A Grand Dame of Accommodations
This is an older property, but well kept on the outside and the surrounding grounds are also manicured. The garden patio could make for a great breakfast area if exploited for that use. One elevator to the tower is very slow to open. Almost like watching paint dry. The rooms are adequately sized. Bathrooms have been renovated. The beds are platform framed. This is low to the ground and lack a boxspring. The sides stick out and you can bang the side of your foot or your leg getting in and out. Mattresses also seemed well used. I like this hotel because it has character and many pictures of Albuquerque in its western days. It kind of reminds me of the Orleans in Vegas, an older property with good bones. A quick breakfast bar with simple egg sandwiches and coffee in the morning would also be a convenience. Onsite valet parking is a plus. And friendly staff. A few changes as mentioned would make it a better stay. Proximity to old town and Sawmill market make it a good walking area. I would stay again.
