This place is a hidden gem…read more We got caught in a snow storm on the way to Denver from San Diego. We'd spent the night in Albuquerque, and this was the last leg of the journey to Denver. But then we got into almost zero visibility on the i25 North, and even my Denver friend who was driving the Uhaul said it was too much. Since I was driving a tiny VW Golf and from sunny San Diego, I was all for stopping for an unscheduled night. But I had my dog with me! We got off the freeway (barely), turned around, and headed 15 miles south to where there were a couple of motels. I had called a different one originally, and I don't want to waste time discussing that one other than to say it may have been the basis for Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho." We had driven past The Broken Arrow Motel on the way to see that Norman Bates fiasco, so I said let's just go back there. I ran inside and the nice man said yes, they accepted dogs in certain rooms, and he had two rooms available--one of which I could have my dog in. Hurray! The rooms all face the parking lot, like the old school motel ("motor hotel" is where the word comes from I believe). The rooms were clean and fresh. These are not luxurious digs, but no one should be expecting luxury in Springer, NM. The whole place is rustic; these are modest accommodations, but someone has taken GREAT CARE with the little touches: Folgers coffee, coffee maker, and creams/sugars in each room. A fridge. Little toiletries with the washcloth folded into the design of a fan next to the sink. A radiator that was great for hanging your socks on so that your feet were toasty, but also a wall heater that kept the room cozy and warm. There was a nice big heavy mug to have coffee in, plus extra paper cups and plastic cups. My friend had a bottle of Scotch and the proprietor gave him a bag of ice; we made Irish coffee and watched the snow storm. It was my black Lab's first snow and he loved it! The whole town seems lacking in cell service, and until I figured out the motel had wifi, I was standing in the street with my new iPhone software showing me where to point my phone to catch the satellite to send messages alerting of our delay (literally a video of a satellite in the sky with a beam coming down, a dot representing me, and arrows showing me which way to turn to catch the satellite signal! Who knew?) Then I realized there were directions on how to connect to wifi in the room. Duh. The wifi was a bit spotty, but honestly it added to the rustic feeling and it was all just a big adventure. It's relaxing to be a bit disconnected. It was great having the car right in front of the room, because on these long trips you're forever forgetting something in the car, and you can just run out in your PJs instead of having to walk down halls and down elevators. The restaurant across the street had delicious food. Gas station two doors down with snacks and gas for the continuation of your trip. If you are on a long trip and planning stops, or even decide you need to stop for the night for whatever reason, please visit this quaint motel. By the way when I first called there was no answer; I think, again, there is a cell service issue in the town. Don't let that stop you! Just show up. I so badly wish we'd stayed there instead of the Marriott in Albuquerque!

It was fun to wander around and look at the old photos and artifacts, plus the downstairs hallway with rooms named for some famous guests who stayed at this old adobe hotel during its wild heyday. Food was pretty good. Had a salad and added a chili relleno for $5. It was very well prepared, although the salad of mostly spring mix, a few cucumbers and tomatoes was not worth $14. Partner had a steak--said it was ok. "Seasonal vegetables" were just plain kernal corn. Giving this place three stars for food, but the historic charm is the real reason to give it a try. The restaurant was only open Thursday through Saturday in February, so check hours if you want to eat. You can also just stop by and take a look in the lobby and parts of the hotel. The staff doesn't mind.

Not one of the best hotels ever, but not bad! Just could have been better…read more The rooms were pretty nice, but felt outdated in my opinion. The fact that there was no elevator made lugging everything up really annoying and reminiscent of a certain Best Western in Wichita Falls with a broken elevator (see my one-star review on that on my profile). I was going to swim, but there was no water in the pool. In fact, the pool was quite an eyesore, as it was filled with tons of gunk. The buffet in the morning was mediocre at best. I would say that this Best Western was below average (average being your typical Best Western), but definitely wasn't a terrible experience. I just feel that it could have been better in more ways than one. However, if I ever stop in Clayton again, I wouldn't mind staying here at all. I would recommend, especially considering the state of other Clayton hotels.

This did not get a 5 star because of the breakfast situation today. My daughter and I went down at 8:25 knowing that breakfast hours we until 9:30. There was 1 cinnamon roll left in the container and I took it knowing more would come out with an hour left. Well that didn't happen. I even asked and saw several other people ask about more cinnamon rolls and biscuits and gravy and was told no there would not be more put out. I know one mom with small children was disappointed and then the muffins ran out too. If breakfast is posted until 9:30!then all items should be available until then. Or at least about 9:15 then start cutting it off. I think the employee wanted to get everything cleaned up and be out of there by 9:30.
