The room was spotless. The whole place had a very cool vibe. Would definitely stay her again the next time I’m in Albuquerque.
The room is beautiful and very very clean. My only complaint is there was almost no parking for regular cars. There are a few compact car spots but my vehicle cannot fit there. That definitely needs to be remedied. There should at least be enough parking spaces for the hotel guests. People who that are visiting for other reasons should be parking on the street.
The property is cute and cozy, I Iove to check out the remodeled motels in alb. The color scheme and theme in general, absolutely loved. The only thing we didn’t enjoy was the super firm bed, felt like we were sleeping on the floor. Overall, great place and we enjoyed our stay.
This is such a hidden gem! Central location, close to lots of restaurants - many on site- and an easy drive to Old Town. Rooms are great - they thought of everything you'd need and it's newly updated. Asked for restaurant recommendations upon check in and OMG the two she recommended were phenomenal (Cocina Azul and M'Tuccis). Everyone we talked to on the property was kind and courteous and made our stay seamless.

The entire property is a treat. I wish there was a microwave in the room.
Clean rooms and great service for the price since is a downtown area.

night manager was good. Initial room had hair and pubic hair all over bed. moved to diferent room--pillowcase had blood, other pillowcase had shoe print on it. phone line from room to front office was off-line, includign cell to front office. night manager said she's contact management about it, and get back to us--never heard back. would actually appreciate refund. bad experience in middle of night.
5 star customer service and super cute room. We will definitely be back. Great concept with local food businesses on site. Also great location off 25 and in EDo!
The folks at the front desk were awesome. A problem with the tv was quickly solved by the maintenance gentleman who was professional and knowledgeable.
We will definitely stay here again.
