"A well kept, quaint hotel in the heart of Santa Fe. The staff are all very welcoming. There is a nice, small pool. While the bar on a Thursday night was lively, the hotel itself seems to cater to an older clientele. But no complaints!"

8/10 Good
"There were bugs in the room. Not many, but one is too many. A/C took forever to cool the room. The bathroom needs to be redone. Cracked floor tiles. shower tiles in desperate need of being redone. It is time. It was quiet and safe. Front staff looked like they wanted to be somewhere else. People want real half and half for their coffee, not that that chemical mixture posing as cream."
