    It was very expensive for not having working internet. The sign in the office also says no refunds if the internet doesn't work, so they're aware of the issue and just don't care to fix it. If you don't have working internet don't advertise that you do, anything else is lying.

    It was clean. The AC worked. There were no pests or bugs.

    There was only a sheet and a bed spread. I don’t like to use the bed spreads in motels. There was a group of very loud guest staying there the same night. They sat outside their rooms talking loud until 1:00am.

    The location is great. the staff was very nice.

    It was an okay place for just an overnight and a place to lay your head. No luxuries or special comforts. No coffee pot in the room. It did have a fridge and microwave tho! It was very clean! A bit pricey for what you got!

    No breakfast. Room is vary old and not updated at all. Check out time is 11AM. We went to White Sands National Park in the early morning on our check-out day and came back the hotel at 10AM. We wanted to take a shower before we check out. We found someone already got in our room before we came back and took away all the towels.

    Location is good.

    It was extremely hot and took a very long time to cool down. It was dirty and in disrepair. At 3 a.m, someone attempted to open the door that adjoins hotel rooms. My husband and I got up and left as soon as we could get out of there. This room was not worth anywhere near $100.00.

    Apparently they do not care who stays in the rooms. Fight Broke out first night and an arrest was made later that night. Second night ( we were reassured that wont happen again like first night) parties and loud music kept my husband up.we do not recommend this place unless you are use to caos. Owners expect you to let them know what's going on in this small motel. Bed was a rock and as for the heater in the room, it was either hot or cold with no in between

    It was the cheapest.

    Half the time, we couldn’t get an internet connection at all. The sign says to contact the Reception if it 'dosent' work -  but that's not very helpful at 3am. The beds had only a thin white sheet and a decorative cover. No warm covers, even in late December. I mentiined this to the kindly proprietor; it's an easy and inexpensive fix, so i imagine it'll be dealt with.

    Big, comfy bed, powerful shower, clean room, with a fridge and a microwave. Few minutes drive to city centre, c.20 minutes from White Sands. Plenty of food outlets within walking distance. Ideal.

    The parking area is a bit small and can be crowded but it's not really an issue. An big RV might have some trouble getting/squeezing in?

    The hotel is along the main highway and pretty close to all rests (McDonalds, Denny's Wendy's, Kentucky, and a Chinese restaurant, etc). The best of all is that White Sands National Park is just about 10-13 minutes, just straight ahead. The lady at the counter is friendly.

    Semen in the shower not cleaned between guests. NASTY!
    • Leisure trip

    • Stayed 1 night

    I reserved two rooms, one for my family, and one for my sister's family. The shower curtain in my sister's room had semen on it. DISGUSTING. I took a picture, but I will spare you. They didn't discover it until the morning when they went to take a shower. Thankfully, nobody touched it...who knows what kind of diseases they'd get. The shower head and the bathtub spout in her room were very loose, and the water line where the toilet used to be was leaking water (someone had placed washcloths under it to catch the drips). The furnishings in this motel (both rooms) are old and low-quality. Additionally, while loading up the cars in the morning, another guest asked the owner/manager for a couple of towels, saying he only had two in his room (which he reserved for four people). Instead of providing the guest with a couple of towels, she proceeded to argue with him about how many towels were in the room...it was ridiculous. How does this place have decent reviews? In order for this motel to qualify as acceptable (bare minimum), they need to hire competent housekeeping. To qualify as welcoming/enjoyable, they need: competent housekeeping, updating furnishings (current furniture is old/cheap/worn)/remodel, new towels (current ones are thin and stained), competent maintenance worker, AND owners/management trained in providing quality customer service. A motel of his "quality" should charge $20/night, not $80+, or they should charge hourly rates. The owners need to invest in their property for the safety of their guests, to protect their property from damage (from water, insects, etc), and to have pride in the product they provide.

    I think the bed sheets and towels were clean, although I found a hair on a washcloth and on the fitted sheet. The location was fine, I guess.

    As with any older motel the walls and some fixtures were a bit worn. The sink drained slow. It didn't effect my stay since most of my awake time was not spent at the motel.

    The room was stylish, the bed was comfortable, and staff went out of their way tp provide me with a coffee maker in my room. I felt safe walking my dog in the early morning and at night - well-lighted.
