The staff was courteous and helpful. The breakfast was great. We were very disappointed the pool cover was on and the pool had not opened by July 4 weekend. This was not communicated ahead and we were looking forward to swimming with family, having several rooms rented to enjoy the pool together during a family reunion.

We stopped overnight on our way from Dallas to Denver. These folks are doing everything right. The room is very spacious, comfortable, and tastefully decorated with the culture of the area. You can park right outside your door. they are pet friendly, they have solid wifi, and the breakfast and service is superb. Clayton is a sleepy little New Mexico town on the main highway. There is a Love's travel stop right across the street. We left recharged and ready for the remainder of our trip. If you need a stopover please give these folks your business; you will have good accommodations here.

Good place to stay the night on the way to the Rockies. Was mostly clean and had a nice breakfast. Staff was excellent. Our room did smell a bit when we got in and the floors do not feel overly clean. Mostly just because it's an older property. Definitely serviceable for a quick overnight stay on your way. Great breakfast!
