Unique place to stay to say the least! Pretty much our go to place to stay in Alb. now. Convenient location to the Downs at Alb and just far enough way to be relatively safe near a rough part of town. Charge for parking should come with the room. Just Sayin.

My air conditioner stopped working. I was 3pm on a weekday when I noticed it, and instead of fixing it,k they moved me to another room, above the bar. The bar was noisy with thmping music through my floor until after 10pm. I complained and they tried to move me to a room that was not as good athe room I paid for, and it stunk of cigarettes. I had to complain again and was moved to a 4th room that was smaller than the room I booked and paid for. It was not a fun experience moving my bags all over the Motel.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which truly stood out for its accommodating staff. They provided extra soaps, shampoos, and even an iron and ironing board when needed. Everyone was kind and courteous, making my experience enjoyable. However, I was disappointed to find an additional parking fee on top of the already high room rate. For that price, I expected parking to be included. While there is a side lot with security cameras, it lacks visibility from the room, which can be concerning given the area's sketchy reputation. It would have been reassuring to park in the motel’s more visible spots, especially since they had open spaces available. Additionally, the hotel advertised movies by the pool on both their website and in-room TV, but both nights there were no movies showing, which was a letdown. Overall, I had a good experience and would recommend this hotel, but be aware of the extra parking costs and check for movie schedules if that’s something you’re interested in.

Hotel Zazz is a fun and modern motel that fits right in with Albuquerque's personality. Located in the Nob Hill district, it is within walking distance to restaurants, cafes, and shops. The staff were great and super friendly, and if you had any questions they were just a text message away. The rooms were bright and modern with colorful accents to really set them apart. Make sure you check out the speakeasy lounge and hang out by the pool.

What drive up motel charges for parking and has you “reserve” a spot. Room was poorly stocked and the front desk and lobby is closed until 8:30 am, so we had no coffee in the morning. Staff was friendly rooms clean. No microwave in room, only one on premises is in the “speak easy “ bar, which no one wants to have to fully dress again and go through a bar to heat up a meal. Not sure why a motel wouldn’t have a microwave…

Lipstick on a pig. The rooms are remodeled but the remodel was done poorly. The motel itself is a cinder block and lopsided. There is a party element to the hotel which means you will see a lot of 30 somethings day drinking and smoking cigarettes. The hydration room smelled awful. We had cigarette smoke coming into our room at 1 AM. The pool looked like hepatitis. The bathroom weirdly smelled like bad seafood. The tile in the bathroom was crooked and poorly installed. This hotel has a great marketing team.

It is definitely a cute hotel and some thought was put into the little touches. But OMG put some effort into the front desk employees. I touched the banana saw the cute bar, grabbed dinner really quick and then came back to have a few drinks. The bar was closed for renovations suddenly? The desk guy was pretty short and rude and was like I'll send a text when it's open. I heard nothing after a couple hours so I checked in again... same insanely rude comments and a promise of a text. I checked back at 9pm (because the bar closes at 10) and was told it was open but I had missed last call. What happened to my text?!?! And an HOUR before close last call?!?! I booked this hotel specifically for the cute bar feature and didn't even get to use it. Bit of a let down.
