Terrific location
Guests rave about the location of this hotel, which is steps away from ABQ Uptown, a popular open-air shopping, dining, and entertainment district. A complimentary shuttle takes guests to other nearby attractions such as the historic Old Town, and also connects with the Coronado Mall Park & Ride bus, which offers a ride to the city's famous Balloon Fiesta.

Getting old and tired..
Guests often note that the building is older and the general impression seems to be that the rooms look "tired", with time-worn, dated furnishings, fabrics, and carpet.
negative:
Climate control issues..
The hotel's air conditioning units may be due for replacement, as several guests report calling maintenance to address AC issues during their stay. Others find that the air conditioning is effective, but too noisy for a good night's sleep.
negative:
Stock your fridge..
Several guests were disappointed in the range and quality of food on offer at the complimentary breakfast buffet and evening socials, though some are consoled by the nearby Trader Joe's. A few guests also had trouble with the complimentary Wi-Fi.
