It’s an ok stay. Not too bad, not too good. I book there because it’s the closest one to where my husband works so we can visit him. Only complain is that the room we got tv didn’t work. Other than that it was fine. Close to Walmart, gas stations, restaurants, food trucks, and much more.

The staff was friendly. The room was clean and recently remodeled, but there was a hole in the bathroom wall and the TV didn't work. The bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were small. Breakfast was decent. It was an impromptu place to stay to get to Carlsbad Cavern early the next morning. I wouldn't want to spend more than a night there

You can tell they care with their breakfast presentation. Great choices. All fresh. Biscuits were soft. Egg omelettes were great! Great job. Very thoughtful set up. Utensils available at both ends. Milk kept cold. 100% juices. Just needed some decaf choices to top it off! Room was clean and comfortable. Quiet on our side.

Front staff was very nice and welcoming. The room was just not very good. I had stains all over the walls, the toilet always took 2 flushes to actually flush, my towels had stains and hairs on them, the walls are super thin so you hear everything happening next door, and my door would not stay shut. I had to use the deadbolt to get it to stay shut
