Check in was quick. Staff not so friendly. Not rude just not so friendly. Bathroom was freezing cold. Water pressure for shower was lacking. Carpet was dirty. Cold air could be felt blowing through a 8” spot on door located by door knob. Temp outside was 20 degrees.

Plenty of unused space in the room. They could add some chairs or tables for luggage. Shower water was lukewarm until I let staff know. Later it improved to slightly hot. Huge parking lot, so I don't understand why a parking fee is added.

Excellent stay. Clean inside and outside, friendly staff, convenient to downtown attractions, lots of parking (daily paid onsite in addition to room charge, and worth it). Great off-season value. Would gladly stay here again.

Absolutely the best motel I've stayed in. Nice up to date room that was impeccably clean. Nice and professional staff. Keurig and plenty of coffee in the room. Parking is $10 a day and since the motel is right in the heart town there are tons of things to do within walking distance. The attached Chinese restaurant is great. If you are looking for a great "base camp" to explore Santa Fe, this is a great choice.

El Sendero was a great location close to the Plaza. The motel allows guests to leave vehicles in their lot after check-out until 3pm which was great since I was in town for a conference. I stayed in a handicap accessible room that was very nice, clean, and quiet. The bed had a good, firm mattress but was a bit high. It would be difficult for someone wheelchair bound to get into bed (I'm 5' 3" and the top of the mattress was at my waist.) My only complaint is the shower water was luke warm.
