    beautifully decorated lobby
    quiet rooms

    great access to trails and parks for weekend explorers

    I loved how the lobby was beautifully decorated and we found the rooms to be very quiet during our stay, providing a nice retreat after a day of exploring the nearby attractions like the San Felasco State Hammock Preserve and the Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo, both just a short drive away.

    inviting pool
    fresh breakfast
    crowded conditions

    The pool area offers a relaxing and inviting atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The breakfast is fresh, providing a satisfying start to the day with various options available.

    Checking in felt like a hassle due to the unexpectedly crowded conditions, especially during a busy football weekend. The room seemed smaller than anticipated, showing signs of aging with darkness and a ripped curtain. The bathroom setup lacked practical storage, making it inconvenient for toiletries, and the slippery shower floor could pose a risk.

    Family Fun at a Solid Spot

    The king suite was nice and convenient for my family with the baby, gave us a bit of space. Breakfast was great with fresh omelets that my daughter just loved.

    Yeah it wasn't exactly cheap, but it was still worth it for what we got.

    Fantastic Stay with Amazing Hospitality!

    I had a wonderful experience! Jessica, at the front desk, went above and beyond when she upgraded our room. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the breakfast spread was impressive, especially the omelette bar! Don't miss the Gator Den for delicious meals and friendly service from Vanessa.

    cool pool
    safe environment

    The pool was great and the hot tub was a relaxing treat after a long day. I also felt super safe after accidentally leaving money on the bed, and everything was just as we left it when we returned.

    Felt like being home, no complaint.

    spacious room
    comfy bed
    hot breakfast
    loud ac
    limited outlets

    The King Suite was pretty spacious, which was a nice surprise. Everything felt clean and the bed was super comfy. Gotta love the hot breakfast each morning, especially those omelettes they make fresh. However, the AC unit was pretty loud when it kicked on, which was kinda annoying at night. Also, there was only one outlet for charging, but we managed. Overall, decent stay!.

    bathroom safety

    I truly appreciated the charming lobby decorated with beautiful artwork, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. The accessibility features around the hotel made navigation easy for seniors like myself, ensuring a comfortable and worry-free stay.

    More grab bars in the bathroom would enhance safety.

    worn towels
    busy areas

    I enjoyed the hot breakfast each morning. The food was fresh, and I appreciated having options. The check-in was smooth, which made for a nice start to our stay. On one occasion, I found the pool area to be clean and inviting, perfect for relaxing after a busy day. It reminded me of family gatherings back in Italy, and that's always a good memory.

    The towels in the bathroom were worn. I found that somewhat surprising given my expectations. Some areas felt too busy with a steady flow of guests around.
