I was staying at the hotel while visiting friends. I happend to be at the hotel the day of the 2008 election. The next day i woke up to see a confederate flag flying outside the motel. I was told the flag was a protest because Obama is 'not our president'. Regardless of who you supported i found this an extremely racist and disturbing act and will not be staying at this hotel EVER again. Besides the flag issue, the rooms were messy and the a/c was broken. NOT RECOMENDED.

We were driving to Branson, MO for a family vacation. I have a 8 month old baby and a 8yr old son.
My 8 yr old son had been in a night time auto accident a few weeks before. He had begged to still go to Branson so we kept our plans.
About 10 pm he got nervous and asked for us to stop for the night.
We were near Hunstville so we pulled in looking for a place. The first place was rude and told us they were booked. The Fabuas place had a note on the door stating their prices (which are high) and saying if you don't like it don't ring!!
When the old man answered the door I asked if he had a room with two beds. He said yes but not for Smokers! (my husband was standing outside the truck smoking).
I told the man he would not smoke in the room and that I had two kids that just wanted to go to sleep. He told me to bad!
When I turn around and told my husband over the truck running.
The inn keeper told us he had people sleeping and to leave before he called the cops!

I decided to move to Huntsville and booked a room here to have a place to stay while I searched for property and a house. I checked in on Friday night, left the do not disturb sign on my door because I wanted no one in my room and turned on the A/C as it was stuffy and hot in the room. I went to my girlfriends home and stayed there for a while. When I got back to the motel, the sign was gone, the A/C was turned off and the owner had put a space heater in my room and left it going. The next morning I put the do not disturb sign out again, turned on the A/C and went to get the room for another night. In the office he commented on how late I was out the night before and asked me where I had been. Later that morning, my girlfriend met me at the motel and we went to view property together. We got back to the motel at about 5 pm that evening very tired and went in to talk over what we had seen that day. As we sat there, I leaned over and kissed her and then leaned in and kissed her again. Not two seconds later the phone rang and the owner said, " We will have none of that here" Those were his exact words. He then proceeded to tell me that my girlfriend needed to leave or he would call the cops and have her thrown out. His reason was that I had rented the room as a single person. I told him she would mot be spending the night and was only there briefly until we went to dinner. He insisted and I hung up on him. I then began searching the room for cameras or something that would explain why he called at the moment he did and why he made the statement he did. After I lifted about the third picture/mirror, the phone rang again. My girlfriend answered it and he asked her if this was 116. She answered that it was and he told her she needed to get in her car and leave immediately. She questioned him on it and he told her to leave or he would call the cops and have her thrown out. She hung up on him. About 10 minutes later a police officer knocked on my door and I invited him in and we explained everything to him. He agreed that the owner could not make her leave and said he would have a talk with him. The owner left us alone after that and about 30 minutes later, after putting the sign on the door again and turning on the A/C, we went to dinner. That night when I got back to my room, the sign was still there, but the A/C was off and the door left unlocked. I found this man to be extremely rude, and very nosy. He asked questions he had no right to ask, and entered my room even though he knew he was not wanted. How embarrassing it was to have to speak to the police and deal with that kind of mess because I chose to stop at my motel room to rest and clean up before we went to dinner.

"My family has an eighty year friendship with the Faubus family who no longer is associated with this motel. The current owner needs to remove the Faubus name and the picture of the late Governor Faubus from their office. The rooms are marginally clean, the owner is extremely rude (leaving nasty notes in the room what not to touch), the check out time is 10:00 am which created a huge hardship for my family that was there for a funeral. The owner refused to make any concession even though we had checked in at almost 9:00pm the night before. When asked why the checkout was so early the owner told me it was because, "We don't have south-of-the-border people to clean their rooms, we do it ourselves." We will never stay at this motel again."
