    I've been through here a few times, and it's just beautiful. This is on the border of New Mexico and Arizona. When you are driving on I-40, this is a great place to stop. I have stopped and spent the night here when taking long road trips. The facilities are nice and you can't beat the views.

    Enjoyed the well maintained and educational rest stop, chance to stretch my legs and the dogs had a nice space to stretch too

    This rest area is surrounded by awesome rock cliffs. The restrooms are clean and the picnic area is well maintained. There's drinking water and designated pet areas. The noise pollution from the highway and trains make it difficult to actually sleep. There's also an excessive amount of light pollution. Overall, it's a good rest stop.

    Got a call from attendant at hotel prior to our arrival. He noticed that we had requested high…read morefloor as our preference. He informed us that the elevator at the property was being serviced and that it will not be available upon our arrival. He asked if we still wanted high floor per our previous request. We were given the opportunity to change our request so we did not have to carry our luggages multiple flight of stairs. That was very considerate of him and praise him for providing guest great customer service! He also asked if we needed anything else prior to our arrival. We asked for extra pillows and towels. Upon our arrival, extra pillows and towels were already in the room when we arrived. Knowing our Marriott status, he also offered our choice of points or food in the market. Also provided us 2 bottles of water w energy bar. Thank you late night attendant for welcoming us upon our very late check in and making our rest day experience pleasant.

    The rooms are small and cramped, and the air conditioning is too cold and noisy. The dishwasher…read moresounds like a plane is taking off in the room, and the sofa's pull-out bed barely has room to be used. There was a broken hairdryer in the room that was promptly replaced by another broken hairdryer delivered by the front desk. There weren't enough pillows, and the television was as old as dirt, with poor reception. The walls were paper-thin, and we could hear everything going on next door and beyond. The rooms require an update, as they seem to have not been updated in a "decade or two". However, the front desk counterperson was pleasant, helpful, and eager to please. What impressed me more than anything was the call received before our arrival by a woman asking what we thought we might require upon arrival. All in all, it's the little things that count to me, and as long as I see an effort to please, I'm going to offer a fairly respectable review.
