Desert Flower Indeed

We stayed at the Desert Flower for one week and loved every moment! The two bedrooms were perfect for us, wonderful bed linens and attention to detail. Ideal bathroom and kitchen with outstanding water pressure and again great linens. Perfect sitting room with a comfy couch. We didn’t use the outside space at all but it looked lovely. Overall it was a perfect stay and we hope to visit again!!

Great location — close to everything we had planned and easy to get around. The neighborhood felt very safe, and we were able to relax and enjoy our time there. The beds were super comfortable, and the outdoor space was lovely — perfect for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. Would definitely stay here again!

The Desert Flower was just what we needed. We crew for a balloonist and we needed a place to get away when not involved with Fiesta. Desert Flower offered that perfectly. The location was quiet and a short drive to anything. The host was fantastic and communicated well. When we had one cold night/early morning, the heat must have kicked on while we were away for Mass Ascension. We came home to an odor in the home. Our host looked into, discovered the source of the first use of heating system (I’m sure everyone has noticed that before), and made sure it was all safe. The home is clean, functional and put together well. We highly recommend.

This is our second stay here. We appreciate the neighborhood and access to the walking trail. The home is comfortable and has everything you need for a short visit. It was very pleasant to sit on the patio and enjoy the neighbors walking along the path. The air conditioner is excellent. We love the decor, and the coffee maker was much appreciated. Enough pots, pans and spices to prepare meals. Close to restaurants and stores without the noise of the city.

Overnight getaway

We just needed an overnight getaway for a night. This place was exactly as advertised or maybe even a little better. They had all the essentials we needed. The spice cabinet was well stocked, which was a happy surprise. The property was very clean. We had intended to use the fire pit out back, but alas, the weather was not cooperating so we could not. But I love that there is the option to hang out outback around a fire pit. I would definitely recommend this property. The host Aaron is very communicative, which is so appreciated.

This wonderful property is tucked away in a nice and quiet neighborhood in the north valley of Albuquerque.It is a safe place to stay and was perfect for my brother's 30-day visit. Being local, I was able to meet Aaron in person. He is very nice and accommodating, and always communicated with me to ensure my brother's needs were met... and they were! We would highly recommend this charming property to anyone visiting Albuquerque, Thank you Aaron and Margo, Annette

A pretty little casita

This was a nicely appointed casita with two bedrooms in the Griegos area off Rio Grande Blvd. There was easy access to all points northeast, south and East of the location. Heading out to the west side of ABQ and you’ve got a round about way to get there, just don’t be in a hurry and you’re golden. Aaron was kind and communicative, and brought us a sweet gift of balloon fiesta cookies on our check out day. We both loved our stay,slept very comfortably.

Small older home, clean, in a quiet, safe neighborhood, which was our main concern. Unlocking keypad on front door, a little challenging, but worked through it. Would recommend. Front door parking.
