Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel itself is loaded with charm. Not fancy but tremendously quaint. Location wise, you can’t get more centrally located! Unfortunately, to no fault of the hotel, it is surrounded by what is undeniably a drug epidemic in Taos. Because of this, we didn’t want to leave the hotel after the sun set and we ate at the restaurant inside the hotel which was fantastic with a big lean towards vegan. Taos is so incredibly beautiful but the overwhelming clear and present drug use (literally in the alleyway beside the hotel where our window overlooked and the parking lot in the rear) was equal parts heartbreaking and scary.

Location is great. We could walk everywhere. Somewhat trashy outside but maybe city's fault. Room was clean but could use some updating and paint.

The hotel is old and in need of repair, with creaky floor and chipped old furnishings. Very drab. Parking lot is not secured and it cost extra. TV remote did not work. The hotel is not handicapped friendly. There was a step up to get to the bathroom, which could be a trip hazard. The ratings and reviews of this hotel were very misleading.

Nice hotel in the middle of the Taos main plaza. There are plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the hotel/plaza. Hotel parking is behind the hotel, at a cost of $10 per night. Rooms are not your typical hotel style rooms. They have a rustic character to them that is different from the conventional hotels most people use. Note: When I stayed there in August 2025, there was remodeling being done on the plaza itself, so part of it looks like a construction site. However all the shops and restaurants were open.
