About this property

CASITA PEQUENA-Efficiency Apartment

This downtown efficiency apartment is across the street from the Taos Plaza. It is on the "Garden Street" of Taos on a little one block street with shops, restaurants and four of my Vacation Rental apartments.
Free parking in lot across the street. Meters but town is not ticketing.
The kitchen area includes a refrigerator/freezer, microwave, coffee maker and toaster as well as dishes and glassware for two. Be sure and check out "Melissa's Picks" posted on frig for shops, museums and restaurants downtown.
The Reading Nook has a comfortable chair, reading light and a variety of Vacation Books.
The dining area is an antique table with two chairs complete with placemats and cloth napkins.
Opaque blinds offer privacy yet allow our wonderful Taos light to come in.
The main room has a ceiling fan, operable transom window and a dutch door for summer use. In winter months there is a gas log stove and even a heated electric mattress pad. Please operate gas log stove ONLY with wall thermostat. NEVER turn off main gas line.
The hallway has hooks for hanging clothing and there is a dresser at the foot of the bed.
I love the bathroom! It has a new tiled shower with my concept of random tiles and is bright and colorful. I provide Robes, thick towels, soaps, shampoo, hair dryer and other miscellaneous bath supplies. There is a ceiling fan for ventilation and a small space heater.
This apartment as well as all the buildings on the street was built in the 1880's so thick walls keep it cool in summer and easy to keep warm in the winter. 14" thick walls will do that. Also it ensures quiet even though right downtown. The beauty of adobe construction.
I operated this space as a small retail shop until I realized my true passion was Vacation Rentals. I love to remodel, furnish and decorate for my many guests.
I now have 11 Taos Rentals. Everything from this efficiency to one bedroom apartments and houses as well as two and three bedroom homes. All are listed on VRBO.
When I closed my shop I still had an inventory of merchandise. Everything in this apartment on walls and shelves is for sale to guests (almost everything...) Truly "Passive Retail" and you can go home with a Taos memory.
As with all of my rentals I am dog friendly and provide dog sheets. I charge $10 per night per dog which you may leave upon departure.
I provide wireless high speed internet with the user name and password posted by the dining table.
All of this at a great location, reasonable rates, amenities galore and shopping in your own private space! Come visit and enjoy Casita Pequena for a short stay.

KENNETH

Liked: Cleanliness
We liked the location and was within walking distance to shopping and dining. It was older adobe structure which we liked. What we didn’t like was marginally safe electric outlets and main door locks. The outlets were poorly maintained and hung loose. The door locks need to be updated and strengthened. Another item that needs to be addressed is that the property was advertised as an efficiency there was no sink in the “kitchen” area. We had to haul water from the bathroom to wash dishes and waste water carried back to the bathroom. With a few noted exceptions our stay was nice and comfortable.

Weekend stay
Loved the place overall. Was a little sad that it has kitchen advertised but all there was in that aspect was a tiny plug in toaster oven. Everything else was fantastic.

Great small rental close to everything
We loved the casita. It has a ton of character. It’s clean with a comfortable bed. One block from the main square. Next door to a cocktail bar and a restaurant. Only 30 min to the ski resort.

Loved this quaint efficiency casita just off the plaza in Taos. A wonderful place to stay for strolling around the heart of Taos.

Liked: Amenities, communication
Funky and small, as advertised. Close to everything and a decent price for the location. There was a fair bit of dust in the corners and on some of the things displayed for sale. A bit odd that the only sink for the “kitchenette” is in the bathroom, and is small for washing dishes. Old and creaky floors, and the front door doesn’t close very securely. But overall a good choice if you want to be close to the old town centre and are on a budget.
