Great Stay in Tais

We learned that the hotel had recently been remodeled. Well, if true it was done very well. Comfortable, spacious, clean rooms. Friendly, helpful staff. Beautiful Coffee bar which we were told would add bar/restaurant features. We highly recommend this hotel.

We were greeted with a smile & guest box. The stay was comfortable but the floors had not been fully cleaned. I walked barefoot & ended up with a black foot from all the dirt. Good thing guest slippers were provided. Otherwise, it was cleaned as expected. There was only one garbage can, so requested the can be dumped. I was told housekeeping cleans every 3 days. I received the 2 extra towels & chased housekeeping down for another bag in exchange for garbage. We had 3 adults & was given 4 towels, 2 hand towels, 2 washcloths. Do the math. When the fire alarm was beeping, we did receive a quick response to change the batteries. The toilet seat was also very loose though. Overall, it was ok, but I would try somewhere else first, if we ever come back to Taos.
