It was a nice clean room that was quite and we'll maintained. The staff was hard to understand and there were cats everywhere outside the room, but overall it was a nice place to stay especially considering the price.

Wow what a fantastic place to stay. Where do I even begin. The location, perfect. Just a quick drive to the Carlsbad Caverns (though they were closed when we went). The place was small but clean and honestly, if your just staying a day or two while you explore, you really don't need that much room plus bathroom was plenty spacious and bed was very comfy. The lady and and young man who greeted us at check in was sweet and had breakfast burritos for us the next morning. What hospitality! We will be staying again next year when we are able to check out the caverns. Our hot water did run out quickly but we still managed to shower just fine.

Staff was nice enough. Property is very basic. “Breakfast included” is pushing the envelope. Their website speaks of amenities that are “going to be added” but obviously that has not happened yet. The property is quiet though and sufficient for one person overnight.

It's more than it might first appear.

Not what we expected but turned out to be a fun adventure. If you are one or two people looking for a compact clean basic place for a reasonable price and friendly staff, don't be put off by first appearances. There are no frills and the complementary breakfast burritos were really good and just the right size. Only glitch was I forgot to let them know we would not be eating breakfast the second morning. Felt bad when we had to leave.

Not as advertised

I thought this might be an interesting place to stay and it was. However, it wasn't as nice as I had hoped. I knew the room would be small and space would be tight, but wow....one or 2 bodies in the room fills it up. If all you are doing is coming in, using the bathroom and going to bed, it's fine. Not good for those who are claustrophobic. The sheets and pillow cases were well worn although they did appear clean. There were a few tiny bugs on the bed that we could not identify...they were definitely NOT bed bugs but it still made us a little uneasy. I had read about great breakfast burritoes so I was greatly disappointed by only having a cup of coffee and the option of 2 cold breakfast cereals and some granola bars and bags of chips. Wow. Not sure who wrote the reviews I had read.

I liked it was close to the area we needed. Went to The Brewing Company to eat. AmaZING food and great entertainment. The room itself, was not a queen bed, but a full size bed. The room was very clean. The staff were very kind and helpful. They do have a continental breakfast, they also make a nice breakfast burrito. Thank you.

When I first arrived I thought no way! In an industrial terrain? Pods set up for emergency lodging? Then I opened our room and found a gem. Pristine clean, comfortable bed and with delightful touches that showed care like origami flowers on toilet paper and facial tissue. Thick and lush bath towels. I had not experienced this when first viewing the motel. Service was very friendly and efficient plus a tasty breakfast. We picked the motel due to its close proximity to Carlsbad Caverns.

It was good for 2 people looking for a place to spend a night on the road. Room was small. You wouldn't want to have more than two people in the room.

Slightly deceptive

There's a reason they didn't show the outside of the property. I would not have reserved this place. I guess I should have read the reviews to see it was a construction trailer. Yes, it was clean. Yes, the owners were nice. But it was VERY small for 2 people and we could hear the guests in the next room on the phone well into the night. I feel it was over priced for the location (gravel lot) and the actual room.

Inn? No. Portacabins!

There's no getting away from the reality these are just portacabins arranged in a loop. The rooms are clean and cool but there are no facilities whatsoever. "Breakfast" is a bought in burrito that you eat in the office between a computer and a printer! Most of the people staying are oilfields workers on long-term rental. I'm sure they don't pay $90 a night! Poor value for money.

This was an interesting place to stay. The buildings are modular, but I referred to them as shipping containers, because that's what they looked like. The room was absolutely tiny. If my husband and I wanted to be standing at the same time, we had to plan things out. Also, due to some sort of problems, we didn't get the advertised burritos the first two mornings, just cereal. We finally got one the third day, and we were offered a discount for the lack of breakfast, which was nice.

Rooms were in Construction type units. The manager in the office, also in a trailer was very nice. I informed her this was not what I expected and I would not be staying the evening. She indicated she would inform Expedia and I would not be charged for the stay.
