Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel exceeded my expectations in many ways. The rooms were surprisingly spacious for our group of 4 and had a unique mural that added to the southwestern vibe. Despite the strong chlorine smell, presumably from the pool, the top-quality equipment like the rowing machine was a nice touch. The service was exceptional with unbelievably courteous and friendly staff who were patient, attentive, and knowledgeable. The location, on the outskirts of town, was perfect for a relaxing stay away from the downtown hustle. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the best breakfast of the week. Overall, a great value for money with some minor cons to consider.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, while clean and compact, lacked timely servicing in the late afternoon. The service stood out with exceptional staff members like Joshua, Tarlene, and the amazing bartender Stephen Montoya. The location was convenient for accessing downtown Taos and the surrounding attractions, despite some issues with weeds in the pool area. The dining experience was solid, especially with a fair-priced breakfast option included. However, there were some aspects that could be improved to enhance the overall experience.
The hotel's location was convenient, with plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. The rooms were luxurious and impeccably clean, offering a premium bathroom design. The service was a mix of helpfulness and rudeness, but we received excellent insights from a gracious host. The dining experience was mostly good, although running out of food was a downside. Overall, a relaxing stay with good value for money.
