We decided to find another hotel after seeing room. The floor was dusty and dirty. It was a non-smoking room, but there were large burn holes in the bedding. Also there were hairs of previous guests on the sheets. The microwave was an interesting archeological find, must be one of the first ever made. The manager (owner) was cooperative when... More

The hotel is enough clean, but "cheap". The breakfast is included, but it's really poor. I dind't try the Pool. The Air conditiong it's awful:noisy all the night. The value for money is avarage, but probably it's the cheapest choice at Carlsbad. Good for budget-saving people More

Booked two rooms at the Great Western for a week as we were doing work at Guadalupe Mountains National Park. The room that I was given was not suitable for anyone not drunk or blind...the fixtures dated to approximately 1975 from doorknob to shower curtain ring. The room was a smoking room, which I had not requested. I spoke with... More

When we walked in the place looked like it came straight from a 70s sitcom. Lots of paneling everywhere with decent furniture and dark wood cabinets. The queen beds were very comfortable however, no fitted sheet so the tossing and turning at night brought the bottom sheet off the bed. There was no coffee pot nor hair dryer in the... More

The room was clean, warm, and quiet. The bed was confortable. The breakfast of cereal and muffins was ok. The high speed internet was fine and didn't require a password. The web page stated that they provided in-room coffee and hair dryers. It had neither. When I asked the clerk (manager?) about it the next morning he said "not in... More

I selected this motel for its design (only two story and outside room entrances), location and spacious parking lot. The room was reasonably decent and clean for the price point. More

This place takes the concept of "dump" to a new level. The rooms are dirty, the furniture is worn out and the "pool" looks like it may have been used as a toxic waste site at one time. The "Continental Breakfast" is apparently from some other continent- a box of cheap donuts and some lousy coffee. To top it all... More

We had a king suite. The room was clean. 2 nights and a dog cost us $115, which was a pretty good deal. We arrived at 11 and had no problem checking in. More

Having to stay in budget hotels for business four nights a week, It is refreshing to find a hotel like this one. Sure, the rooms are not as good as the Hyatt, but the rate is reasonable. I stay here several inghts a month in different rooms, and I have not experienced the problems that most people have. If you... More
