There is a great sign to warn that there is a rest area ahead and I was looking forward to it, but…read morethere's almost nothing at this small parking area along US 82 in Loco Hills between Lovington and Artesia. While it is at least off the road by about 30 feet or so, there is nothing here except three covered picnic tables and some trash cans. No toilet facility, not even a portable one. A barbed wire fence prevents people from easily wandering too far into the desert oil field adjacent. It's a good spot to pull over and stretch your legs, but you're not spending any significant time in this rest stop. A compelling sign warns parents to "supervise your children" as the New Mexico DOT is not liable for injuries and accidents. I'm not sure what that means.

Upon entry there was small trash bits that had not been swept up on the floor. You could tell that the carpet had not been vacuumed well, small hairs found on top of toilet rim next to the tank. Oddly enough windows did not lock as hardware was not even close to being installed correctly. I'm glad we were on the second floor. Front GSA was very nice and lobby was well kept and clean. Front sliding doors had issues opening as they were slow and almost had to grab them and pull apart it seemed.

This was the worst experience I've ever had at a hotel. I will put my complaints in list form so…read moreit's easier to absorb. -The bathroom smelled like sewage as soon as I walked in. -The couches had stains on them (bodily fluid) -The toilet had trouble flushing. I had to wait for the water to stop running and I got lucky if it flushed. -The floors were unswept and carpets not vacuumed. -There was body hair in the sink and the shower. -Blood on the towels. -Everyone who worked here acted like they didn't want to be on this earth. -The fridge and microwave were both dirty inside. -I got itchy from what I hope was just the laundry detergent they use. -There must be something wrong with the plumbing throughout the hotel because when I woke up, my whole room smelled like a public restroom. -Open boxes of pillows outside the back door (I really hope they are not being used, as they are sitting out in the sun with probable bug activity, maybe that's why I was itchy when I slept) -They do have a nice Keurig. I know that because I used it to brew coffee to get rid of the smell in the room. I don't even drink coffee. -The water in the lobby tasted like soap and left a film on my tongue. -Kids running up and down hallway and screaming at 10:30 PM -I woke up with a bug bite on my arm. -The manager was yelling at the front desk girls because they did something wrong (I'm not sure of the context) -The breakfast was disgusting. The eggs were dry and burnt, the gravy for the biscuits was watery and jello-like at the same time, and the biscuits were like hockey pucks. Breakfasts at hotels are important to me, because it's usually the only hot meal I eat in a week. So I'm sitting here figuring out what kind of cold breakfast I can settle for. -And the thing that made me extra upset was there was no postcard on the desk in the room that every single other Comfort Suites I've ever been to has had. That's the main reason I stayed here and looked past the bad reviews, was to get my Roswell postcard. And they couldn't even deliver on that. I know better for next time. He later on barked at me "I haven't had those postcards in four years." That right there says a LOT about an owner. He doesn't even care to be welcoming with the simple touch of a paper souvenir, as long as he can save a few bucks. I'm extremely upset, because this was at best a $60 room, not a $100 room. You're not supposed to be restless, hungry and disturbed on vacation. The owner/manager threatened to sue me because I filmed his voice while he was making me very uncomfortable and being extremely unprofessional. He then came out into the lobby and took a picture of me while I was standing in the breakfast room. When he was speaking to me with the flippant attitude he had, I could see another guest behind him looking genuinely scared and confused. I didn't look around at the rest of the breakfast area, but I'm sure they were disturbed as well. Maybe they will write a review as well. He told me he would reach out to Expedia and get my review deleted because it's all false. He said I should have requested a refund before posting the review. Technically I could sue him for emotional distress and feeling threatened when he got up in my face and took my photograph (I could get the security footage as proof), but I will move on with my vacation and hope that life gets better for him. Karma will work in her own time. (I called the police department to ask if I was allowed to film and they told me that filming a conversation is LEGAL in New Mexico because it's a one-party state. I just wanted to share that information before you end up wasting your time and money trying to sue someone)

They stuck our 5 year old's name on customer of the day and allowed her to spin the prize wheel each day we stayed. She was thrilled to win a koozie. Hotel lobby was clean and they had candy, water bottles, and fresh cookies out for guests to enjoy. You could borrow an appliance for your room if needed. There was a little food pantry stocked to the brim if you needed a quick snack or forgot to pack something. Yogurt, apples, oranges, coffee, water, and hot cocoa were all free. 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. Around back, there was a dog walk area stocked with poop bags and a trash can. To my surprise, there were also children's toys-- two cozy coupes, a slide, some scooters, and balance bikes. These people really have it together! If we ever go back to Carlsbad, I'd stay there again!
