Surprisingly perfect

Perfect location, perfect attention, perfect meals, perfect service. Our expectations of a place to stay that provided clean comfort for a short stay was exceeded in all areas mentioned above. Special mention for the on property restaurant that provided a delicious menu and friendly service. This will definitely be our hotel of choice when we, again, pass through Albuquerque.

Very nice Best Western. Excellent customer service and cleanliness. I took one star off on comfort because we are from a small town and the hotel had quite a bit of traffic noise. I realize that’s not within their control.
