Really enjoyed this funky little property. After a long day of driving, it was nice to sit outside in the open courtyard, have a beer from their on site bar and grab tacos from an adjacent restaurant. Room was awesome as well!

This is a very fresh take on a very historical model, first opened in 1937. Has charming southwestern adobe style rooms with large log rafters in the white stucco ceilings of the rooms, and other clean looking southwestern quirky touches. It is a small cluster of one story buildings, surrounding an enormous fences outside patio area that he’sa pool, tons of lounge chairs, seating areas scattered around, an upscale casual bar with an entry door plus a window to that patio to order drinks out there. Everyone working here is charming and helpful and friendly

Very close to Old Town. The toilet would refill every 4 or 5 mins. A seal must be leaking water. One person in the group felt it was hard to sleep. The refrigerator was slightly noisy too. I haven’t had issues at other hotels/motels with that kind of noise. The pool looked lovely, didn’t have time to swim. Even though there are less than half a dozen parking spaces dedicated to the hotel, never had an issue parking. The bagel place next door was good. The entrance to the hotel is not near the parking. It’s along the main road. The sign on the door is not good, we walked past the entrance. There are souvenirs available in the lobby for purchase. The bed was comfortable. Lots of good natural light in the day.
