Guest Interaction:
I like you to feel comfortable in the space, as if it was your own. I provide thorough directions and lots of communication. Throughout your stay, I am only ever a message or phone call away. I'm always happy to provide recommendations, advice, or anything else that may come up during your stay. If we are not available, we have assistant available.

Other Things to Note:
1 small dog allowed and must be approved by host prior to booking. There additional pet fee of $75 (per dog). $150 will be collected prior to check-in and half will be refunded after checkout so long as all pet rules are followed. If you do bring your dog we will be adding a sofa cover to the couch.

Security Cameras installed outside (these are the only cameras) - we use this to monitor guest count and for security purposes.

Trash - guest agrees to take cans to curb on designated city pick up days

The home is regularly treated with non-toxic pest repellent. Still, this property is located in a historic neighborhood in the desert. Bugs are a part of life here in the southwest. While we make every effort to stay on top of pest control and keep the apartments spotless for guests, we cannot completely control nature and therefore you may see the occasional bug. Please be aware of this and make sure you're ok with the possibility before booking.

The Neighborhood:
We love the historic feel and the charm that Old Town delivers. It's always enjoyable to slow down and spend time strolling through the square and the numerous shops and restaurants available. We feel perfectly safe walking around Old Town both day and night, just sticking to the immediate blocks around the plaza, and around Rio Grande Blvd. Going from Central towards Downtown does have some isolated stretches so it is recommended to use common safety sense as you would in any big city.

Distance to:
Airport: 9 miles
Balloon Fiesta Part: 12 miles (we recommend park-n-ride)
Hotel Albuquerque: 4min walk
UNM: 3.5 miles
Old Town: 2 min walk
Fairgrounds: 8miles
Convention Center: 2 miles

Location is perfect for walking to Old town and surrounding restaurants. Walk score of 84 out of 100. This location is Very Walkable so most errands can be accomplished on foot.

Bike score of 87 (very bikeable, flat as a pancake, good bike lanes). There is a bike rental shop within walking distance as well.

Uber, Lyft and Taxi's are always available.

There is a bus system, check the city website for details.

Family reunion
This home is quaint and comfortable. It was centrally located for our travels around Albuquerque. Our pet was safe there in the back yard and the home and yard were as advertised. The home was very hot when we arrived but the AC cooled it down fairly quickly. We come from a very rural area that is pretty quiet. The road noise of the jacked-up cars was a bit annoying but that isn't the owners fault. All in all it was an enjoyable stay in this historic area of Albuquerque.

VRBO was conveniently located close to Old Town, VRBO was a short walk away. VRBO has 3 mini splits, one in each bedroom and one in the living room. They cool quickly once turned on and do keep the temperature regulated nicely.

Short Stay
My family and I enjoyed our short stay at this location. It was clean and orderly with a good amount of space to stretch out and relax. The area is near old town with nice cafes and restaurants to eat at a few minutes outside of downtown Albuquerque.

Great Location
Location was great. We are familiar with Albuquerque so had no problems getting around using the highways or main streets. House had everything we needed. Having a garage for parking was nice. The same with a washer and dryer. Only recommendation is garage should be swept out and the house had areas of dust bunnies. No biggy, but does distract when you see long black hair in lint and you are silver and short haired. Would recommend.

Graduations
This was our 2nd time in this property. Both times were amazing. This is a great location, within walking distance to a LOT of great sights. Neighborhood is quiet. We plan on using this again in March 2025. Management was available, not bothersome. Everything you could need was provided. Just GREAT! I'd love to keep it my secret, but also don't want to deprive anyone the great opportunities of this property.

The home was very clean. Bed was comfortable. Our pet was small so the front gate had an opening that he could get through. Not a problem …..we just kept him on a leash.

Nice house, good location.
The house had two large bedrooms and one bath, and was very clean and nice. The owner was accessible through VRBO and responded to any questions within 24 hours--sooner, if there was an issue. While we chose to drive to locations, Old Town was certainly within walking distance. Even better, the entrance to I-40 was about a half-mile away. I would happily stay there again.

Cherry of a place
My friend flew in from Tulum, I came in from Portland and we visited some of our favorite places from when we lived in ABQ 20 years ago as well as some new great finds. This house is comfortable, charming, clean and walking distance to the Rio Grande (just down Mountain), Old Town, Saw Mill Market and so many yummy restaurants. Plus the home comes with a fabulously full cherry tree!

Perfect location
If you're looking for a stay with a New Mexico vibe and a great location, this is it. We walked to Old Town several times. The Breaking Bad Museum is very close. Since our stay was during Christmas, we walked to the BioPark to see the River of Lights. The location is a typical adobe structure on a residential side street so there is very little traffic or noise.
