Overall, I was quite satisfied. Facilities, maintenance, and staff friendliness were all great. The only downsides were the location. It was located next to a road with an overpass, so it was a bit noisy and the surroundings felt somewhat chaotic.
That said, considering the room condition at this price, I believe it offers strong value for money.

I really appreciated the staff , real problem solvers and genuinely nice people. One even helped me find a less expensive place to stay to fit my budget. Complimentary coffee ( varied options) , water dispenser in lobby, and a fantastic very large tv in the bedroom were some draw cards. I could use my Netflix membership easily . I didn’t get the included breakfast as I booked through a third party so explore booking direct . The breakfast sounded good:) . It certainly offers a far nicer ambience than the less expensive place I relocated to . Their Nice carefully picked staff make a big difference. They should all be complimented ! :)

Great stay with family and 2 dogs. Rooms were comfortable and decent sized. Pet room had vinyl plank flooring and our regular handicapped room had carpet and good ADA accommodations. Restaurant was good but was pricey. We would definitely stay again. The staff was excellent, Elliott called us the morning of our stay to verify our needs and make sure we were accommodated.

The stay was great, super safe and secured place with lots of parking. The lounge had a live band and they were pretty good. Food at the restaurant was really good. I would recommend this place for sure.

I have stayed here three times with Road Scholar tours. Hotel is always very clean, rooms are spacious and well stocked with towels. Restaurant breakfast was good with cheerful attentive service from Geraldine and Lea. Prompt pickup by Ivan upon arrival at airport. Food and service for our group meals were excellent. Thanks to Gillian for ensuring our group members got to the airport for departure when the hotel shuttle van was having issues. Hotel is just a few blocks from Old Town which has museums and shops to explore, plus several restaurants.

My husband and I travel to Albuquerque often to see family, and we always stay at Best Western Rio Grande. It has a Southwestern feel, and you can walk to Old Town and the museums. There is also a walking path just down from the hotel, an exercise room, and free breakfasts. The staff is exceptional!
