Hobbs Family Inn

When I found out this morning about my deposit that was added to my Fee I was very upset but not I have to call My Bank and get it back not even cool

Rooms were clean and comfortable. You can have pets and the place has nice aesthetics.

Basic hotel which had the lowest rate when I booked. Restaurant up front which seemed popular. Rooms behind with outside doors. Not the newest, but basic and clean. Was not able to connect to wifi in the evening. Following morning, signal was weak and intermittent.

We got to Hobbs to find out that our other hotel reservation we had previously made was not correct. We had to find another place to stay. We found rooms at Hobbs Family Inn and the people were kind and helpful. Nothing fancy but we just needed a place to stay for the night before going into Carlsbad. The breakfast was good and included in the price of the room. The steakhouse had outstanding food and great service and we were so glad we got to have a nice family dinner there during our stay.

I stayed here on New Years Eve to attend a party thrown at the bar in the hotel with a friend from Hobbs. The hotel is somewhat drab in appearance, old white hotel which looks like it had better days. The lobby is open with a restaurant attached and a bar next to it. I did not eat at the restaurant but did manage to get into the bar for the nights festivities. The bar itself was an old style bar with a dance floor in the middle and some music played by two nice country boys who did a pretty good job of keeping things moving. Overall I had a good time there, it was nothing special in the bar but just what you would expect in Hobbs. Sort of dingy, dimly lit so as not to disturb anyone and no smoking in the bar which was nice. On to the room itself. Upon opening the room it was nice sized, had a king bed, a little fridge and a bathroom. The room was average at best with very dusty curtains, really dusty! You wouldn't want to open them as you would have to take a shower with your clothes on ......and shoes. Shoes you say? The bathroom was average sized with a tub and sink, the tub was filthy, I mean plain dirty. I wouldn't wash your dog in there let alone myself. I understand this is an old place but a little cleaning wouldn't hurt. The bed was comfortable enough, and it was a no smoking room. It had been smoked in for a long time as the stench from the smoke was throughout the hotel. Both my partner and I woke up with stuffed up sinuses which didn't clear up for a week after we left. If you are sensitive you might not want to stay here no matter what the room says about smoking. Would I stay here again? Probably not in my lifetime.............

This hotel was recommended by Yelp as the best hotel in Hobbs, New Mexico. The outside appearance looked like an old hotel painted white to hide a plethora of problems. Our room was in the far back corner and looked like it was in a drug or alcoholic derelect area. A rubber glove was on the ground beside the car parked next to our car. The room supposedly had free wifi but the passcode did not work. The bed did have clean sheets - no bed bugs to our knowledge - and fresh paint, even over rusted, rotten sheetrock above the tile around the shower. A free breakfast voucher was given when we registered. Three choices were unacceptable and we escaped early the next morning!

The three of us on our road trip headed to roswell, me, wife, and 11 year old daughter. We stopped here, cause of the frustration finding a place with pool. We came in from the east , from Texas. Funny thing is the Best Western pool was closed, the econo lodge pool was closed, and another motel pool, was cemented in. Wow, no pools on this side of hobbs, very wierd. CONS-- Broken ice machines, you have to go to front desk, to have someone go to the kitchen and get you ice. Wore out property, not very pleasant are. PROS-Front desk gives you a coupon for a FULL Brekfast, great deal,not continetal breakfast. WE ate good. Steak house, with bar, and music on property, food not that great. If you dont want to walk anywhere, you have food, and bar right there. We also did some laundry there, you have to pay, get change. This was a Howard Johnson back in the day, no pool, been concrete in, now parking lot, pics are of the former hotel. It works for the price AAA discount, and room was ok for a quick stopover.

We stayed in Hobbs, New Mexico because we were going to the Carlsbad Caverns in Carlsbad, New Mexico. To stay in Carlsbad, it cost a little more than we were willing to spend, so we decided to stay in a city close by that would have cheaper rooms. So Hobbs it was. We googled motels there and found out that most were on a street called Marland Blvd. This is were all the less than $100 motels are. Anyway, we pulled into Hobbs around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. The first place we checked wanted $85. Hobbs Family Inn was across the street from them and they wanted $65. We decided to keep looking and ended up checking into another place for $40. Later that night we spotted a roached in the bathroom and asked for our money back. Then we drove around for about an hour looking for another place. Finally I suggested that we check out Hobbs Family Inn. It turned out to be a decent place. The room was clean, furniture was modern and appealing to the eye. The carpet was decent looking as well. And in the morning you get breakfast at their restaurant. Eggs to order, pancakes, sausage or bacon, and hash browns. Not bad for $65. And if you are a vet, AARP, or senior, you can get a discount. Always ask about discounts at all motels.

Good value for the money, rooms are older but big and clean, free hot breakfast. They have a lounge with live music, restaurant.
