The new owners do not plan to make any major changes at the Comfort Inn of Mountain Home. Its rooms are all furnished with king or queen beds, and a deluxe continental breakfast is served in a large breakfast area near the front lobby. Johnson said the breakfast menu offers much more than most guests expect. Comfort Inn's rooms all have data port telephones. Some have Jacuzzi whirlpool tubs.
Regular suites have seating, snack and sleeping areas and are generously furnished.
The Johnsons are both originally from the Conway area. Ricky graduated from Quitman High School and Petit Jean Vocational Technical School. He was one of the youngest people in Arkansas, at that time, to become state licensed as a journeyman electrician. He continued working in the field for nearly 10 years. Mrs. Johnson graduated from St. Joseph Catholic School in Conway and attended the University of Central Arkansas.
