    Yay for chargers
    Margaret S.

    Stopped here for one night before going to Carlsbad Caverns NP the next morning. We stayed in Room 126 and it was amazing. The suite - including a wet bar area - was spacious. Usually I prefer to be on an upper level in a hotel but this corridor was very quiet, tucked away behind the office area and hotel laundry. It was also nearby the guest laundry room which is a great feature. The breakfast was pretty typical and a bit sad. Most of the items were low or just completely out (oatmeal and pumpkin mini waffles). They provided several varieties of tea but no hot water was to be found. I ended up having to go to the lobby entrance for lukewarm water. Definitely not ideal.

    It's not a remodeled Hampton but it is definitely a well kept and very clean hotel. Bed is extremely comfortable and our king room suite is huge and spicy. Employees are friendly and breakfast isn't extravagant but it's good with some hot plate items and a waffle maker and bread and pastry items. We're here for work and will definitely stay here again.

    We checked in here while traveling through the area. We booked a king room but ended up with an accessible king room, which was fine. In fact, it was great. I don't know about other rooms here, but our room was huge! In fact, you might even call it a suite. There was a large countertop with sink by the door, then the main area, which had a bed, sofa and chair was divided by a piece of furniture that functions like a desk and had a tv, which swiveled so it could face the bed or sofa. The bathroom was also big and had a countertop and sink of its own. I was definitely impressed by the room and what we got for our money (though not thrilled about the app I booked with that forgot to include taxes in the total). I would definitely stay here again.

    This wasn't our favorite Hampton Inn. It did the job with a bed and hot shower but it had some things that were annoying. When we arrived it was a little past 8. You can't get in without ringing a doorbell. We rang a couple times and it took a bit for a guy to open the door. Then we waited for the girl who was doing something else. She was nice and checking in was quick. There was no hot chocolate or coffee out like most Hamptons do at all times. The breakfast seems to have less items than most and the area is big, they definitely have room. When I booked the room I did it for one day instead of two. So I called after I booked on Hotels.com and asked if we can stay in the same room and not have to move. They said no problem, we had issues with our keys because of this. The second night we came back to the hotel and we all just needed showers. So we went to desk to have our card key fixed we asked for towels. She said she was told at 3pm there is only one more towel and she gave it to us. Why were there no more towels washed? I have never in all our travels been told there are no more clean towels. It was about 8-9 pm plenty of time to have towels ready for their guest in the evening. I wouldn't stay at this location again.

    Bathroom

    I stayed overnight on a trip to Carlsbad Caverns. Double queen room was $319 per night. My room was dirty and in dire need of updating. This wasn't a case of someone having missed a few spots from the previous day but rather dirty from ongoing neglect. I would avoid this hotel in favor of one of the newer hotels in the area. Such a disappointment.

(My sister and I had visited Carlsbad in 2009/2010 and our meals (steak dinners) were absolutely 5-star with service to match.) I noticed that the restaurant had changed owners, though, in 2012, according to what I had read. The food, his pork chop, and my filet mignon dinners were so very mediocre. The loaded potato was disgusting looking in appearance and I just swiped my fork over a gruesome amount of cheese and bacon bits plopped on top of it. The filet mignon and pork chop were so uneventful. Vegetables were mediocre. We didn't even order an appetizer nor alcoholic beverages, but we wanted to give the server about a 22% tip because she was so nice and attentive, and our bill came to $90 + change. We would've and have had much better meals at Chili's!!! (The wooden 'school-like' chairs were not too comfortable, to boot.) So sad to see how drastically this place had changed....major disappointment (especially on one's birthday).

Our room was clean and tidy. It came fully stocked with utensils, dishes, cookware, paper towels, dish soap/dishwasher pods, a coffee maker, fridge, and microwave. The hotel was also pet friendly, which was a major plus since we had our two dogs with us. There was a nice little gym section which was connected to the laundry facility and pool. We didn't use the gym or laundry during this stay, but our kids loved the pool. The water was a little cold for my liking, but the kids didn't seem to mind. The area was handicap accessible, clean, and stocked with fresh towels. There was a lovely outdoor patio with heat lamps, tables, and a few grills.

I waited 20 minutes in line until the manager showed up and was able to get to me. My check in after that only took a couple minutes. It was frustrating because only one person originally was at the front desk and didn't even acknowledge me or the fact that I only needed the card key and room number because I checked in online. The other problem was checking out. When I went online, it asked if I wanted a late checkout time at no extra charge. That was great because my son was still sleeping at 10 and I wanted to give him extra time to rest. This was at 10 am when I requested it but at 1045 housekeeping knocked so we rushed to check out at 1100. It was a little hectic but we were able to do it. The problem was our request for a late checkout never came back and just said pending. It wasn't till after we rushed to checkout and we were on the road that the email finally came in at 1130 saying it was denied. Again, lack of communication and late responses led to the low rating.

The property had plenty of parking and location was good if you're looking to visit Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains. No issues with wifi or hvac, and staff were friendly at check in.

No water filling stations to be had, one was broken. And one ice machine for the entire property. Oof. And then the gym was a let down, so much space but most of it left empty. Only one lonely bench next to the dumbbells, and then come cardio equipment lining another wall. That was it. Not a lot of options in this area but I'd say it's worth a look around.
