I stayed here once before prior to 2020 and it was great....the renovated backyard was very nice and relaxing. Loved the murals on the fence! Bed was a bit hard for my taste, so I went and purchased a mattress topper, and all was fine. I come to ABQ on business and will plan to stay here again for sure!

Fabulous ,clean, great location, really great backyard, There is a mural on the back wall by a local artist. It is really something. Makes that backyard area extra special. WiFi was fast enough to stream and the hosts were super communicative , helpful hosts. They made everything seamless and were available immediately with any questions. Great WD , fridge was really clean and so was everything else. If only they allowed dogs for us responsible dog people! I’d stay for months My quickie trip to my favorite place on the planet, beautiful New Mexico. Thanks again to my welcoming hosts. Stay well !
