My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very comfortable, spacious, and clean overall. However, there were some cleanliness issues in specific areas like the fridge handle. The service was friendly but could use some improvements to enhance the overall guest experience. On the bright side, the location was excellent, right at the heart of town close to many attractions. The dining options were satisfactory, with some great nearby restaurants to explore. The facilities were decent, although there is room for enhancement to elevate the guest experience.

The hotel is conveniently located for exploring old Santa Fe, with easy access to downtown attractions. The service was mixed, but the staff tried their best to assist. Dining options were varied, and the hotel offered a unique grilled food experience. The outdated and mildly unpleasant rooms were the main downside of the stay.

The rooms, although of a good size, were shabby, dirty, and falling apart. They felt outdated and smelled like mildew.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location is awesome, making it easy to walk everywhere, especially to the tourist center of Santa Fe. The service was very friendly and helpful, although some areas could use updating. The dining experience was a hit or miss as breakfast was not available on-site. Despite some drawbacks, the spacious room provided a comfortable stay.

Rooms

The room I stayed in was spacious and comfortable, although it had an 'old' look with worn towels and bedspread. Additionally, being a smoking room might not be to everyone's liking.
