The rooms were spacious and staff was very friendly. The breakfast was only cereal, muffins and fruit. It would have been nice to have more options considering there aren’t many places to eat in town. Location was perfect to get to the caverns. Water park looked like it would have been fun but was already closed for the winter.

Property ok but not great. The room clean but dated. Some duct tape on carpet. No USB charging ports but adequate plug ins. Breakfast was lacking but not horrible. Liked that it was close to cavern but not close options for food. Staff was helpful.

A Clean place to stay near Carlsbad Caverns.
The rooms are clean and the plumbing works! There is a nice pool. The office staff was helpful. The Ice machine was broken and it was hot. However, the motel is close to Carlsbad Caverns National Park which is spectacular.

Clean and comfy beds. The restaurant is only open 8am to 3pm so missed supper. The grocery store doesn’t have much. Just get food before you leave Carlsbad. The accommodations provided everything we needed

Property was fine for one night stay before heading to Carlsbad Caverns. Very close to Cavern entrance. No restaurant for dinner. Would have to drive back to Carlsbad town. Complementary breakfast was minimal and Cactus restaurant only open from 8-3. Not convenient for an early start.

It was a piece of kitch in a kitchy old tourist area, that has been taken over and rebranded by locals. I enjoyed it, and more importantly, my OCD girlfriend was comfortable here. Don't expect a heated pool or hot tub, it's just a good clean place to stay, when visiting the caverns and a side trip to Sitting Bull Falls, which we highly recommend. It was just a nicer option than the sterile, more expensive new cookie cutter hotels much farther away in the town of Carlsbad proper. I'm glad to have stayed in this older but kept up bit of '60's pre-cast concrete hey dayism.
