Room was recently redone and clean. If you can put up with the traffic noise and the sounds of shoes on the floor if you're in a first-floor room, it's a good place to stay for a couple of nights or so.

Our stay was pleasant and the staff was friendly and our room was very clean. The only problem was that we couldn’t sit on the loveseat that was in our room because it smelled, other than that everything else was great. It isn’t noisy considering that the main road is right there, we will stay there again !!!! 👍👍

Carlsbad inn
The room was clean and the pool was great. The one thing is they called it an inn when there is no restaurant.

Retro feel when driving up. Yet lack of property upkeep & condition of room/bathroom made it feel uncomfortable.

Ok - a bed to sleep in
It was a bed to sleep in, nothing more. We got up early just to get out of there. Check in was just a check in. We got our key! Nothing more, she didn’t volunteer any helpful information . It was clean enough. Hot when we got there - very loud AC, but too hot without it. I doubt I’d stay there again.

A dump for workmen
This place is a dump, but the workmen use it. We specifically requested a first floor room. They lied to us and said one was not available. But when I got there and the air-conditioning was so loud I was going to walk out on them, they moved me to a first floor room. That is how I know they lied to me. If so many workmen use it, it serves a purpose. That is the best I can say about these liars.

Okay place
It was a fine hotel to stay at before seeing the caverns but it definitely could’ve felt cleaner and nicer for the price

Overall we had a pleasant stay. I found one used washcloth in the shower and the bathroom had a bit of a musty smell. However, the Overall cleanliness of the room was good.
