White Sands Area Visit

Trusted the good reviews and booked 2 nights here in late March. Enjoyed the stay, will book again if ever in the area. Facility and room were very clean and well-kept. Felt very safe. Location is central to Alamogordo and a great lock and leave spot to explore the area. Chuck is a very polite and attentive host.

The hosts have owned this for over 45 years and are proud of this nice motel. As they should be. Clean and good restaurants within walking distance. Not a modern hotel but in good shape. Highly recommended!

Nice place, would totally stay again

The woman at check in was very nice and informative. Room was small, but clean and cute. All we needed was a clean, decent place to stay for the night, and this was perfect. Cute decor outside, and the table with chairs outside of the room would have made this great for a couple days' stay. Decent, simple breakfast was available for when we hit the road early.

Pros - very well located - microwave and refrigerator Cons - there was old food in the refrigerator - the AC air-conditioned filter was extremely dirty. - the towels and blankets were colorful so you can not see how clean or dirty it is. - no breakfast

The proprietor is delightfully friendly and helpful. The room is lovely and for being close to the street and shopping and restaurants, I found it to be very quiet. All ground level rooms for easy moving of luggage into the room; thank you!
