Really enjoyed fantastic location for $100 less than similar properties. Older but clean and nice.
Good beds
Walkable to all attractions but because of motel like set up can drive in and out easily
Recommend
This is a nice stay in Santa Fe,near the plaza, which is where you want to be. Walking distance to historic sites, dining and shopping. The rooms are great for couples or solo travelers.Clean and quiet. Nice staff, good Chinese restaurant on premises.

Fine for what it is location is great room felt old while they tried to make some upgrades. Ok for one night but would not stay again in the future for a longer stay
Fantastic location just a few blocks off the Plaza. Central parking area made life easy: we parked once on our stay and walked everywhere we needed to go. Even the Railyard was within walking distance. The room was clean and quiet, and the loudest noise we heard was a housekeeping cart rolling by. Coffee in the lobby was great; hot tea at night welcome.
