The location is wonderful. The town is adorable, there was food and music and stores galore. The building is old but clean. If we needed anything in the kitchen, we contacted the owner and they dropped it off. The shower leaves something to be desired, but it says that in the description. We would stay there again.

Great location

Location is fantastic. Elderly or disabled would be different due to stairs and entry doorways. It is like having a personal apartment to come back to. Plenty of room to relax and so close to shops and dining/coffee. Would stay again!

Perfect for Visiting Family in Cruces

I booked this location not knowing it was one I had been by every day in my life. Being a native from Mesilla Park who comes back to visit family, I think this location is so much better than any hotel! I traveled with my two kids and they thought it was fantastic! Not to mention opening the windows of the Pat Garret room and smelling La Posta food, or opening the windows in the kitchen and smelling fresh chips from the Double Eagle. I was in heaven. We will definitely be booking this place again when we come back to visit family.

Billy slept here

Well, he almost certainly didn’t but it feels like he could have. This place was just fabulous, starting with the location, which is near one corner of the Mesilla town plaza and just across from La Posta. Spacious place with a TV sitting room, two nice bedrooms, and beautiful kitchen, with laundry. Julienne’s team was on top of everything from start to finish and checked in just enough. I’ll definitely come back here.

Tricky to find location but wonderful place to stay

Overall this was a great place to stay. The location is awesome, right in the heart of the charming little old town of Mesilla and an easy walk to restaurants and shops. It is also on the 2nd floor of the building. There is parking for one car in a car port, otherwise street parking. Because of its location, it could be noisy for sleeping although this wasn't an issue for us. We had some difficulty finding it (narrow streets and poor signage of street names). Once we did, getting in was no problem. The place is roomy and had everything we needed for our stay.
