Great spot to stay if you’re visiting Carlsbad Caverns or Guadalupe Mountains National Park. Close to several restaurants and the continental breakfast was good. Staff were very kind and friendly, plus the hotel was clean. The pullout sofa bed wasn’t extremely comfortable but that was expected. Despite that we had a good stay and would recommend this hotel!

When we arrived the computer system was down but the young man at the registration desk was handling the situation with grace and professionalism. It took 3 tries to get the right room configuration but we got it all sorted out. That was the only glitch. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good and the property is located very conveniently for access to Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains National Parks.
