I was initially nervous about staying at this hotel, after checking a number of travel site reviews, but after getting a good deal on a room there for an 11 day research trip to the area I committed. Ultimately I had a rare horror story that was salvaged by the dedicated staff and managers at Ramada. I awoke one morning... More

Check in ok with helpful staff answering questions about Balloon Fiesta, which we'd come to see. Card passes did not work too well in outside doors and had to ask for replacement room as first one stank of cigarette smoke despite it being non smoking hotel. Chambermaid should have reported this. Second room not so well situated but clean and... More

Had a hard time finding it at first as we booked the room under the hotel name "Scandia Courtyard"...from what we eventually learned it changed to Ramada a week earlier. Anyway once we got the correct room we booked we were happier with the room than we expected, by the looks of the outside. The door stuck so it was... More

At 1st look you might this hotel is fine. I was unable to shower because when my husband used the shower it wouldn't drain and filled the tub with black chunks!! It was disgusting.

This is an older property in a hotel cluster, located next door to the famed Owl Restaurant and Diner, a destination eatery right off the Interstate. Labor Day Weekend the hotel was nearly nearly sold-out. We had a Family Reunion there and this was a very afforadable site for a large group. There was also a Softball Tournament nearby, so... More

We are pleased to have hosted your family reunion during the Labor Day weekend. As you have noted, we were sold out that weekend - as an older established hotel - we do find groups that come back year after year. Unfortunately, as we upgrade our hotel - we realize that some of our changes will not please everyone and... More

...and that's where the positive aspect ends. The word my daughter and I used to describe this place was "sketchy." When we looked under the curtain after arriving, we noticed the sliding glass door and the "charlie bar" for the lock. I haven't seen one of those since college, so it made me nervous. The hotel needs updated--badly. The front... More

Sandia Courtyard Hotel had a friendly front desk check in, but that is where my positive comments end. Upon checking in, we noticed right away how hot the hallways were (more on that in a minute). The AC wall units were in the hall, but not on. The rooms were dated and had a smell. The AC was not turned... More

Looks like a lot of people are LIVING there and the "non-smoking" room smells like an ash tray. It's 10:42 pm and there are over 40 people crammed into 3 rooms next to us. They are loud, smoking, drinking, and swearing while about 10 run around wild outside. We tried to put our kids to bed and play a game... More

As an affordable convention hotel, we do find the challenges of balancing the needs of both new and repeat convention guests. For example, the weekend we hosted your stay - July 4th, 2011 - our common patio area and a block of sleeping rooms were offered to a repeat annual convention. We also had children playing in the courtyard area... More

My family stayed here for 2 nights, a Sunday and Monday. The hotel is fine but needs an update. The thing I noticed is that every door in the hotel, interior and exterior, needs to be junked and replaced. Each room has an interior hall door and an exterior sliding glass door. The locks on all doors are secure but... More

Ignore the planted reviews, this property is well past the expiration date. This wouldn't be so bad if it was maintained/cleaned a little bit better. The darkness in the corridors does not hide the fact that the carpets need vacuuming. The grass in the yard needs mowing, and there are cigarette stubs laying there left over from the previous guests,... More
