I headed over to check it out because I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything during our trip. Unfortunately they are closed on Mondays, so I was disappointed but we went ahead and started some activities and sightseeing and I made sure to come back the following day. When I walked up to the door I saw a sign attached that they were closed for lunch. What luck! I decided it was a sign and we would finish our trip without a visit here. Then, as we were headed back to our hotel, I saw that they were open and I couldn't help myself. Third time's a charm! This is an adorable little center with a cute photo ops and welcoming staff. You should definitely stop here Tuesday through Saturday 9:00 a.m. to noon or 1:00 p.m. to 5:00.

I LOVE the small-town logistics of somewhere like Roswell because we never had to pay for parking and great information centers like this are totally free. The AC is nice and cold and there are also public bathrooms inside. Some notes about our visit: -The have a cool and FREE photobooth with much desired cheesy aliens that is free to get a mini photoshoot at and a print out, they can also use your phone to take pics. -The "Roswell" city logo, the "R" with the UFO and beam making up the negative space, can also be purchased on clothing, keychains, and other merchandise here! -There is a small fence outside to attach locks to if you want to commemorate your visit to Roswell.

There was still some construction going on during our stay but we didn't mind. We reserved 2 rooms to stay for a family funeral but upon getting to the hotel, we discovered the rooms we on different floors. Without having to ask, the employee gave us a free upgrade to a suite in one of the rooms so we could be on the same floor. The room itself was pretty clean and the bed was very comfy. The shower was a little dirty, but all the design was very new and nice! Housekeeping was quick to refill our toiletry items and towels on the second day of our visit, which was great. I hate having to call for refills! The breakfast had a lot of options but all the hot options were pretty bland. Overall, I would definitely choose this hotel to stay at again!

Rooms are either remodeled or being remodeled at this time. My room is roomy, western motif. Has a nice flat screen tv and an electric wall fireplace for heat or ambiance. Comes with frig and microwave. Hot water takes a while to get to the room but plenty of it when it arrives. This is not a fancy place. It gets 4 stars for the niceness of the owners, the comfort of the room and the cleanliness of the room. This is cash only but prices are extremely affordable. They do give extended stay rates that can't be beat. Pets allowed and nice grassy yard is available for play or "business". Free Wifi and Direct tv.

I was also pleasantly surprised to learn the hotel accommodates pets - starting g at $50 non-refundable. A reasonable enough amount. We're there barks? Sure. However, nothing outrageous. Probably a dog or two displaying their security efficiencies by barking at doors opening and closing. Nothing that any dog-loving person wouldn't wave off. An absolutely amazing experience at the Hampton Inn -Artesia NM. Definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who is visiting Artesia for fun or business.

The breakfast room was a nice size and the Hampton Inn breakfasts are convenient and good enough to get your day started. Our room and bed were very comfortable and we felt rested the next mornings. It was also very quiet. The parking is strange, there are a few spots in the front but most parking is in the back. There is a Chili's restaurant out front of the hotel, making it easy to grab dinner. You will also find a Walmart right next door in case you need to grab anything while traveling. Other than Chili's there weren't many restaurants around and we found most restaurants in Carlsbad closed on Sunday's. It was a great hotel for what we were in town for and the staff were friendly and helpful.
