Great location — close to everything we had planned and easy to get around. The neighborhood felt very safe, and we were able to relax and enjoy our time there. The beds were super comfortable, and the outdoor space was lovely — perfect for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. Would definitely stay here again!
The house is nicely decorated and had all the amenities we needed. It was located close to family and near a ny kind of shop or restaraunt you might want.
Great location and price, really comfortable bed , fully stocked kitchen, great shower and nice outdoor area. Excellent communication from hosts - we will be back!
Nice, clean property in the middle of Albuquerque. Close to pretty much everything and Aaron was a great host. Would definitely recommend it to anyone and would book again!
Everything was awesome! Clean, cozy home. I love the decorations and the desert flowers. The backyard was nice and private. I look forward to seeing the backyard when the improvements are done. Hosts were awesome and easy to communicate with. Thank you!
Cute little home with so many New Mexico touches. Don’t forget to look for the desert flower in each room. Hosts were great with communication. Will definitely come back. Very quiet neighborhood and central to so many things we were doing in ABQ.
The perfect little cozy place for our family to stay. Everything was clean, easy to navigate and the backyard is gorgeous to spend time in. The owners were amazing about communicating and we absolutely would book here again!
The Desert Flower was just what we needed. We crew for a balloonist and we needed a place to get away when not involved with Fiesta. Desert Flower offered that perfectly. The location was quiet and a short drive to anything. The host was fantastic and communicated well. When we had one cold night/early morning, the heat must have kicked on while we were away for Mass Ascension. We came home to an odor in the home. Our host looked into, discovered the source of the first use of heating system (I’m sure everyone has noticed that before), and made sure it was all safe. The home is clean, functional and put together well. We highly recommend.
This house was perfect for a quick stay in Albuquerque. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bed was very comfortable and the house is overall cozy. The hosts answered all messages promptly and communication was good.
Thanks!
“Absolutely fantastic stay! The house was spotless, spacious, and perfectly located for exploring Albuquerque. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed. We loved relaxing in the outdoor space. Close to great restaurants and local attractions. Highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Albuquerque—we’ll definitely be back! Five stars all the way!”
This wonderful property is tucked away in a nice and quiet neighborhood in the north valley of Albuquerque.It is a safe place to stay and was perfect for my brother's 30-day visit. Being local, I was able to meet Aaron in person. He is very nice and accommodating, and always communicated with me to ensure my brother's needs were met... and they were! We would highly recommend this charming property to anyone visiting Albuquerque, Thank you Aaron and Margo, Annette
Very pleasant and comfortable stay. Very nicely decorated and special care to provid
Nicely decorated and all amenities provided for comfort. Enjoyed being able to sit out on the patio with pleasa t seating. The outdoor lighting was added touch. Kitchen well stocked. Excellent response from host regarding any concerns. We hope to visit this safe and pleasant neighborhood
Property was very clean. The description and pictures are true. Property owners were very helpful and communicated quickly. They had information for sites, restaurants, activities, etc at the home... Came in very handy. Comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed our visit and our stay at The Desert Flower.
This was a nicely appointed casita with two bedrooms in the Griegos area off Rio Grande Blvd. There was easy access to all points northeast, south and East of the location. Heading out to the west side of ABQ and you’ve got a round about way to get there, just don’t be in a hurry and you’re golden. Aaron was kind and communicative, and brought us a sweet gift of balloon fiesta cookies on our check out day. We both loved our stay,slept very comfortably.
We stayed at the Desert Flower for one week and loved every moment! The two bedrooms were perfect for us, wonderful bed linens and attention to detail. Ideal bathroom and kitchen with outstanding water pressure and again great linens. Perfect sitting room with a comfy couch.
We didn’t use the outside space at all but it looked lovely.
Overall it was a perfect stay and we hope to visit again!!
We just needed an overnight getaway for a night. This place was exactly as advertised or maybe even a little better. They had all the essentials we needed. The spice cabinet was well stocked, which was a happy surprise. The property was very clean. We had intended to use the fire pit out back, but alas, the weather was not cooperating so we could not. But I love that there is the option to hang out outback around a fire pit. I would definitely recommend this property. The host Aaron is very communicative, which is so appreciated.
Small older home, clean, in a quiet, safe neighborhood, which was our main concern. Unlocking keypad on front door, a little challenging, but worked through it. Would recommend. Front door parking.
Aaron is a perfect host, very quick to respond to the questions we had and checking if we needed anything. The house is very clean and comfortable. Bed is also great and we had a lovely 2 weeks stay.
