Always a preferred hotel in Albuquerque. We love the beds…very comfortable. Unfortunately the heater would blow cold air before it warmed up, which was also aimed directly at my bed. Slept fine, but had to cover my face initially. Everything else was nice and clean.

Mass Accession. The last Saturday of the 2019 Fiesta there were around 600 hot air balloons scheduled to go up. Organized chaos is the best way to describe it.  Color, sounds, people everywhere.  It was great.
