Based upon other reviews at TripAdvisor.com, we decided to roll the dice and try the motel. Much to our surprise, most of the other reviews were spot on. Yes, the towels were a little thin. Yes, the continental breakfast was not the most exquisite, but the staff, the atmosphere, the location, the view, the rooms, the price....everything was more than... more

We had seen the good reviews at Trip Advisor on this property, but even so we were really favorably impressed. Very clean with updated furnishings. Nice little frig and microwave. More niceties than one would generally see in this category of motel. Small breakfast offered in the little lobby. The property is quiet-even though on the main drag in Alamogordo,... more

My 94 y/o mother and I were visiting the White Sands NM to do some photography. I read about this motel on Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed. We spent 3 nights. The managers were friendly , and we had a nice clean room, with 2 beds, a small refrigerator and a microwave. Well worth the money. I loved the... more

My husband and I decided to take a trip to White Sands one weekend on a whim from Albuquerque. I called this motel the day of our trip, based on the reviews here. The owner offered me the AAA discount on the phone even without me asking. On our way down, we had a blowout of our tires, so by... more

My son and I were visiting from the UK and stayed one night at the White Sands Motel after a night camping on the dunes at White Sands National Monument - we chose it specifically after reading Trip Advisor reviews. We received a very warm welcome on arrival and were even allowed to check in early. I had requested a... more

The pickin's are slim in Alamogordo but my husband found The White Sands on the internet and we hoped for the best. We found the room to be comfortable and clean. The owners are very friendly and the rates are reasonable. They serve a simple breakfast of cereal, packaged sweet rolls, and coffee which I didn't partake of but there... more

We stayed in this motel mainly based on member recommendations. The rooms are very clean, and quiet. There is a refrigarator and microwave oven. But: No hairdryer (when was the last time you stayed in a motel without one???), no clock radio. The towels were very samll and thin. The breakfast - oh well. I would not even consider calling... more

We - a party of 5 (3 generations) stayed 2 nights in this lovely motel. The rooms were nice and clean - equipped with microwave oven and mini-fridge and very comfortable beds. Highly recommended for people travelling on a limited budget. more

We booked three rooms after reading TA reviews and were not disappointed with our stay. It was a great value, the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. We were located in the back with a great view of the mts. I liked being able to drive right up to our rooms. Other family members stayed in the front... more

Everything OK, not great, this motel was clean with a good sized room. We requested a quiet room and got one on the back side away from the highway, and it was very quiet. Biggest problem was virtually unusable WiFi. more
