Heart of the action, Nob Hill fun, with the privacy you desire.

Thank you for your stage Jennifer. I appreciate your long, long visit. You work a lot. Glad you were able to get peace and quiet in the cottage. See you on your next assignment!

As the owner of 1600 Silver Southeast, I take my guest's happiness and safety during their stay, as my first priority. This guest arrived three hours late at 1am in the morning and I was there, as always, to greet them and give them the lay of the land. I believe it's important for each guest to know where extra paper supplies, linens, iron and ironing board etc. are located in the unit because the property is so unique and it makes for a less stressful stay. I explained the proximity of restaurants and areas of interest to them, upon arrival, so they could hit the ground running the next day. As I was leaving the property, I noticed that the vehicle they were driving had their luggage still inside. I returned to the unit and explained that they should not leave anything in their truck because it's a temptation for break-in. I wish it were different in America, but this is common in areas near universities. In the same vein, leaving doors and windows open, when you're not at the property, just is not a good idea. Come stay with us on your next visit to Albuquerque. I have only rented this unit for a few months and I had two return guests already and have one return booking for mid May.

Truly sorry for the party going on that night at the property. A call would have had someone there within 15 minutes to put a stop to it. The 98% efficient heating system was installed two years ago. There is a switch to keep the fan running on low so you would not be able to detect it turning on and off. I highly recommend guests just call with their concerns. I called you the day of your first stay and you mentioned the party. It was too late to do anything about it because the people were gone by then. You did not say one word about the pots you wanted (I could have had someone bring some from my house down the street in minutes) or about the heating. This has been a vacation rental for five years and my reviews have been stellar. I strive to make everyone's experience wonderful. I have put in Xfinity cable with all the channel because of a guest review. I got a new powerful router because of a guest review. I poured a concrete driveway in front of the garage because of a guest request for off street parking. This property is a VERY LUXURIOUS ACCOMMODATION! No expense was spared. I do not discount input from guest. Really, what can I do if I am not informed?????

James clearly does not understand the VRBO.com home sharing experience. He never let me know any of his numerous complaints until this review he wrote. I suggest reading the previous reviews that are extremely positive. Now to delve into his issues. In the bedrooms I have blackout shades and have black out draperies. There is a chandelier in the bedroom that casts plenty of light. The living room has a huge window with a shade that pulls down for privacy. The room that he is complaining that doesn't have a shade is the kitchen. And I haven't put in a shade in the kitchen because it looks over the garden. It's highly unlikely someone's in the garden, among the dirt and flowers looking in. If that were the case I would suggest calling the police, LOL All the other reviews commented how the pictures are exactly as they found the home. James was obviously not looking to find an historic, restored 1908 home to stay in. Good luck James in finding a hotel room with a chefs kitchen and a lovely patio and garden right outside the door. He obviously has more issues than I can comment on in this reply. Come stay at the Casita. Its your oasis in Albuquerque.
