When we got in room found water in floor where the fridge was unplugged and door open . Called front desk and was told don't use towels in room cro come to front desk and get a rag from him . He should of come to room and seen the problem and move us to another room so it could get cleaned up . We stuck hand towels all in floor in front of the dresser cabinet cause water kept running in floor . The beds were ok but not very comfortable , and the spit unit air conditioning on wall was stuck on 72 degrease. It was very warm in our room for most of the night then turned cold due to finally getting temp on it to go down .

July getaway Texan to New Mexico

Room is clean, you can hear the neighbors and dogs next door barking. You cannot open the curtain because it faces the hallway. The mini fridge froze our yogurt snacks and peaches we had. Really close to Old Town and some good coffee shops, decent breakfast in the lobby. Nice staff and easy free parking.

Nope.

The desk staff was friendly and helpful. At first glance the room looked ok. But, I didn't appreciate the dead bugs in the corner by the floor lamp, the hair in the tub, the shower rug/towel had footprints/shoe prints on it. The water from the sink smelled somewhere between sulphur and sewer. I made the mistake of wetting my toothbrush and it tasted the same. I literally gagged. I used bottle water after that. My trip was short and busy so I really couldn't take the time to fight for a refund and find another room. The pool and hot tub were indoor and just didn't offer a great vibe. I questioned the cleanliness so I didn't use them. I really only needed a bed, fridge, microwave and shower. It did accommodate that. But, I will not be back. Sleep Inn Airport and Sandia Peak Inn both offer quality at around the same price. They will be my go to for an affordable room. Oh!!! And the towels had so much towel lint that when I applied my foundation I could feel the lint! THAT was frustrating. Nice staff. Not a great place to stay.

The exterior of the hotel was dirty and trashy. When we entered our room, we saw a sign on the mirror that said room service by request only, so we took out our own trash and traded our towels as needed with the person at the desk. The desk person had limited knowledge of the area and wasn't very friendly. The pool had a dirty diaper someone had left behind. Not a great stay!

Real life Breaking Bad

If you want to experience a real life Breaking Bad experience this hotel is the right pick for you. Between the characters hanging around outside, the tv not working, the air conditioner being controlled by the property owner , and just feeling dirty while being inside the room this was truly an experience of you wanted to feel what it was like living in the Breaking Bad tv show.
