Great property with updated rooms. We enjoyed our stay. Small gripes include the sink being clogged which was a little frustrating, but everything else was wonderful!

The staff were really friendly however the manager was not accommodating when our friends asked for a different room because the handicapped accessible room that they were given but did not need has no privacy for the Bathroom and really couldn't get a wheelchair around in the room if you had to. When we mentioned that it isn't truly a handicap accessible room, we were told it was. The first night couldn't sleep because someone was getting high and could smell marijuana all night and the second night the people above us came in late and were so loud and noisy all night.

It’s basically a motel with slightly better decor (def not as fancy and new as in pics) and space. It is right by a major street and for some reason our room’s password lock doesn’t work so i wouldn’t say it is the safest motel… They also dont have 24/7 help/front desk…it is locked after 7:30pm. We got checked in last minute but later found the room is out of shampoo and body wash in shower (only have conditioner half full). Had to went to closest walmart to get some travel size sanitary products for the stay. The curtain is also only for privacy but not much blocking lights. We were awakened by sun hitting our face before 7am.

Clean and average

Nothing special. The room was clean when we checked in. The room wasn't serviced during iur stay. Which wasn't a big deal, just surprising. Parking was a little tight at times, but manageable.

Recently renovated property. Nice, safe, modern and clean. Our only challenge was communication with the property. One of our door codes did not work; we texted the property, and they did not respond. We also texted the property two other messages with questions, and they did not respond. We stopped by the front desk twice, during posted open hours, and it was locked/closed (9 am and 4 pm). So great property but very challenging to communicate with.

Newly Renovated Motel in Taos

Newly renovated older motel on the main highway into Taos, New Mexico. Excellent renovation. Spacious shower in beautifully tiled bathroom. One possible issue for some guests: very soft beds which might not suit persons with back problems. Best price in town on the date I stayed.

Pros: Convenient location, modern updated decor, comfy beds Cons: fresh sheets? Questionable...toilet had pubic hairs in it..a lot. Dirty soggy gross paper towel in shower. Shower floors a bit slimy. We wore our flipflops in it. If you just need a crash pad worked out fine.
