About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Best Location/ Walkable Neighborhood/ Gated Parking

Stay Old Town Road is a collection of four charming historic adobe homes nestled on one beautiful half acre property that is perfectly located for your visit to Albuquerque.

We’ve set up the property so that guests can help themselves and feel like it’s a home away from home. But we are always just a message or call away if you need help with anything at all. You may spot us or a member of our team around the property during your stay. We won’t bother you with more than a friendly wave or a quick hello.

The BEST neighborhood to get a taste of Albuquerque food and culture- mostly within walking distance! It is a quiet, residential area that both visitors and locals love for the historic charm and convenient location.

The best thing about this stay is that it's in walking distance of so many great places- restaurants, shops, museums, and more. Plus, it's a 5 minute drive to the freeway- a day trip to Santa Fe is about an hour drive from the house.

• Prime Location: Nestled in the heart of historic Old Town Albuquerque, just steps from local shops, galleries and restaurants
• Modern Amenities: High-speed Wi-Fi, fully equipped kitchens, smart TVs, and comfortable living spaces blending modern convenience with local charm.
• Cultural Ambiance: Located in a vibrant neighborhood with local festivals, art walks, and cultural events happening year-round.
• Outdoor Spaces: Each casita has it’s own outdoor seating space, plus there are additional outdoor spaces on the property that are shared with other guests.
• Southwestern Charm: Authentic adobe architecture with traditional New Mexican décor, giving guests an immersive cultural experience.
• Safety and Security: The property is gated, well-lit, and located in a nice neighborhood.
• Pet-Friendly: We welcome travelers with furry friends. Please see our pet policy for full details.

Charming adobe in prime location

A multigenerational family converged for the Balloon Fiesta and stayed in an adobe casita that exuded Old Town charm. A park across the street and museums on the opposite side of the park with Old Town shops, restaurants, and Sawmill eateries all within a very short walk. We can’t think of a better place to stay in Albuquerque. Our hosts were very accommodating and provided snacks and handwarmers for the early balloon launches.

Unique property, perfect location

The photos give an accurate representation of the property. The half-wall between the kitchen and the living area is made of authentic adobe bricks (i.e., bricks handmade of mud and straw). The owners have lovingly restored the casitas on this property and kept what they could of the original construction. Check-in is easy and the owners quickly respond to messages. Located on the edge of Tigeux Park, the location is perfect for visiting Old Town ABQ, the Sawmill area, the Albuquerque Museum, the Children's Museum, and the Natural History Museum. All are located around the park and within easy walking distance of the house. The park has an expansive children's playground, a parcourse, a basketball court, lovely mature trees, and plenty of space to walk your pup. Poop bag dispensers and receptacles encourage responsible clean-up.
