We arrived without reservations and I needed beds for 6 adults. The staff set us up with adjoining rooms that were more than sufficient. The rooms were freshly remodeled and all appliances were like new. I was so pleased with the cleanliness of the entire property. The staff was friendly and efficient. I would give them 6 stars if I could. It will be my place to stay when visiting Red River N.M. We loved our stay!!!

We stayed in the 2 king suite that has been newly remodeled. It was very clean. The beds were very comfortable. The rainfall multi-headed shower was amazing! The kitchen is ready to use with dishes, cups and utensils. There is active remodeling happening now, but it did not affect our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful. Can't wait to stay again!

This is an older property that is renovating. The room I stayed in was a newer remodel and was fantastic. Clean and full of modern conveniences. And possibly, the best shower in my life. It will be the first place I look on my next trip to the area.
