This is the cutest little vintage retro motel near White Sands National Park. The rooms are clean and they have a nice continental breakfast. We want a more authentic experience rather than staying at a chain hotel and this one is a great fit!

A typical 1950's motel but updated and well maintained. Nice and clean. Park right outside your room! Convenient location with many dining options nearby. Breakfast was a nice variety of cold items (fruit, yogurt, muffins, and cereal. They have saucer sleds you can borrow to slide at White Sands National Park.

A classic mid-20th-century retro hotel with vintage neon signage. Maintained and immaculate. Don’t pass this gem up! Breakfast is conservative with cereals and various bread selections.
