    Blackstone hot springs

    Posted by sair 30 December 2010

    Quirky, arty, offbeat Truth or Consequences is the small New Mexico town that changed its name for a radio programme in the 1950s. It used to be called Hot Springs and is built over thermal waters. There are plenty of small motels with their own hot tubs, some restored and some a little more genuinely 'vintage'.
    The town is a wonderful base for exploring New Mexico and the spring waters are wonderful.
    The Blackstone is a beautifully restored motel, tasteful but kitsch themed rooms each with their own hotspring tub.
    The main street has cafes, galleries, thrift stores and vintage shops, one called Red Bone was the best we visited in the South West.
    And it's delightfully cheap, lots of the motels let you pay just to use their hot springs even if you're not staying.
