Fairfield By Marriott Inn & Suites Albuquerque Uptown

UPgraded. UPscale. UPtown! 3 bed, 2 bath, sleeps 6! Near UNM + Nob Hill too!

Towneplace Suites By Marriott Albuquerque Uptown

10/10 Excellent

"The facilities were clean, had a nice fitness center, tons of restaurants and shopping nearby."

ABQ Uptown Condo near I-40, 2bd/1ba, AC!

8/10 Good

"The location was great, with easy access to the interstate and a nearby shopping district (Uptown). We could even walk to the theater! The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, and we easily set up house for our 2 week stay.There were unfortunately two drawbacks that keep this from getting a perfect 5 stars. The most significant was the toilet. It has a "round" rather than "elongated" bowl. You almost never find these in public restrooms or hotels, and for very good reason. The tank crowds the seat, further enhancing the discomfort.The other issue is that there is an apartment immediately above this one, and you can hear people walking around at night. Earplugs are provided as an amenity."
