I used Motel6 to visit Roswell National Air Race. About 40 minutes drive from Roswell Air Center. Artesia is a small town but you will find everything you'll need for short stay.

Very small rooms, hard mattress. Beds are a bit small classed as full but they were 3/4 beds. While property was clean and appeared safe, it was a bit run down. Pool out of order. Parking lot was not marked as per spaces.
