We liked the tap room service and good coffee in the office in the morning. The Costa Rican restaurant right on the circle the tap room guy recommended was amazing!

Historical motel on Route 66 Nice rooms nothing extraordinary. They did a great job remodeling. No real restaurant on site or close but can walk to old town which is about .6 miles away. Simple but clean rooms. No refrigerator

Fun Stop on Historic Route 66
Great stop along Historic Route 66 and close to ABQ BioPark and Old Town. Property was well-maintained and updated. WiFi was a consistent problem, but we learned upon checkout that a hot air balloon (from the International Balloon Fiesta) had apparently hit a WiFi tower. Only other complaint was that there was no shower curtain on the zero-barrier access to the shower (ADA room), leaving water to go everywhere. We did enjoy a beer at the bar one evening but didn't take full advantage of the restaurant, patio, or pool (chilly evenings). Overall great stay and would recommend it.

Beautiful little motel within walking distance of Old Town Albuquerque. Nicely remodeled. Suite was very comfortable & surprisingly quiet even though the motel is on a main road. Fun to stay in a place with some history, a refurbished Route 66 motel.

I specifically requested that the front desk charge one card for my stay and a separate for the incidentals, and went back a second time because it appeared they charged both to one card and was assured by the front desk lady that it was fixed. Lo and behold, they charged everything to one card. This is HIGHLY inconvenient as I am dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. The stay was just okay, it was a bed to sleep in.
