Not a typical hotel stay

Quirky hotel down an unpaved alley. Truly a passion project of the owner. Very historic feel. If you want an unusual, intimate experience with lots of interaction you will be delighted.

The Inn is quaint and unique. The Inn keeper is very nice. We booked a B&B. Breakfast only served on Saturday and Sunday. No provisions for other days. Parking is an issue, however, this is a Taos issue. The Inn did the best he could.

We missed the breakfasts as they are only on the weekends and we were there during the week! We highly recommend this place!! Best time!

The property is identified as a "Bed and Breakfast", but breakfast was only served on weekends. That was very disappointing. Surely a "self-service" of simple breakfast items (fruit, coffee, yogurt, cold cereal, bagels, etc.) could have been made available in the common kitchen, with minimal difficulty to the management.

This is one truly unique Inn. Amazing hospitality to start with …with Paco…the Innskeeper (and what a host he is!). Then you see his life’s work in the artistry, craftsmanship and art of this lovely Inn. We stayed in the La Madonna suite which featured a deck with chairs, front living room and huge bedroom with Keva fireplace. Fantastic art work adorns the walls and highlights the exquisitely crafted furniture throughout. Gorgeous custom tiled shower in the bath as well as a skylight. It’s hard to describe this property and serve it the full justice it deserves. A very special place. Perfectly located within short walk to the square. You will not be disappointed staying here. It has the true spirit of Taos.

Classic Taos experience - and more so. Third story room with a, balcony and views of the Sangres. Large sitting area, entry with coffee maker, refrigerator and cost closet. Wonderful red Mexican tile flooring and Talaverra surround shower. The bedroom had large windows and a comfy bed! And the entire suite was spotless. The breakfast bu Chef Mark was made to order with wonderful green chili. Paco is a Taos treasure and host extraordinar bar none If you're looking for a home base to walk to the town plaza or the finer galleries and restaurants in town - you found it! Parking is safe and property owned. The entire experience is full of joy, and truly a work of art (literally!) so go and savor life as it should be...
