Taos stay
The studio is as listed. Bathroom and kitchen were clean, but floor was not and not sure about the bed sheets. Had fans but it was very warm. We left the interior door open at night to help cool the place, but were a little concerned about safety. Not easy to get your luggage into the studio as doors are small and could not open both sets of doors.
Convenient location for everything we wanted to do in Taos. Cute apartment in an historic area. Perfect for our short stay.

Great place to stay!
Wonderful place to stay in Taos. Be sure to read the history and backstory of this studio. The location is close and within easy walking distance to many great Taos galleries, museums, and restaurants. The property manager was easy to communicate with and was responsive to any questions or requests. I highly recommend this very unique studio.

Fantastic location and gracious host
This historic pet-friendly adobe dwelling is one block from the Taos Plaza and walking distance (less than a mile) from many excellent museums, shops, and restaurants. It is a cosy studio apartment, with a very well-equipped kitchen, comfortable king bed, and nice bathroom with good water pressure and double sinks. The host is very gracious and thoughtful, providing freshly ground local coffee for the coffee maker, tea bags, and small soap and hair care products for the bathroom. Towels and linens were clean and looked new. Our host was very responsive to questions and suggestions. We cooked a few meals in the small but usable kitchen with a good assortment of pots, pans, and kitchen tools. The oven, refrigerator, toaster, and coffee maker all worked perfectly. No automatic dishwasher. No dining table, only a raised counter with two high stools. Because it is in the center of town and on a busy road, light sleepers and people needing absolute silence to fall asleep should plan accordingly. Though we had no problems finding street parking nearby, this unit offers no off-street parking. Some Taos parking lots do not allow overnight parking, either. A nice park for dog walking is only a few blocks away. We loved the location, the gracious and welcoming host, and the experience of staying in a real adobe hideaway in the heart of Taos.
