Extremely convenient to Carlsbad Cavern. I was here during winter so pretty much everything around was closed. I was disappointed the pool was closed because it was hot. Decent motel, clean, good value for the cost.

Definitely the closest to Carlsbad Canyon, but pretty dated. Clean, though. Breakfast is available if you want cold cereal or a packaged muffin. You have to go back to the town of Carlsbad for meals.

Classic motor court motel from the late 60s. Large, clean rooms, comfortable bed. Great quiet location within 7 miles of Carlsbad Cavern visitor center. Some furnishings a little worn and very limited tv service and limited breakfast options. Need to drive 30 minutes to Carlsbad for restaurants, grocery store etc. but can't beat the location to visit the national parks.

Everyone was friendly and polite. We left the motel around 7:30am to enjoy the drive to Carlsbad Caverns as suggested. So glad we did! We saw a herd of the Big Horn Sheep on the way up the mountain!!

The little motel that time forgot. 1960s era motel that hasn’t been updated in a long time. Basic clean accommodations. Extremely limited breakfast (muffins, cereal and juice). It’s advantage is location - right by th ER entrance to Carlsbad Caverns National Park, while most other hotels are 29 miles away. Pet-friendly.
