Great option
The breakfast was made to order off a limited but very good selection of items. Staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. They had complementary sled checkout for White sands. Rooms were clean and spacious.

Splendid Stay
My friends and I stayed only a few hours as a quick stop during the night while road tripping. The room was clean, and everything was neat; however, the one drawback was the A/C circulation throughout the room: it was not the greatest and was a very warm night. However, everything else overshadowed that small detail. It is a great place to bunk for the night!
