Cons:

This is minor, but the faucet water wasn't clear, so we didn't drink it. I'm sure it was a temp situation.

Pros:

The retro setting is a fun entry/exit point for our time in New Mexico.

Cons:

The pool is kid friendly, which is great, but could have used a cleaning.

Boutique lovely stay
Pros:

We loved this hotel. Very unique boutique hotel. Quite spacious rooms. Well thought out atmosphere and vibe. Then were very accommodating to use, with our trailer and let us park it for the day while we spent time in town before we left out of town. Highly recommend staying here.

Only down fall sauna didn't work not did the fire place in the hot tub area but we didn’t ask to get it working. Nor did we care too much the whole place is amazing without it.

it's known this is a Rt. 66 throwback motel but many little things caused this review.
Pros:

sq footage. the bed was great.

Cons:

bathroom drains took too long to empty. kitchen had no counter room. half of the light bulbs were out. mold was seen around windows (mostly outside of crank out windows). no elevators, bad for an 80 year old.
dirty windows.

Excellent property location wise. Needs more attention to room service and customer care. Food is basic on site through
Pros:

The bar, the music, the decor and the staff! The environment was peaceful and lovely to sit among the trees and birds.

Cons:

Room service was not available to change sheets or clean unless you specifically asked then the day before. Even then, I am not sure it would have been done in time. Rooms need more light.

It was mediocre and I will stay somewhere else when I travel to Santa Fe.
Pros:

Pool, courtyard, bed, location

Cons:

Coffee maker was impossible to figure out.
Television was also impossible to figure out without help.
Bathtub did not drain correctly.
The room in general was not that clean.

Not my kinda place
Pros:

It was quirky if you like that kinda thing. Staff didn't really seem to care.

Cons:

Does not match the pictures, very old and not updated. Only one Coffee choice in lobby. Food truck wasnt opened for breakfast as advertised and nobody knew why. Loudest AC unit.Took us forever to find the hot tub and sauna. Pool was very busy so some people liked staying there, just not us.

I would not return and do not recommend.
Cons:

When we walked into the room, there was an odor of mustiness. When we turned on the bathroom sink milky water came out. We went to the front desk to ask about the color of the water and we’re told “this is normal for Santa Fe“ They did send a workman to check it out, who said no this is not normal. We were asked if we wanted to change rooms which we did. The second room did not smell as musty, but the water was still milky, possibly not quite as bad as the first room. This room had an AC unit in the bathroom, which made the bathroom very cold, but the rest of the room was not comfortably air-conditioned, and it was 100 degrees outside. We complained again, and they did bring in a fan which helped. The hotel lobby smelled of smoke. The entire place was old and in need of refurbishing.
