    No changing tables here. You're better off doing that in your vehicle. There are plenty of stalls for men/women.

    Pretty nice for a rest area along on I-10 serving westbound traffic. It's super hot and super sunny…read morehere and there is just about no shade. However, there are two different traffic loops where you can angle your vehicle just about any way you want to put the Sun in the right place. There was also a decent breeze. With the roof vent open and the windows cracked, I had a good nap here before visiting the rest room and then continuing onwards. One small deficiency is that it is right next to the train line and even without the horns, those trains make a lot of noise. I have to imagine it would be much worse at night.

    If you've traveled with kids (or perhaps, an elderly person of questionable continence... or your…read morecollege roommate with the "hamster bladder") then you've experienced the unfortunate need to pull over at a rest stop. Before you go all Captain Obvious on me, consider the concept: a stand-alone restroom... owned, operated, and serviced (occasionally) by the government... cooking in the middle of the desert... offered for the admission fee of "on the house." Yes, friends, you get what you pay for. On our last trip screaming down the I-10, it was this on an almost-empty La Croix can for my 6 year old. In retrospect, we would have been better off just pulling off on the shoulder and engaging in a little "drown the fire ants." Still, we would not have seen that cool rattlesnake warning sign. Or enjoyed the wonderment: if you smell that much poop in a short period of time, what are the chances you can absorb Hep-A through your sinus tissues? Well, it is what it is. Don't drink so much water next time, or try to go when you stop at Arby's. Yeah, I know, I don't admit I occasionally stop at Arby's too, when I'm road tripping. I won't tell if you don't.

    I had gotten a late start from El PasoTX-USA, which precluded my stopping/overnighting in helpful…read moreHachitaNM-USA [Southern World HQ for the CDT; see either JEFF there! (It's also a critical stop for East-West cross-country cyclists who want to stay closer to the border with ¡MAGNIFICENT MEXICO!)], so I sped West on I-10, getting to the Westernmost large community in New Mexico. I've overnighted in this thriving gateway before biketouring/motoring onto or from: Silver City/Hachita/Animus/Rodeo/Douglas-Agua Prieta/Deming/Willcox/Chiricahua National Monument/Paradise/etc. Now, I needed a bed for a quick/good night's rest on my way back to the Bay Area, and I often go to where they leave the light on for me: Motel 6. I was lucky that receptionist NICOLAS was on duty; he checked me into the last room available, though I would happily have given it up to an immigrant family on the run [These are terrifying times under TREASONOUS/"divider-in-chief"/(USA)Constitution-trampling DJT]. Anyway, it was a much-needed stop, and certainly met my requirements: TV-remote/mini fridge/microwave excellent bed-mattress/ice. In fact, I lived a bit better this night because I was able to buy a few provisions at the fabulous Saucedo Market just before they closed. I really like this community; several years ago, while biketouring through, I was able to make critical bike repairs on my beloved Doublevision with parts from the Second Chance Lumber shop! This Motel 6 is such an important addition; this wonderful motel is certainly another key element in the health of LordsburgNM-USA, and all of it has my coveted "iWheel of Approval!"

    You get what you pay for, and $70 seems way too much for this but it is a holiday weekend. Place is…read morepretty sad. I saw reviews about cleanliness and bugs but took a chance since there isn't much else to offer. When I woke up, my clothes, which I had neatly piled next to the sink, were covered with probably 500 ants even though I had NO FOOD anywhere (maybe they liked the laundry scent). I mentioned this during checkout - I didn't request a refund or any accommodations and the front desk staff (seemed like the guy was the manager?) just kinda shrugged - he seemed stressed and didn't know what to say and pretty much ignored this. I will NEVER stay here again. One photo below shows my clothes with the live ants and the other shows the ones in the sink after I picked JUST SOME of the ants off of my clothes.
