This was an excellent place to stay for my wife and me. First: it was sparkling clean. That’s always a good start. Second, it was beautifully decorated inside and out. The furnishings (couches, dining area, beds) were all pleasant and welcoming. The court yard area was amazing. Shade! And some green grass and all the patio furniture you would ever need. The mural on the dividing wall was stunning. From what we learned it was drawn by the owner’s daughter. I could look at it all day. Kitchen was well equipped. We lacked nothing. The washer and dryer were super new and handy. It was a great stay and we WILL be back. Price was competitive with a nicer hotel but so much more space and peace and quiet here. Never heard a peep from the neighbors. Loved it!

We loved the bear house!

My wife, four year old son and I stayed for several nights and we loved it. The house was very clean, just as described, and had plenty of amenities. We spent a lot of time relaxing in the back yard, which has a nice lawn, patio table and chairs, a fire pit with seating, grill, and a gorgeous mural. The neighborhood is very safe. We took walks around the area after dinner and felt very comfortable doing so and the house is right by many good restaurants and stores. If we went to Albuquerque again we would definitely want to stay here. My son is still talking about how he misses running around the backyard.

relaxing getaway

This cozy home helped to make our first trip to NM truly enchanted. The host is very responsive and was kind enough to resolve a last-minute booking issue that was our fault. This home is well-located and close to the Emery trail, which we enjoyed hiking(incredible views in the Sandria foothills). The house was very clean and had everything we needed to cook and grill our meals. I hope we get another chance to revisit!

Beautiful place to stay, just a few bugs to work out

The property was clean and well decorated. My family and I loved the atmosphere of the house. Basic amenities were provided which took away some of the stress of traveling. At 8am the first morning, we were awakened to the sound of leaf blowers and looked out our bedroom window to make literal eye contact with the landscaper, which we weren't told would be on the property with us during our stay. After seeing pictures of the property my family and I were very much looking forward to spending our evenings in the backyard, as the patio was beautiful. Unfortunately after the sun went down the first night, we discovered that there were cockroaches in the backyard/patio and making their way into the house. Which meant we couldn't use the firepit and enjoy the backyard the way we were looking forward to. That same night a few of the roaches made their way into the living room, making even the living room uncomfortable to be in at night. The property manager did send an exterminator the following day. Overall an amazing place to stay, just unfortunate that the bugs think so as well.
