So I get into Raton, and without a reservation anywhere. I try the Holiday Inn, nope. But they recommended this place called the Robin Hood (Raton, NM)
Very nice owners, but the interesting thing when I opened the door to my room, it looked like a time machine to a late 60's or very early 70's motel..... I kind of laughed a bit until I started looking around to see how clean everything was. As a self proclaimed germophobe, this place for having power outlets without a ground (I had to get an adapter from the hotel to use my laptop) was really really clean and I slept like a rock. Never judge a book by the cover. Good recommendation from the Holiday Inn staff.
I also got to drive by the Pappas Restaurant (whose son Nick lived in Roswell, and Nick's sons and I went to high school together). Mike Pappas still runs it (Nick's brother). Good place to eat as well as the Crystal....
