Rooms are very small. No central heat/ac. Very old wall thermostat controls heater. Separate unit built into wall covers AC. Poor insulation. Parking area is dirt/gavel. Don’t let the pictures fool you - this is kind of a dump.

The bar and hotel are beautiful. The staff were great and so were the cocktails. The only reason this isn't a 5 star for me, is the king standard room was pretty basic for the price. I love that the hotel is older and they've kept the charm but the room we stayed in was pretty dinged up.

This place has a lot of character! I wasn’t really sure what to expect, but this place is adorable. The decor and the atmosphere is very welcoming and cute. The bar and the food truck obviously are a plus as well. The staff was pretty friendly and I honestly enjoyed our stay.

The stay was great! It’s a renovated motor court right on Cerrillos. Cozy and just fine for the price. The upcharge for parking upon check-in is ridiculous and should be embarrassing to the owners. Makes it clear from the start that you’re part of a grift. Three stars seems fair to me.
