New Mexico Trip

The stopper in the bathroom sink didn't work. The staff at the front desk seemed upset that we interrupted her PERSONAL call to check in. She was very rude. And I thought we were the customers.

good renovation

You can tell when someone truly renovates versus mere cosmetics; the layout of the bathroom areas shows real renovation. I suspect that problems w/original plumbing led to the rather ingenious way to move the sink....a bit odd, but works fine, and all renovation issues were addressed with the same "fix it nice-right"- kind of rare in the lodging industry these days.

Roswell has, for its size, one of the best Art museums and Fine Arts League gallery this D.C. native has seen. Kudos to Roswell for these gems!!

Serious shortcomings

The space around the commode was so limited it was almost unuseable.

UFO Museum: A bit serious, a bit tacky, a bit funny. Makes you wonder, however!

Decent Hotel Stay

The staff was very friendly and let me check in 4 hours before check in time. The hotel room doors open directly to the outside, it was easy to hear other guests, housekeeping and vehicles outside. The room was very nice and clean, comfortable bed and a good breakfast. Would stay again for the price but may try another hotel next time I am in town.

Nice staff, but pitiful hotel.

Hi-speed Internet is cable only. TV was tiny. Room was tiny too and bathroom floor looked dirty. Not worth more than $30/night, and we paid $100. Terrible!
