Best of both worlds! We spent a day in Carlsbad, NM and a day at the Caverns and didn't have to use two motels: this is right at the entrance road to the Caverns and has a fine restaurant and gas station nearby. The manager was a delightful lady who was helpful in making our stay pleasant. Great location, great staff, great place to stay!

We only stayed 1 night but the room was clean and very spacious. They did have a breakfast in the morning, but if you arrive late make sure you eat beforehand or bring food. The room has a small refrigerator and microwave. Bed was comfortable and we slept great. Close to Carlsbad Caverns so we checked out and spent a few hours exploring. Very convenient area and staff were friendly. Parking was great also, pleasant of spaces.

We loved how close to Carlsbad Caverns the Inn is. All rooms have been updated and were clean and neat. The only potential drawback is that the only restaurant in the area closes at 3 pm and every Sunday so be prepared to take an evening snack. The store across the street closes at 6 and there is a gas station across the street. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast is a cold counter (cereal, juice, muffins, etc). The pool area is very nice and is open from memorial to Labor Day.
