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.

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.
