Owner was a bit abrupt but took good care of our needs. Loved having access to a private hot spring pool. Tiny house was cute.

This hotel has a motel feel with big rooms and a fabulous hot spring fed pool. Our family of 5 loved it. We wish we could have stayed a second night. The town is small and touristy with great food and coffee options. Be aware if you go during the week some quick food options are closed earlier. If you come through the area, this hotel is a great place to stay.

The light yellow floor is very clean, and the two queen beds are very comfortable. It is very pleasant to sit on the outdoor balcony and enjoy the cool breeze at night.

Nice, older hotel, in great town location. Really good restaurant across the street. Could use a table with a couple of chairs inside, but it had a decent deck where we could play backgammon.

This is a fairly basic hotel, but clean and confortable. The person at the counter was very helpful and even lent me a ceramic mug to make coffee in in the morning.

Absolutely loved our stay! The Lava Hotel was charming, clean, and right in the heart of everything. We could walk to the hot springs, grab food, and still make it back in time to relax. Cozy room, friendly staff, and great vibes all around. Would 100% stay again!
