What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We just went for some cocktails and live entertainment at the restaurant downstairs. It was great! Plenty of free parking available and awesome live music. Unfortunately, they couldn’t take my ID even though I was 21 because it was vertical but that’s the law in New Mexico I guess. Good vibes. We got the chips and dips which included guac, queso, and salsa. They refilled our chips for free which was nice.”
“Definitely a vintage hotel, but I wouldn’t expect anything less from a 50 year old Historic Hotel! The room was a decent size, the shower had fantastic water pressure and the toilet was solid. The staff were helpful and polite, we ate at the Adobe Bar, the nachos were pretty good and piled high and the tocos were tasty.”
