First unsure to make a reservation because of the previous reviews but afterwards lucky that we did and positively surprised! First of all, White’s City is a very convenient location to visit Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains National Parks. We were accommodated in Walnut Inn. The room was spacious and very quiet and clean. The restaurant was very good. The... more

White’s City is a great location to reach both National Parks Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains. We stayed in Walnut Inn. The room was spacious and absolutely quiet and clean. The staff of the motel was very friendly. The restaurant (JJ’s) was very good and the staff was very friendly as well. We did not have any of the following... more

I was reluctant to reserve the Walnut Inn due to the terrible reviews I had read. However, since the recent reviews were better, I took the plunge. My experience was positive, the room was clean and recently (partially) renovated, the check in area was pleasant and the desk clerk was very professional. They still have a lot of work to... more

The advantage of staying at Walnut Canyon is the location. We didn't use the cute pool, etc. The gift shop was nice and there were some conveniences close by including a post office. The room had a handful of bugs, a mound of bird dodo at our door from a nest above, largely soiled matress, sheets didn't fit nor would... more

Just returned from a visit to Carlsbad Caverns and a stay at the Walnut Canyon Inn facility at White's City Resorts. The property recently changed hands and is no longer a Best Western . . . and based on the reviews of earlier visitors, this is apparently a good thing. While the place has a definite '70s look and feel,... more

Decided to stay at this hotel because it is close to Carlsbad Caverns. Booked on Expedia because the hotel's site wasn't working. On Expedia, I thought I had reserved a king room with breakfast and wi-fi for $85. When we got there we discovered we would get a queen room with no breakfast or wi-fi for the same price. Discussion... more

We stayed for one night when we visited Carlsbad Caverns. This property is no longer affiliated with Best Western, and the name has been changed to Walnut Canyon Inn. It's the sister to the Caverns Inn which is right next door (and looks about the same). This is your basic 70's style motel, with decent rooms---certainly nothing fancy. It seems... more

It's shocking that, in the United States, hotels like this still exist - and are able to charge $75/night!!! The ONLY plus to this property is its proximity to Carlsbad Caverns. The location cannot be beaten. That said, there were NO redeeming qualities to this property. . .it is very run-down. Its setting is quite eerie as well. Only stay... more

We stayed at BW Walnut Inn at a rate of $79. At first, that seemed okay since it was close to the Caverns. The 2 queen size bed room was decent sized. Later, we found the air conditioning made a horrible noise and barely worked. The bathroom looked old and dirty. At bedtime, we noticed bed linens were clean but... more

My mother, who lives in Texas, arranged to meet my children and me here, so we could go to the caverns. She booked this hotel, so I went on TripAdvisor to check out the comments. Needless to say, they were not complimentary. I had very low expectations. The hotel was even worse than I had expected. We too got the... more
