The hotel is in a good location, close to many attractions and shopping in Santa Fe. The rooms had a nice setup but felt a bit crowded with too many lamps. The service was hit or miss, with some friendly staff and some not so pleasant. The dining was decent, but it didn’t quite meet my expectations. Overall, it's a reasonable option, but the double beds are something to consider if you prefer larger beds.

The hotel has a clean environment and is conveniently located near Santa Fe, making it easy to explore the area. While the rooms are comfortable, they could benefit from less bulky furniture and better ventilation. The service felt a bit too business-oriented rather than friendly, which was disappointing.
