"Marley and her crew are top-of-the-line, always willing to smile and go the extra mile for me. This is where I stay when I come to Lava. This is my destination, my friends and I have a saying, it’s like 70s lavish living. If you showed up in 1978 you’d be like, ‘this is supreme’, and it’s such a fun place to be as a throwback. Everything remains the same amongst the Hot Springs and the trains."
