Summary:

Steps Away from Historic Plaza



The Space:

PROFESSIONALLY HOSTED BY TWO CASITAS

Spotless cleanings, 24/7 guest support, detailed property guides, and best of all, no checkout chores.



SUMMARY

This one bedroom historic apartment is set apart from all others as it is the only one of its kind right on the world-famous Santa Fe Plaza. Built in the late 1800s, this upstairs apartment is freshly remodeled and decorated with a reverence for Santa Fe's history.



LIVING AREA

A thorough collection of local art and artifacts that enhance the New Mexican atmosphere, a big picture window overlooks La Fonda and the Cathedral. The sofa converts into a queen-size sleeper for additional guests.



KITCHEN AND DINING

The kitchen is fully equipped to cook any meal, and is adorned with hand-painted cabinets. The dining area seats four, and is adjacent to the living room.



BED AND BATH

The king size bedroom features a large skylight and an additional TV. The renovated bathroom features a glass-enclosed shower and a gorgeous modern glass bowl sink.

Great accommodations within walking distance to everything downtown!

Loved the accommodations, very restful place. Easy walking distance to all of downtown Santa Fe. Location is right on a busy street, but during the daytime street noise is very acceptable. At night, street noise is very undesireable with cars & motorcycles treating a very quaint, narrow street as if it was a drag strip. So unfortunate - GREAT accommodations, not so sure we would return.

Centrally Located to all the Sites

Well appointed apartment in the center of Santa Fe within walking distance of all the attractions. 1/2 block off Santa Fe Plaza. Very comfortable, great customer service. The only downside is a bit of evening and nighttime noise from old cars cruising downtown.

Gary, thank you for the great review! We're so glad you enjoyed the house and that you were comfortable during your stay. This house does have the tremendous upside of being on the plaza. You walk out the door and onto the plaza, but you're right that the natural downside is a little bit of street noise, typically it's died all the way down by 10pm! We'd love to see you again next time you're in Santa Fe!
