    It is close to the road you may disturbed by cars. So it is nice to prepare a pair of ear blockers

    It is very nice better than the pictures show..

    The bed is pretty small, but so is the room. I would trade less room space for a bit more bed. It would be nice to have some kind of picnic table or patio in the center common area to sit and eat, or visit; as the rooms don't have a lot of space for this.

    It was exactly like the photos online. It was no fluff simple but clean. It was close enough to Carlsbad Caverns that we could get up and drive there in the morning. The first morning we stayed we were offered homemade breakfast burritos. We had a lovely chat with the owner who was very friendly.

    Despite the remote being in a bag and claiming it was cleaned. It was visibly dirty and had a pubic hair on it. But I clean that stuff anyway.

    Nice room, it was clean and didn’t smell like smoke. They also had surveillance, so I felt safe as a solo female. Has a decent size mini fridge, microwave and good lighting. They were also very courteous about me working nights. It was a quiet area.

    It is simple and looks like a container village from the outside, the room was a little small but clean and comfortable. It was still fairly expensive. Not wheelchair accessible

    What I didn't like was the fact that I could hear the TV in the other room through the walls. The Wi-Fi was also very slow so if you plan on doing work here, good luck.

    I thought breakfast was great and I brought some on my hikes as well! The restroom was very clean with nice towels. The bed was also very comfy as well, so overall, a great stay for the price! The room also provided lots of storage space.

    It is small and housed in what looks like barracks. But everything you need is in there, for a great price.

    Conveniently located at the edge of Carlsbad, close to the Carlsbad Caverns National Park. Very friendly and helpful staff.

    These are tiny rooms. Two person is too much. No table. No chair. No ice machine. This hotel is more for one person stay. Longer term stay for workers.

    Super friendly stuff. Clean room. Inexpensive. One person room. Forget family stay. Burrito with egg for breakfast.

    For one person this could be okay for a night. For two persons it was very small with double bed up against the wall on one side. No chair to sit on and air conditioner was next to head of the bed.

    You have to make your own breakfast. We ate in the office wherever we could find a place for our dish. Room was very clean and shower was very good.

    Really an original container-style hotel. The owners are adorable and the breakfast burrito is an absolute must. They also have coffee, granola bars and yoghurt. The bedroom is small but has everything you need (fridge, desk, AC....) and the shower is fantastic!

    The place needs more insulated walls. You can easily hear everything from your neighbors room. My only other complaint was the hours breakfast was provided changed when a different person manned the office.

    The breakfast provided was very good. I really liked the breakfast burritos.

    What you see is what you get. If only more hotels were like this. No extra fluff or useless amenities. Clean room, fresh towels, satellite TV, brand new shower, and blackout curtains. Yes it looks like a warehouse on the outside, but who cares! On the inside its clean and fresh and comfortable. Excellent and kind hostess. Wonderful service and delicious home made breakfast burrito.

    The room was small. I disconnected the refrigerator because it made too much noise. I connected it when I left. I am paying less for a Comfort Suites in Dallas, Texas. It is much bigger.

    It was good.
