My husband and I were stationed here 25 years ago and return visit with our son. The location is perfect, walking distance to restaurants and staight access to main roads, yet quiet. Staff were always attentive friendly and courteous. Rooms were spacious, clean and beds very comfortable. Also hot cofree (delicious) and hot tea in lobby. Breakfast buffet was delicious. Outdoor patio with waterfall and lots of seating. Pool and hot tub were a plus!

Bright Townhome - 1 Mile to Downtown Cloudcroft

Cloudcroft

10/10 Excellent

Two bed/two bath townhome in the Spur Landing area of Cloudcroft. Easy to find, near the golf course, pretty quiet. Park at the front door. No A/C (you are at 9000 feet) but there are ceiling fans and tower fans, in case the afternoon gets warm. Firewood is provided for the fireplace. Wifi worked flawlessly. TV is streaming only, so if you don't do that, it may be a challenge. Small deck, with a dinette. A propane grill is there. Golf course view. Often some elk and deer will com along. Adjacent...

Home2 Suites By Hilton Alamogordo White Sands

Alamogordo

10/10 Excellent

First time staying at this hotel and was very impressed. As soon as you walk in you can see, and feel, the care taken to make you feel welcome and comfortable. Rooms are impressively equipped and a decent size tv. Beds were comfortable, the shower actually had a door as opposed to a shower curtail. Normally I don't eat breakfast at the hotel I'm staying at, but did here. I'll look for this brand hotel in the future.

Budget Inn

Alamogordo

10/10 Excellent

I travel pretty much on a weekly basis for business. I'm always skeptical of a budget motel, for obvious reasons, but because of the price, I decided to read the prior reviews for this motel, and they were good. I was not disappointed! And you won't be either! Like prior reviews said, the rooms have been remodeled/ updated it seems, being the carpet in all smelled and looked new, and were extremely clean and bed comfortable. In fact, the room was much nicer than most 2, and a lot of 2 1/2 star...
