Our room was small but spotless. It was updated and had a microwave and fridge. Our room was set back from the highway so it was quiet. It was a good value and I would stay here again. The continental breakfast is skimpy -- just cereal and muffins-- but ok for the price. With the money you save, you can... More

We wanted to hit the white sands monument on the way back from Grand Canyon on spring break and needed a good place to stay. Most hotels were expensive considering there is not much else to see here. Read the reviews and found this motel to be updated, friendly and reasonable. The motel is run by a family, who were... More

The staff was very friendly. I was running later than expected and they held the room for me until I arrived. The room was small but very clean. It's just right for a one or two adults. The price was worth it.. A simple continental breakfast. I would recommend it.

Stayed here one night on our way to Silver City. It was quiet clean easy check in. The room was small but comfortable. In front of our room was a table and chairs and got to enjoy the evening breeze. We heard a little bit of road noise as we were in room 17 facing the highway mostly trucks with... More

We were so pleasantly surprised by the comfort of this renovated old motel. Cheerfully painted soft yellow with bright blue doors, everything was in perfect shape. Our 2-bed room had a fridge and a microwave, good TV, nice small bathroom. The breakfast was more than continental---cereal, bananas, yogurt, juice, coffee, pastries. The owners were so nice, have owned the place... More

We stayed here for two nights in room 25. The lady who greeted us at the front desk was very nice. She gave us a good recommendation on a restaurant for the evening and was quick to loan us a couple of plastic disks to use as slides at the dunes. The motel has a 1950's kind of vibe. The... More

Chose this little motel because of the TA reviews and we were certainly not disappointed. The owners were cheerful and friendly, the room was clean and spotless, the price was right and the motel was next to most of the restaurants that you would want in town. All in all, just what we were looking for. Thanks Chuck & Bonnie.

My husband and I were passing thru Alamogordo to see White Sands and the Aerospace Museum and needed a clean and basic motel to stay the night. The White Sands Motel was a cute retro 60's motel; clean, quiet and no frills. Good value for the money. Near the 100's of chain restaurants along White Sands Blvd and near enough... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights last June so apologies for the tardy review. We very much enjoyed our stay here and found it a very good base from which to explore the surrounding area especially the White Sands National Monument. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome and told to drop into reception... More

From a European point of view, thats' America ! The endless boulevard, the big shinny neon sign at night, the flat building, parking the car in front of the room ... just like in the 50's movies. Efficient staff, clean room and a very fair price, don't try to find nothr place in Alamogordo !
