Classic motor court motel from the late 60s. Large, clean rooms, comfortable bed. Great quiet location within 7 miles of Carlsbad Cavern visitor center. Some furnishings a little worn and very limited tv service and limited breakfast options. Need to drive 30 minutes to Carlsbad for restaurants, grocery store etc. but can't beat the location to visit the national parks.

Everyone was friendly and polite. We left the motel around 7:30am to enjoy the drive to Carlsbad Caverns as suggested. So glad we did! We saw a herd of the Big Horn Sheep on the way up the mountain!!

The little motel that time forgot. 1960s era motel that hasn’t been updated in a long time. Basic clean accommodations. Extremely limited breakfast (muffins, cereal and juice). It’s advantage is location - right by th ER entrance to Carlsbad Caverns National Park, while most other hotels are 29 miles away. Pet-friendly.

Okay motel

It was an okay motel. No frills. When we checked in it looked clean then we found someone's teeth veneers left on bathroom cabinet. Now wondering how clean.no toilet paper. Mentioned you clerk and it was just shrugged off. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast offered was little to no joke. Pool was closed for the season. Okay place to stay. Would recommend staying closer to town.

Comfy and close to the caves

The staff were incredibly nice! The main draw is its proximity to the caves. For a motel, it was a great stay!

Wonderful People

It is one of the most quiet places to stay, never had to worry about others being too loud or noisy. It was relaxing after a hard day in the field. Also the people were very accomodating and helpful.
