"Hot tub was fun and not super warm. We came on a rainy day. The attached bar had live music and a fun food truck. The in room instant coffee was great and the whole place had a very cool vibe. Would stay again and recommend for couples, girl trips, wedding parties or a mother daughter trip like we did."

Piñon Court By La Fonda

10/10 Excellent
"I really liked the breakfast buffets which were way above average in having lots of fresh fruit and a variety of simple favorite protein dishes with southwestern add-ons if you wanted to try them out. Even after several days, there were still plenty of options to try. I also liked the open lounge areas inside and out--roomy, relaxed. Staff were always helpful. And I got to read the free local newspaper every morning!"

"We have always loved staying at the St. Francis. We like the cozy atmosphere and the location can’t be beat. The staff has always been super attentive but this visit was even more exceptional. The staff greeted us by name during our short two night stay. The bar is wonderful, too. Can’t say enough good things about the over all stay!"
