Wanted to stay at a vintage Route 66 hotel on our trip to Albuquerque - this hotel fit the bill. The room was well appointed and comfortable - the bed might be the most comfortable one I have ever slept on in a hotel.

Clean, friendly, and attentive staff. However, someone opened my door in the middle of the night while I was sleeping and woke me up. I yelled at them and they left quickly. The front desk helped me quickly. They did offer to move me, but it was the middle of the night. Needless to say, I didn’t sleep well. The showers are odd, there is no door, only a piece of glass on one side. Water went everywhere on the bathroom floor. There is no place to put your shower stuff either.

Super clean and adorable. Some shops and food in walking distance. My only complaint is that the wifi was really bad and it made it almost impossible to do work calls.

We stayed in one of the family suites with the double bunk beds! We loved it for our family... everyone had their own full sized bed. And the kids loved the pool. Also, it was a short walk to Old Town.
