The property was fabulous! We will want to stay again in the near future. The fenced yard was perfect for our small dog, there were no places he could get out of the yard at. Although we did not cook this time out, we noted how clean the kitchen was and how it had everything you could need to prepare any type of meal.We were really impressed.

I rented this home for a month to escape the Midwest winter, explore a new part of the country, and attend a nearby business conference—and it was a great choice all around.The house itself is charming and comfortable, and the location couldn’t have been better. It was incredibly convenient for my conference, and during my downtime, everything I wanted to see and do around Albuquerque felt easily accessible.One of the unexpected highlights was the backyard. My dog, Louise, absolutely loved soaking up the sun out there, and I appreciated having a fully fenced space where I knew she was safe.During my stay, my son and granddaughter came to help with the conference, and I also hosted a visiting friend. The house handled it all comfortably—it was wonderful to have enough space for everyone without feeling crowded.As someone who enjoys cooking, I was especially pleased with the kitchen setup. It was well-equipped with everything I needed, including quality cookware (which is not always a given in rentals).Sam was an excellent host—responsive, helpful, and quick to address any questions that came up.All in all, this was a comfortable, well-located home with thoughtful amenities and a great host. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

This is an excellent Southwest style home on a quiet street but within walking distance of a weeks worth of activities. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of dinnerwear, and the pantry has plenty of the little things that you might forget to bring if you're cooking. The host is friendly, has a good attitude and excellent communication. This property checks all the boxes for a 5 star stay.

Why they chose this property

Historic area of Albuquerque!! The location is fantastic, you will be surrounded by restaurants and museums. Explora (fantastic kids museum) The Natural History Museum, and the Art Museum of New Mexico. Old Town with many restaurants and shops. All this is within a 5-minute walk from the home. If you hop in the car you can drive 5 minutes to the Bio Park, which includes the aquarium. The ABQ zoo is just a short drive through old neighborhoods. Downtown is also just a short 5-minute drive. The home itself is a remodeled Adobe with consideration of its 1926 origins. Hardwood floors and saltillo tile cover the floors. Simple yet elegant bedrooms and bathrooms with modern amenities. Dimmable lighting in the bathrooms and kitchen bring a nice layer of personal touch. The kitchen is tastefully decorated and stocked for almost all cooking needs along with complimentary coffee or tea. Enjoy the outside with a large size private gated and fenced backyard with seating for 10 and a bbq. Great for pets as they have the entire property to securely run around.
