  I recently went it Alamogordo for two weeks of training. Because I didn’t want to spend two weeks eating fast food, microwave meals, or heavy restaurant food, I searched for... read more accommodations with kitchenettes.

This was a great find. Kinda shabby chic. The kitchenette suite is like a studio apartment, with a separate sleeping area, walk in closet, and clean, CLEAN.

The kitchen has a nice amount of provided pots, pans, dinnerware and flatware. A small fridge with a separate freezer and a cute little single serving drip coffee pot (I’m not a fan of those pod things). Gas stove and microwave meant I could cook and eat real food. Plenty of storage.

There was plenty of seating, couch, chair, two barstools at the kitchenette bar, and a desk chair, and it was comfortable.

The room was quiet and the climate control unit was very effective and quickly changed from cool to warm to match typical wacky NM weather.

There were a few very minor downsides.
There are no windows. Part of my training was night time related, meaning I did some day sleeping, and I appreciated the extra quiet and dark, but I did miss sunlight. Management advises me they’re soon to be installing glassed doors to address the issue.

The lighting in the bathroom was a nice and clear white (essential for cosmetics), but the rest of the space could do with some brighter lights, especially without windows.

There wasn’t much counter space in the bathroom, (again, this is a minor thing), but overall these little inconveniences were negligible.

Friendly helpful staff added to a very comfortable stay.

Highly recommended! More
