Shale Lodge Hobbs

"Pretty remarkable how this place remains in business over the past years. My wall has blood on the lighting face plates, filthy towels shoved in 2 closets, holes in the drywall, warped floor in the entrance due to rain, smells like they used a moldy mop to clean and to top it off I have a science project growing in my refrigerator from the previous guest. Other then that its all peaches and cream."

"They offer 3 meals a day including a sacked lunch if you need one. Breakfast is always on time and very good. They offer free laundry service. My clothes get washed every week for free!!! The staff is excellent and very customer oriented. I feel at home here and the neighborhood is clean and my vehicle is safe in a well lit parking lot. They even have given me rides to and from the airport in the middle of the night so I could catch the early flight out of Hobbs. Oh and spacious rooms with comfortable beds and satellite tv. If you want to get the most out of your money then this is the place."

"This place always makes me feel good, because they care about the cleaning, the laundry, that you don't go on an empty stomach. It's a great place to be instead of those hotels with a big front office and small rooms with no services, yeah, you know from who I am talking about (hotels). And keep in mind, we came to work, is not a vacation."

"As man camps go, shale Lodge is alright. The food isn't stellar, but they'll feed you. And the laundry service is good. The people at the front desk are super nice, really take care of you as much as possible."
