The staff is very friendly and it’s a great location for both parks. It’s just a clean place to sleep. There is nothing fancy about this place, but it was perfect for what we needed.

For budget conscious traveler, Karbani Inn is a hidden gem. Its very low key. But he rooms are immaculately clean and small (but the daily rate is also very small). The WIFI worked great (it worked better than most major hotels). I'm just traveling through. I can forgo the hot tubs, happy hour BBQs, spas, 24-hour room service and other amenities that I don't use. I gladly trade them for a lower room rate.

Travelers beware ! This is not a top rated motel or hotel. It is a series of mobile homes set up to be used as work crew quarters. While the staff was friendly, and the tiny room was clean, it lacked amenities you expect from “top rated“ motels. (No blow dryer, no coffee machine, etc.) Complementary breakfast was advertised on the billboard, but upon trying to get that, they said “We didn’t know anyone was coming for breakfast!”

I drove past it looking for a "motel" building--from the road it looks like storage units. But inside the compact rooms it is clean. Lovely step-in shower. Good for sleeping on a budget and convenient to Carlsbad Caverns. Also would do nicely for a single worker on an extended job. Bright lights all around the parking lot made me feel safe and secure walking anywhere around the elevated walkway/deck. An ingenious concept to group these steel containers and link them with a wide deck. Access via center steps or ramps on either side. I was advised not to drive up to the center due to nails and hazards in the gravel, so parking was around the side, close but not visible from the room I was in. Rooms are too small for a coffee machine, so everything requires a walk to the office. Nice owners. Be prepared to order your "breakfast burrito" when you check in, then get there early to make sure you get yours. (some greedy guest took two before I got there so they were one short.).

This is NOT a hotel! These are trailers in a dirt lot. More suited to temp housing for men coming in to work. Not couples on vacation. Did not stay, even though we had already paid in full.

Super nice owners and great breakfast. These are tiny, well furnished rooms perfect for just sleeping overnight. To get to city center you do have to drive a mile or so.

I enjoyed staying here very much. Owner was very friendly, helpful, and a pleasure to talk with. Rooms were c-trains converted into the most lovely "tiny house". Ideal for 1 or 2 persons. The bed was comfortable, the shower was wonderful, plenty of space for all my stuff. Complementary breakfast included a homemade delicious breakfast burrito, yogurt, fresh fruit and other good things. I highly recommend Karbani Inn.

This "motel" is really a well-maintained Man Camp of the type used by oil industry workers. The listing did not hint at the very basic conditions at this property. That said, the staff were exceedingly nice and I did have a good night's rest. They just need to properly label the actual situation on their web page!

Very clean room and friendly management. Much newer than most hotels. Odd "neighborhood" - next to an equipment storage/rental facility on the edge of town. The property is entirely gravel, n lawn. The building is a collection of manufactured homes linked together. Nice room. The one challenge was that the bed was up against the wall which limited entry options-to get in or out you have to crawl over your bedmate on the open side of the bed, which was odd and inconvenient. Overall a good value and crisp clean room
