We stayed New Years Eve while traveling. The breakfast eggs were “warm” the toast and breakfast meat cold. Not sure if that was due to New Years Day. Would stay again, price point was great for what was needed. ##### Russell Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Dec 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff is very nice and accommodating. The room was quaint, clean and comfortable. If you are looking for luxury then this is not for you, if you are looking for a nice place to stay in a budget this is great. Free breakfast was delicious and wait staff very helpful. ##### Mark Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Jan 18, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything was great! The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, especially Jesse. I had car trouble, which extended my stay from 2 nights to 6, and Jesse was nice enough to give me a discounted rate. He also let me stay in the room later than usual since my car took so long on the day of checkout. They really went above and beyond to take care of me, which is unlike most hotel experiences. Don't hesitate to stay here! ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Courtyard by Marriott Las Cruces at NMSU](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Cruces-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Las-Cruces.h33994040.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunset Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-Sunset-Motel.h15704368.Hotel-Information) > > [Extended Stay America Suites Albuquerque Rio Rancho](https://www.expedia.ca/Albuquerque-Hotels-Extended-Stay-America-Suites-Albuquerque-Rio-Rancho.h118500.Hotel-Information) > > [Sleep Inn & Suites Carlsbad Caverns Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Carlsbad-Hotels-Sleep-Inn-Suites.h10100831.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Belen NM](https://www.expedia.ca/Belen-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Belen-NM.h42155.Hotel-Information) > > [Lobo Tipi unique stay at El Mistico Ranch](https://www.expedia.ca/Nogal-Hotels-Lobo-Tipi-Unique-Stay-At-El-Mistico-Ranch.h111376441.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel El Rancho ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gallup-Hotels-Historic-El-Rancho-Hotel.h1225197.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Socorro](https://www.expedia.ca/Socorro-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Socorro.h42168.Hotel-Information) > > [Finch Haven](https://www.expedia.ca/Taos-Hotels-Finch-Haven.h35212735.Hotel-Information) > > [Gilley\`s Summary:
