Nice hotel and very nice staff. A bit noisy due to being on a main road, but overall a good value. Pool was clean too.

This was my second stay at Carlsbad Inn. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and the sheets and towels were too.
There was plenty of parking and the area has plenty lighting. They have ice machines for customers and trash cans throughout the property.
Standard roadside motel, reasonably comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and the excellent ice machine on the very hot day we were there. Playground is probably ready to be torn down, seemed a bit unsafe.

The air conditioner wasn’t on when I arrived so of course it took a while for it to cool off. The motel room was clean but the mattress was probably the worst I’ve ever experienced; luckily I was able to sleep five hours and get back on the road.
This was my first work trip to Carlsbad. If there is a next time, I’ll definitely stay somewhere else.
The hotel was great, pool was well maintained and clean, we were on motorcycles and owners offered us towels (old ones of course) so we could shine them up after a long ride. I noticed an array of workers (oil field related) but every one was respectful and personable (I believe the hotel staff reflected that) and quiet hours were respected. I would not hesitate to bring wife and kids there, a very safe environment.

Good deal for the money.
Rooms are dated but clean. You can hear traffic noise well so if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs. The pool looked great but we didn’t get a chance to use it.
Pristine clean in the room, comfortable bed and sofa, appreciated the fridge and microwave. Staff so polite! Pool wasn't open at time of visit. Convenient to groceries, restaurants, parks and of course the Caverns.
Quaint motel. Had everything one could need for a restful night of sleep. It was a good experience.

This property was good for the price. It was dated, so some things weren't perfect, like the air conditioner was a bit loud, the bathroom could use new caulking in places and the carpet is getting tired. But, it was pretty clean and did the trick for a few, unplanned nights in a hotel. (we were supposed to go camping.)

Very clean inside. Looked like floors and carpet and restroom had all recently been redone.
