Recent Reviews in Mescalero

The Lodge at Cloudcroft

10/10 Excellent

"Clean & comfortable. Great mountain lodge. Needs some updating but atmosphere is great."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Ruidoso Downs

10/10 Excellent

"I used it for one night, but the staff from the beginning was really friendly. I did a late check in. The room was 1 king bed for my wife and I. We slept really good for that evening. Place and room were very very clean. Would definitely come here and recommend others.and it was 9mins away from midway ruidoso."

Best Western Pine Springs Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Hot tub jets aren't working, so hot tub has limited usefulness. Property is nice and secluded and peaceful though. Good spot for a relaxing vacation. I just wish the hot tub worked. That was one of the main reasons we chose the place."

Casey's Cabins

8/10 Good

"Our cabin was amazing, it was exactly as advertized. The whole cabin was exceptionally clean, our only hiccup was the bed was a little less sturdy than we expected, and we found that it shifted somewhat when we moved around. Unfortunately, this made it a bit difficult for us to feel completely comfortable. Other than that our stay was amazing."

SureStay Plus by Best Western Alamogordo White Sands

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff was great. The breakfast very good and made our stay easier. We had problem with one room because someone had smoked in the room. They remedied the problem as soon as possible. Expedia gave us a prompt refund on the room and a credit on a future stay."

Simple Rewards Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The smell of water damage was my only thing, but once I adapted it was good sleep"

Sitzmark Chalet Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, clean and breakfast was included."
