Properties shown in Expedia were not found as advertised. Extremely small, not an efficiency. No microwave, refrigerator extremely small. Bathroom more than half the size of the entire room. No table or nightstand on one side of bed. Only outside access to room. A/C loud and blew cold air across head of bed continuously. No hanging space.Limited space to open suitcases. Not at all as advertised.

Cute renovated motel. The woman working there was extremely accommodating and seemed to have a back up plan for every potential issue that popped up. I could tell she really cared about the establishment and it was reflected in how nice the stay was. I would definitely stay here again.

This was a great hotel. Super updated and awesome furnishings, really cute. It was very quiet in our room. The amenities were overall good but we could have used a little more variety in the morning hot drinks, and the sink was a bit clogged. Nothing terrible. Overall a great experience. Would stay here again for sure.

Enjoyable stay at an affordable room near Taos. Pleasant and accommodating check-in. Floor could have used a mopping but it's hard to keep up with all the tourist traffic. Would absolutely stay here again.

It looked to me like the lodge was in the middle of, or had recently completed an upgrade. Our room was in great shape though we never got the TV to work. That wasn't an issue, however, since we weren't there to watch TV! They'd just upgraded the locks on the door to use a PIN instead of key and that worked out very well. There were sufficient pillows, the bed was pretty comfortable, the shower pressure was good and the water was hot. Of note, the lodge is not "in" Taos so be prepared for a short-ish drive to get to downtown Taos if that's why you are visiting. The lodge is right next to the main road but wasn't overly noisy. The area felt safe and I noticed security cameras watching the parking lot. It isn't a big property and you might look twice at it but it was freshly painted, renovated, clean, and safe.

I was promised a ten percent discount because the tv wasn’t working. I never saw the discount, nor did the property respond to my message. Had to use earplugs because of the highway noise. Room code didn’t match the email I was sent. Floor was dusty. I wouldn’t stay there again.
