Loved the location and convivence to both Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains Nation Park. The room itself was a great size with a full kitchenette. Refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, 12 cup coffee maker, and 2-burner top made it very easy to have meals in our room after long days of hiking. Bathroom was a great size, closet had great shelving and storage.

The property is great but the beds are absolutely AWFUL! We ended up leaving after one night because the bed was so uncomfortable. It was hard and lumpy and literally did not sleep more then a couple of hours. Unfortunately, because we booked through Expedia getting a refund on the 2nd night is doubtful. The facility and grounds are fantastic. The room itself was very spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was also very good. Too bad the beds were so miserable.

The shower hand mold and mildue above the 6.5 foot mark. The beds were marginal at best. The front desk staff said they would comp us bouns points for the inconvenience and that never happed. Dont waste your time and money. Their are plenty of other places to stay
