6/10 Good

Really great place for the price.
Gregory, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A charming and pleasant visit

The front desk staff were kind, friendly, and professional. They answered questions and were very helpful. This was our first time in Albuquerque and thought the decor and atmosphere of the hotel was charming.
Diana, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great staff and room

The front desk lady was so friendly and happy and talkative it really brought a smile to me and my husband's face after a long stressful day of driving so glad i chose this place and the room was clean and nice
james, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent for the price and having 3 queen beds. Slightly older in some aspects and the bathroom/shower was a hot mess, but otherwise decent

10/10 Exceptional

Great staff and clean rooms
RANDAL, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Maybe a different place.

Noise from the street made it difficult to stay asleep. The room felt very sterile and not particularly welcoming.
Sharla, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Updated rooms and friendly owners / staff. Location could be better – lots of folks roaming the sidewalks – but the owners have gone to great lengths to make sure that the property itself feels safe, with multiple security cameras and a well-lit parking lot. Rooms are well-insulated from road noise, A/C is fantastic, and make-your-own waffles for breakfast were a nice touch.
Ming, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not in the best of neighborhoods.

This is a motel, not a hotel. The neighborhood is a little sketchy. Fast food restaurants were available however not sit down and dine type of restaurants were not nearby.
Verlin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable stay, close to Old Town ABQ

Perfect spot for our stop during a cross country trip. Cute courtyard style motel, no frills, but clean and cute.
Lu, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Close to Bio park and Aquarium as well as Old Town. Pillows were too overstuffed and location was noisy.Bed was comfortable and check in was easy
Karen, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel was clean and okay for a one night stay.

The stay was okay. The breakfast could have been better. The only hot food was the self made waffles.

i’ve came here once a year for my anniversary and we’ve loved it!
Mia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice people but hotel is right on main street. Cars racing around all night keep waking us up. Room was the biggest of all places I stayed on a week-long trip and had the best breakfast too. Pool was indoors & very small....occupied by kids so didn't want to get in.
Debra, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly and pleasant host
Sergio, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It had everything we needed, beds were comfortable.
Kama, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Adequate

Excellent front desk help. Property seems extremely old and worn. Bathtub needs replacing. Made the whole place seem dirty and it wasn’t.
Mary Ann, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were just passing through so were not concerned about most of the questions, such as shopping, dining options or transportation. We did really enjoy the couple who checked us in, as they were very friendly and helpful with information. We would stay here again.
Marilyn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel was fine for an overnight stay.
Mary Lou, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our stay wasn't terrible we actually got rested & enjoyed our stay. The room was clean except for the tub wasn't as clean. Check in was easy & staff was very friendly.
Christina, 1-night trip

Very dirty especially breakfast area, reception, doors, swimming pool. Poor breakfast selection. Very busy noisy road used like a speedway
Filthy fridge
Filthy doors

Choose a different hotel

I personally wouldn’t stay here again. It does not feel like a safe area. The street in front of the hotel (motel?) had cars revving their engines and screeching down the street all night, backfires sounding like gunshots. The front desk check in was locked and I had to ring a doorbell to ask for extra towels. They didn’t have any and had to go find some. Just wasn’t a great experience and was ready to leave first thing in the morning.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice Enough Motel

This place is nice for a roadside motel. It seems that the interior has been updated. Nice staff, everything was clean and the bed was comfortable. I don't know about the neighborhood but I didn't walk anywhere. It's basic but fine.
Janna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff was very friendly and customer service oriented! Nice king size bed and the AC worked very well! For the price, this was a good place to stop for the night when traveling.
Michael, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is a very old hotel in dire need of updating. Should not be rated higher than a 5
Keith, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good budget place to stay close to the airport with breakfast.
