Cross country trip.
Loved this cute historic route 66 motel.. Renovations are modern, room was spacious with a living area and the most comfortable bed. A couple of observations, the bathroom floor sounding like cracking when walking on it. May be due to water damage under the flooring. Loved the walk in shower but water does get on floor. The area is walkable to Old Town Alburquerque and the River park. The complimentory glass of wine at check in was unexpected, and appreciated. Olivia was very knowledgeable of the area.Wish we had more time to explore Alburquerque. Will stay here again

Bad element in the parking lot
I really like this hotel and stay here frequently (once or twice a month) when traveling for work. On my most recent stay, I was harrassed by a man in the parking lot. He was irrationally screaming at me. I don't think he was staying at the hotel and seemed to be having an issue with being turned away. He and his friends hanging in the parking lot and near the door to the check-in area made me very uncomfortable. Also, the floor needs to be vacuumed more thoroughly.

Arrived at this cute little motel after 18 hours of planes and airports. It was midnight in a downpour. The room was clean and quiet and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The TV did not work, which wasn't really a problem as I instantly fell asleep anyway.
The bathroom was clean, but I do wish there was just a regular shower head instead of the awkward hand-held type. Difficult to manage and nearly flooded the bathroom due to the shower stall design.
Overall a neat, funky, little place to stay and the staff was nice and helpful. Great to see these classic old motels refurbished and back in business.
