Hotels on the Lake in New Mexico

The property was extremely clean and taken care of. The only pleasant employees we came across was a pool bartender guy and front desk guy. Everyone else seemed like they did not enjoy being there and did the bare minimum for working in hospitality to try and help us. Food was ok at best. Casino dealers were lacking a personality which made the gambling experience not that fun. Very strict alcohol policy - no drinking on the casino floor and all alcohol drinks have to be paid for. I think these are New Mexicos laws though so not a knock against Sandia itself there, just something to be aware of if you’re coming to this property from out of state like us. While the property was nice and rooms were spacious and clean, I just don’t think the price justified the level of enjoyment on the trip.

Staff was friendly, parking was great they had security roaming around so it put us at ease, breakfast was definitely lacking I wish they would offer some protein option but all they had were pancakes and those were meh at best. It’s an older hotel but it was reasonably priced and the location was perfect, yes I would stay there again.

One of the nicest hotel stays I’ve had in a long time. Staff were friendly and welcoming. The nicest most helpful people. And everything smelled nice too. After a long day of traveling it was a wonderful experience.
