Charming Property!

This place is absolutely charming! It's clear the hosts have put a lot of effort into making this home attractive and comfortable for guests. It is very clean, so well decorated and they even provided snacks (something we have never seen before in a vacation rental). Bed was also very comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub as well. Also appreciate that they allow pets!

Great little casita

Second time to stay here and plan to stay here again. Parts of the neighborhood are a little more transitional than preferred but as long as you don’t like long walks after dark, it’s fine.

Delightful home that is surprisingly spacious. We traveled with two dogs and having a fenced area outdoors was wonderful! We will be back as we have business in Albuquerque.
