The front desk staff so friendly and helpful. The room was clean as well as the property and we enjoyed the updated decor. Parking was easy and we were treated to some awesome beer on tap at check in

100 years of Route 66 celebration happening in Albuquerque! Can not think of a better place to stay than here! And a nice surprise a beer on arrival!

The hotel is nicely maintained. Kimberly checked us in and was very friendly. The room was clean and no issues with our stay. It would be nice to have a luggage cart as the parking is off to one side of the hotel and we had to make several trips. Walking trails nearby and very close to old town.

Great location at historic motel. All was great — free parking, outdoor space, check in and out process. Only recommendation — add hooks to bathroom and other available wall space.

Label the shower supplies. Also, keep the front curtain closed! Otherwise, great! Location can’t be beat!
