During our visit to Carlsbad Caverns National Park we wanted to stay closest to the National Park as possible since we would be attending the Bat Flight Program that ended at sunset. The Rodeway Inn is the only hotel that is located at the entrance to the Park all the other hotels in the area are at the least 18 miles away.
Our only disappointment at this location was that we didn't have enough time to explore their awesome waterpark located on property.
We booked a two queen bed non smoking room for the evening. Since this is an older hotel the rooms were giant at no time did I feel like I was confined to a standard room. I have actually stayed in Suites that were more confining then the room we had. Which was a great luxury to have as our stay was brief and quick with a lot that had to get accomplished very quickly during our coming and going.
The hotel guest room was extremely well kept and clean. It was fully equipped with an iron, ironing board, TV, coffee maker, microwave, and a small fridge with freezer.
Prior to our departure in the morning we were able to enjoy a complimentary breakfast we picked up in the lobby as we ran out the door to continue on our adventures. The unique part of this breakfast was that they offered juice in a box so that I was not concerned about Jaxon spilling a small unstable cup in the truck.
