This is the fifth time I’ve stayed at this hotel, and just love it. They, as part of their hospitality feature they provide all their guest, they picked me up and took me to — both the train station, the airport & Old Town Albuquerque. I love this place.

We drove in late and didn't get to take advantage of the views but the desk clerk was very friendly. The rooms were clean and fresh and the water pressure made for the most amazing showers. Everyone agreed we got amazing rest and would definitely stay hear again. We loved the southwest feel and appreciated the convenience of restaurant located in hotel. For clarification you can order breakfast but its not a free breakfast. Fair considering the price of the stay.
