This place was awesome! The staff was super friendly and it had a killer vibe that can’t be faked with newer places. The place has been lovingly restored/upgraded to be one of the coolest places on our trip. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for great value with awesome customer service.

We had 3 great nights at the Classic Desert Aire. We were in Alamogordo to visit our son at Holloman AFB. The hotel was a better price than the national chain options that were nearby. The staff members were all very friendly. The breakfasts were very tasty. The beds were quite comfortable. The bathroom was a bit dated but everything worked and we had a great stay.

We really enjoyed our stay there for 2 nights while we visited White Sands. Breakfast was fantastic! So much better than other places we've been. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Thank you for loaning us 2 sleds for the dunes. Lastly I appreciate all the sniff and potty places for my dog. Would definitely stay again.

Susan

This is a neat hotel and a real value. The only negative was my bed seemed a little lumpy and slanted. Otherwise everything was great. The towels were wonderful, the breakfast was very nice and the artwork throughout the property (in our room, in the gift shop and in the dining area) was wonderful. Clean, safe and comfortable. The location is very convenient for getting to White Sands National Park (coming from Guadalupe Mountains).
