Lorry

Traveled with family
The 2 queen bed room166 on the ground floor has seen better days. The safety latch was broken off which meant anyone with a pass key could enter the room and the doors are all external facing so overall a safety issue- not ideal. Also the wall mounted hairdryer seemed to have been ripped off the wall- totally missing. The front desk did provide a handheld dryer when I went to the lobby and tracked someone down. But I don’t understand why they would let that room be rented with those problems when there was literally no one staying at this hotel. Maybe the second floor rooms are better but with no elevator we didn’t want to drag heavy luggage up a flight of stairs. And there were two flying bugs I had to track down and squish. The beds were comfortable and the lobby seemed lovely and remodeled but I likely would stay somewhere else.

When I arrived I was told they were upgrading me to a King size bed. When I got inside it was an old room with 2 tvs and 1 tv did not work. Also whoever cleaned the room left clothes from the previous person staying. The bathroom was tight and the room smelled like dog and cigarettes. I went to the front desk and I told them I reserved a newly updated room and how dirty my room is now but was told no rooms available to change. She also told me she would send someone in the morning to take out the clothes left inside. I was only staying 1 night. Never again am I staying .

The staff at this lodge really go out of their way to accommodate guests. Our room appears to have been updated recently and was very comfortable and clean. For Taos, NM, you can't get a better room for the price.
