When I checked in the man working at the front desk alerted me of a dust storm approaching the next day at noon. We were able to alter our trip plans and went earlier to White Sands NP. Had he not let me know, we would have arrived in the afternoon for the sunset as planned and we would have been miserable. We had already finished hiking and we were able to take cover for the storm. We enjoyed our stay and we hope to get back this way soon.

Did not enjoy the room. Blackout curtains were inefficient, didn't close properly. Too much light just outside the room. Smoker next door. Excessive noise at night from multiple neighbors during spring break.

Brilliant stay!

Really lovely stay, we had such a friendly welcome when we arrived and had a great sized room that was super clean. As it was out of season, it wasn’t too busy so was nice and quiet plus easy to park! Great location too, plenty of restaurants and fast food places nearby and it was a short distance from White Sands NP so perfect for us.

Very dated. Curtains didn’t close properly so light coming in at top from outside. Can’t comment on the breakfast as had to wait 20 min for table even though three were empty but not yet cleaned. Once seated we waited another 20 min and still no one came to offer us coffee or tea or take our order. We finally left as had to get on the road. Not sure providing breakfast cooked to order is such a good idea when you only have one waiter!
