I would suggest you ignore everything written up until this year as this place is now a timeshare. It is not tied in with any other resort or hotel in town. The units are condos (maybe different sizes). Ours was an updated 1 bedroom unit and it was extremely nice with alot of charactor. It was upstairs and had a nice size balcony but wasn't covered so was very hot and unuseable most of the time.
The kitchen has everything 1/2 size but we had no problem cooking in there (no oven). we had a cooler and that helped. Strangely, the kitchen was well furnished with packages of spices, starter coffee etc but the bathroom only had soap - no other toiletries. There was no maid service but they gladly exchanged towels, etc.
The office was very pleasant and helpful and there you could find free washer/dryer and even free soap. also ice.
It was strictly a place to eat and sleep. Our issues with this place was the biggest being it has no pool (which would have been great after being in the heat) or jacuzzi and no activities whatsoever. It does have DVDs for rent and that covers it.
It was walking distance to the Plaza. There are restaurants, stores, etc. very nearby but I would suggest a car and a GPS as well. With the GPS, we just drove at random exploring.
If you are committed to a week here, it is too long. Since it is driving distance (1 hour) to Albuquerque, I suggest you use this as your base. Unless you are into museums, art and hiking, it still might be too long. If you're interested, there are 3 casinos (one after the other on 84/285) in less than a 1/2 hour.
hope this helps

Drove into town and loved it when we realized most everything in Taos is within walking distance. The resort is very eye appealing and clean. We wish every Worldmark looked like this one.

After having a vacation rental fall through, this was a last-minute option.

After 2 phone calls, we obtained a room rate of $120/night. Staff was informal, but helpful and pleasant. On arrival, we felt truly welcomed - appreciated given the circumstance that brought us there.

The room was more than adequate -- actually, it was a suite, with a private deck. Very nice at the price, and again: they were aware that we were stuck. Couch in living room was comfy, gas fireplace worked well, kitchen was simple but it all worked and worked well. Internet also worked well, which is/was important to us. Breakfasts were simple and fresh enough. We also hugely appreciated that parking was easy, though we were within a 10 minute walk to the plaza. Nice.

The only reason I would not rate this a "perfect 5" is that it is a simple lodging option: there is no true luxury involved. That said, taking a property on its own merits, our stay was an outstanding bargain.

I booked this hotel based on other reviews and have found Trip Advisor to be very beneficial. I loved this hotel and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a small inn experience. If you are looking for a large hotel setting and feel, I would recommend their sister hotel, the El Dorado which is a couple of blocks away. I personally enjoy smaller properties that are more intimate and have a homey feel.

We booked a 1 bedroom suite for our 8 night stay, during the balloon festival week in Albuquerque. Having a larger unit, with a small kitchen area/living room area, and a separate bedroom and bathroom seems to work, especially for so many nights. We actually had dinner delivered 2 nights, which was a nice option after a day of hiking and walking. The room was clean and as is common in Santa Fe was decorated with a New Mexican theme. The exterior was traditional adobe or faux adobe that looked real. I think one of the biggest bonus' of this property was the ample self-parking, which, at least during our stay in the area, was limited.

I personally liked being off the "main" plaza area, although to say there is a main area in Santa Fe is misleading in my opinion; there is so much to see and do. I disagree with one of the reviewers about Guadalupe St being dingy. Overall I felt this area and the surrounding location was safe and quite acceptable.

The staff was friendly and efficient, which I can’t say about all the businesses we patronized on our vacation in Santa Fe. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and as previously stated, would highly recommend this property.
