Bad element in the parking lot
I really like this hotel and stay here frequently (once or twice a month) when traveling for work. On my most recent stay, I was harrassed by a man in the parking lot. He was irrationally screaming at me. I don't think he was staying at the hotel and seemed to be having an issue with being turned away. He and his friends hanging in the parking lot and near the door to the check-in area made me very uncomfortable. Also, the floor needs to be vacuumed more thoroughly.

Great smaller newly remodeled micro hotel
We were there for the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta and this hotel was the perfect location to base out of for the week.Easy in and out access by car to get to Old Town and local restaurants...walking distance to several great breakfast spots. Newly remodeled with a fabulous lobby bar and outside areas. Staff was friendly and fabulous! Smaller hotel so minimal people noise.

Old town
We unexpectedly arrived very late on Sunday evening. I messaged ahead to the hotel to alert them, but did not hear back. When we got to the hotel, there was no parking to speak of. The only spot available was the handicapped spot. I had difficulty getting the office to answer and we ended up driving around a couple times before we realized where it was, check in person was very pleasant but when we tried to get back to the office to let them know, the parking dilemma I couldn’t get any answer was very nice otherwise and the housekeeping staffed an outstanding job. Very nice lounge available as well.

The staff was very friendly. The major ding for this property is that the room was not cleaned. We found a thong from a previous guest in our bed. the bottom sheet was not tucked in all the way which is why we looked in the first place. We took pictures and brought them to the front desk. They did put us in another room and told us the manager would contact us the next day. The manager never followed up. If the manager would have followed up, I would not have given a bad review.

Very nice property with the exception of no water pressure in the shower and the rundown torn up furniture that was unusable on our patio.
