The Motel 6 in Artesia is a 34 room hotel in southeastern New Mexico. It was previously operated as an independent hotel. In October 2024 ownership branded the hotel with Motel 6 and renovated the hotel to the latest Motel 6 design standard (Gemini), and the business has experienced strong growth as a result. With renovations now completed and growing revenue since branding with Motel 6, the hotel is well-positioned for new ownership to continue developing this growing business. With 34 rooms, the hotel is a nice manageable-sized operation with modest staffing needs. The hotel includes a manager's apartment allowing for efficient onsite management. Motel 6 is a well-regarded economy brand with low overhead costs. Artesia is located in southeastern New Mexico and has four primary economic drivers: oil & gas production, oil refining, the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, and Agriculture. It is a major hub for oil and gas production in the Permian Basin and is home to HF Sinclair Refinery which has a crude oil capacity of 100,000 barrels per day. Artesia is home to one of four Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers in the U.S. where federal agents, including border patrol, are trained, bringing a regular flow of personnel to the area. Agriculture is also an active part of the economy, and the surrounding valley is home to some of the largest pecan orchards in the world. The local economy is very strong: the unemployment rate in the Artesia area is well below the national average and household incomes are among the highest in the state. Artesia features plenty of sunshine year-round and very mild winters.
