Always enjoy the Ruidoso area! Property could use a facelift but room was clean. Staff was helpful and courteous. Standard free motel breakfast; cereal, Costco muffins, make your own waffle, juice machine and coffee. Motel is located on the main street through Ruidoso, so road noice was a little annoying until midnight or so. Nice place for a 2-3 night stay or for just passing through.

Finding a clean, budget-friendly motel in the Ruidoso area can be surprisingly tough for a solo traveler—even during the off-season. However, this property really delivered for a quick 1-2 night stay. The interiors look recently remodeled and have a modern, Choice Hotel-style feel. While the complimentary breakfast could use a bit more variety, it’s hard to complain given the price point. If you want something heartier, the Log Cabin Restaurant is just a short drive north and serves incredible French toast and pancakes.

It was very clean. The rooms were small but perfect for a couple nights for a single person. The only downside was that the road is very busy so you can hear a lot of traffic.

Everything was great about the stay staff was wonderful, amenities wonderful. However during our stay we could hear other people talking from some other rooms it was very loud outside of the room, it was good for a one-night stay.

Everything was perfect and I was able to check in late which was a relief. My only problem was the air conditioner was turning on and off and i couldn’t figure out how to make it go normal and I couldn’t sleep as well because of that but overall great experience! I totally recommend this place anyways. They have a big room, super convenient and comfortable, the fridge was big, great stay!
