I'll be back!
Staying here is like going to see your grandma if your grandma was a great gardener and had a pond next to the pool. The staff is super friendly. The other guests are too. Sitting in the central courtyard, you're serenaded by bird songs and children's voices. The WiFi could be stronger, but that's what gets you into the central courtyard, so I was grateful for that too.

Fair but slipping with age
I have stayed at the Big Chili Inn before, 2012, but it has changed and not so much for the better.
The neighborhood seems to have slipped, they DO NOT OFFER any breakfast, and the rooms seem almost sterile.

Novel in the 60’s the owners are working hard to restore its hotel usefulness. The big chili is worth a look as architectural art.

I liked the Big Chili but it is clearly very dated and although the rooms are large enough they need major upgrade to be considered more than a two star. That said, I understand the property is under new ownership(?) so I look for good things to happen for a motel that can be a fun kitschy spot in Southern New Mexico.

The staff was unhelpful. There were two pillows and the staff would not let us to have more. There was no soap, no cups, no ice bucket. The noise from the street out front was very loud.
