The room was large and comfortable. Breakfast was very good, competitive with more expensive brands. Not many restaurants in walking distance, but plenty in a short drive. All in all quite good.

Overall was an amazing stay! the only thing was when we checked in they didn’t warn us or let us know when housekeeping usually checks rooms and when housekeeping came my friend and I were sleeping as we got to the hotel at 3am and the door was opened and it scared me awake. Other than that, the room was nice, the breakfast was really nice too and the staff were kind

Sad
Unfortunately the ARC has gone down the last year or so. Something is always broken in the room, seems like they are letting it go and not repairing or updating. Sad, really enjoyed it when they first took over.

Clean, safe, quiet and comfortable. The carpet seemed old and the room had a little bit of a strange smell but overall very happy with our stay and the price paid.

My stay at the Arc was amazing, the room was amazing it was the multi-room suite. The bed was amazing the shower was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the place was clean quiet and safe. My wife and I had been on the road for about 2 weeks and this was without a doubt the best night sleep we had during the trip.

Think about it before booking
The hotel furnishings are old. Internet is terrible. Hot tub didn’t work. Tv was awful. Old hotel needs a big refresh
