The property was clean. AC had some issues and the washing machine was so noisy you had to go outside when it was running. Not a very good area of Albuquerque.

Vintage feel with modern conviniences
We spent a long weekend at this house, and it was just perfect for my family of 4 and my grandparents. The house was very centrally located. Right off the freeway and close to everything! My grandparents were able to stay in the casita and have privacy away from my rambunctious boys. There were still some vintage pieces with a nice blend of modern. The yard was a nice size and well maintained, and so pretty to look out the kitchen window. There were a few hiccups, but the owners were always available, and responses were so fast. There were a few things, they wouldn't stop me from staying there again. the tub in the main house could go for a refresh. The pull-out couch is listed as sleeping 2, but my 12 year old son was the only one that fit on there to sleep, there is no way 2 adults could sleep on there.
I would still highly recommend this house as well as the hosts ,

Bungalow in Old Town
Five of our family enjoyed staying in your beautiful house, 3 minutes from historic Old Town. So clean, tidy, and full of extras! Peaceful, and secure. The beds were better than our home! Please consider eye coverage for a deeper sleep because of lights from the street. Perhaps black out shades in the future? That would be my only suggestion. Enjoy!
