Days Inn by Wyndham Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"The hotel has several upgrades that I appreciated, such as the laminate floors and the spacious shower. Parking is convenient, and the hotel is located just 20 minutes from Carlsbad Caverns National Park. However, the breakfast could have offered a better variety; I missed having fruit. On a positive note, the staff at the front desk is very kind and accommodating. Overall, it was a pleasant stay despite the breakfast options."
