We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was clean and quite comfortable for the four of us. Walking distance to the plaza with amazing food and 11 minutes from the Opera House was wonderful and air conditioning appreciated. Nice to know someone was on call should we need anything at all.

Lovely casita close to plaza

Perfect cozy casita for a relaxed and enjoyable visit to Santa Fe. We had everything we needed to kick back at the end of the day and just be. The rooms were comfortable and the art made it homey.
