Best Western Pecos Inn

Whenever I am in Artesia, this is the hotel I use. We have family reunions in Artesia every year and this hotel is the most accommodating and friendliest hotel in town, by far! There is an actual restaurant in the hotel where you get a free hot or cold breakfast served to you at your table. There are 7 choices from a menu that you can choose from and all are a good portion and delicious. I've never had a bad meal!! AND it's complementary!! They have one of the biggest indoor pools I've seen in a hotel and there is a hot tub available next to it. Beautifully maintained, as is all the property. The rooms are spacious and clean. The beds are comfortable. I've never had a problem with anything at this hotel and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone!!! less

Decided to book in the next town and was so pleased we did. This hotel was very impressive. Breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. Others meals were available too. The room was quite large,clean and comfortable. Staff was all very friendly and helpful. We were very impressed with everything and will be back next year to stay here while in the area. I did put a very good for location only because we actually were about 50 miles from the Caverns, but we will stay there again to visit Carlsbad next year. less

Had a great one night stay here on our way to Carlsbad Caverns. Loved pool and hot tub, great free breakfast, frig and micro in room. Large outdoor patio are with BBQs, and indoor patio for relaxing. Highly recommend! less

First impressions of the hotel were good. Nice lobby. That quickly turned when we met the desk clerk. See, I'm from the south, friendliness is in our blood. She was the grumpiest person ever. Said we were to blame for not requesting rooms close together. Okay. Fine. Made me sign a no smoking agreement... Okay I don't smoke. Well, guess what, my room smelled like an ash tray. What's the point of the no smoking agreement? Yuck. Other than that, it was clean. We get settled in for the night. No problems there. Next thing we know, fire alarm at 4:50 a.m. We watched and waited and never saw a fire truck or anything. It was turned off after about 6 minutes. Okay back to sleep. Then at 5:50 a.m. it goes off again. This time we're up. Why bother gong back to sleep? Again, no fire trucks. No hotel staff around, noting. Get to breakfast. Breakfast was okay. They only have 1 waitress, but of course, the entire hotel is having breakfast at 6:15 because of the stupid fire alarms. Upon check out, the desk clerk didn't say anything about our wake-up call. No apologies, nothing. Rude. Oh yeah, and the pool was closed for unscheduled maintenance. Don't recommend. less

Being recently refurbished this is a fresh and modern hotel to stay at. Pool and hot tub excellent, good temperature and clean. Rooms good but bathrooms very small for the size of the room. Only 2 storeys but be aware there is no elevator. Our only criticism is breakfast we were given vouchers and told we could order and it would be freshly cooked. I don’t know their motive for this, but in our opinion it just didn’t work. We ordered cereal and toast (option 7), the cereal was stale and there was far too much of it, my husband asked for scrambled eggs with his toast and after a sharp intake of breath this was agreed to. We just didn’t like the total inflexibility of the situation, it might suit some but not for us thanks! less
