Deceptive photo on website compared to the actual room. The room was worse in appearance and view was a busy street 10' away. Ugly and noise.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (841 reviews)

Smallish room for the price; gas fireplace not wood burning; location was terrible; Santa Fe itself is an ugly town full of old buildings with absolutely NO charm at all. Having said that, housekeeping service was exemplary; valet car service was very good though understaffed; and restaurant was decent though we only had drinks there. Overall, would not stay here again, and will NEVER visit Santa Fe again!
