It was great. It is a HUGE place with many many rooms so they may need more help to keep up. I was very happy. Everything worked, wasn't absolutely perfect but it was great! And graveyard attendant was so, so nice and personable!

The hotel was very conveniently located and easy to find. Although non- smoking, our room had pretty strong lingering pot odors. We noticed the odors in several areas of the hotel. The breakfast on the other hand was good with eggs, sausage and biscuits and gravy.

Property shows its age but has been updated. Thin walls so it can be a little noisy. Staff work hard to keep it clean, great job. No real complaints.

Gross- Skip it!

We were in Carlsbad for a one night as part of a long road trip. We chose this hotel due to its proximity to the caverns. What a wreck! We checked in at 1am, after having been on the road all day, and we were exhausted. The girl who handled the check in was extremely cold and unfriendly. We opened the door to our room and got slapped with the strongest cigarette smell. It was overwhelming! We were too tired to complain, and since we were planning on leaving early in the morning we just dealt with it. The beds were so hard, there were not enough blankets, the paint in the room was chipped. The bathroom floor had cigarette ashes all over it- even behind the toilet! Oh and the toilet- disgusting! The shower pressure was wonderful but that’s where the positivity ends! The shower drain was slow, causing the water to fill past my ankles and when I looked down I saw a wad of hair floating around! The shower curtain was stained, and there was dust and hair everywhere. The breakfast was okay. The woman who was working in the morning when we went down to breakfast was really sweet- but aside from her this place is an absolute dive.
