This is not your average "motel" - what a find!!! The rooms are very tasteful with rustic furnishings, mexican tile, and little touches that make it feel more like a boutique hotel. We had a king room which was spacious and warm feeling with lots of colour and atmosphere. The reasonable rate was complete with full breakfast served in a small courtyard complete with kiva fireplace and rustic furnishings. Fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs, tortillas or porridge with dried fruit, coffee and juice. Only minus is the lack of quality bedding - a big down comfortor would have made it perfect. But the bed was very comfy....
This motel is very near to the Santa Fe train station which makes it convenient for the Rail Runner Express and also to the shops, restaurants, farmers market and brew pub in the Santa Fe Railyard while only being four short blocks to the main plaza of the old town. As a motel, there is lots of parking which doesn't cost extra as it does in many of the central hotels.
While I don't generally like 'motels' - this is a great place and I would stay again.
Room Tip: Some rooms have a small kitchenette - maybe nice for a longer stay.
