The hotel itself was great and had a great valet and on site security. However, Albuquerque has a horrible homeless situation and they were constantly surround the area. They were also everywhere in this town. I blame the entire city for this. Also, all night long these little "cabron" thugs kept driving up and down Central in their loud trucks - and I mean all night- from 8:00 pm to 4:00 am. I also blame the city for this. Were I a aptrol officer, I would have written 100 ticket just on Wednesday night. I will never return to this town. It is a lost cause. The hotel was certainly a diamond in a pile of rocks.

Hotel very nice and fun. I got to this hotel very late. The area does not give a safe feeling but the hotel is good. Staff was helpful getting these very tired travelers checked in and sent to their room. They offered valet parking to a secure area for an extra $25, that made us feel better. Our feels are hotel great/area not so much.

Overall good, but could improve

The room looked as described, it was very clean and the bed was comfortable. I consider this to be most important and with that beign said... there are other things that could improve or hopefully help someone else make a decision. the valet service was not efficient, they took forever to get the car, but I don't think it is the workers fault, it is the system. They wait for you to tip online before they get the car. Our rooms were on the 6th floor, facing west, we stayed Fri-Sat nights. It was very loud at night, cars, people, sirens at times. I recommend a noise machine and earplugs. The fridge is stuffed with mini bar items, so there was no room for our stuff. We did not get to enjoy the pool since we were not there long, but it did look very nice. The property itself did feel safe-ish, with security on site. The area was nice, surrounded by a lot of activity at night.

Traffic noise was impossible

Clean room but the noisy traffic was unbearable. Impossible to sleep. Anyone opening and closing their door was very loud as well. Booked a king bed but was given two doubles. They switched without calling so we “wouldn’t lose our reservation”. I would rather have cancelled and gone somewhere else but that was not an option. Worst experience I have had yet!!
