broken. The "heated " indoor pool was cold and unusable.

I didn't like the of the bath tub while showering the tub filled up with water and left rings around the tub. I have respect for the Check in call and keys being left in overnight box for late arrivals.

Ist red flag is they couldnt find reservation, had to bring it all up on phone and show them. Room very old, bed was SUPER uncomfortable, springs poking everywhere. The toilet ran every 15 min all night but the kicker is we had a person try and get into our room with a key twice! Went to front desk and they said yeah sorry about that it was the cleaning lady, we have that your room wasnt reserved and needed to be cleaned....uh noone is gonna be cleaning a room and running a vacuum at almost 10 pm! Would never recommend to stay here.

This is the review I left. We did end up leaving and stayed somewhere else for the remainder of our trip.
We are currently staying at your Branson location. I didn't read reviews until we arrived and let's just say they aren't good but I didn't think much about it until I went to the bathroom and a roach was crawling by the tub. I have extreme paranoia when it comes to bugs and the fear of taking them home with me haunts me. I started looking around at things. The floor is disgusting. There we a couple dead roaches under the TV stand. Under our bed was filthy!! I have pictures and a video to prove it. I guess the housekeeper doesn't know it isn't blocked off like the other one. There are wrappers, crumbs, dust, and sticky everywhere. Our top cover is either dirty or stained up. I tried to call the front desk after we arrived and no one answered. It is advertised that there is 24hr customer service. We cannot find a wifi password anywhere. I usually don't complain about things but I am awake and my anxiety has me freaked out a little so for the sake of future guests, I wanted to let you know so you can correct it asap!!
I am trying to make a decision at the moment whether to pack up and go somewhere else or just pray hard that we don't see anything else 😞
