This is an historic Route 66 motel, updated with modern fixtures and eclectic decor. It is located in the Nob Hill area fairly close to the U. New Mexico campus, which is a good location as there are multiple restaurants and other establishments of interest. Unfortunately the area has urban problems related to homelessness but it seems reasonably safe. The room itself was fine; bed was comfortable, nice shower, etc. Sound insulation to adjacent rooms could have been better, got treated to a whoopee-making session next door. The occupants were obviously young as it lasted a long time. Overall though the property was cool and I'd stay there again.

A bit noisy on a Saturday night. A lot of loud vehicles passing by, but that isn't something under management control, but is the nature of the area. As mentioned previously, sound insulation between rooms is less that desirable with noisy neighbors. In my case, it was a a bit of irritation for 20 minutes or so. It could have been a lot worse. There was also some noise from the pool area, but that died out fairly early and was not a problem.

The hotel was ideally situated in Albuquerque for our trip between Arizona and Colorado. We did not expect much and were blown away by this little gem. The hotel is a renovated roadside hotel with a bunch of unexpected amenities, from the locally sourced bathroom soaps/lotions to the very comfy robes and "secret" speakeasy. The bed was very comfortable and afforded us a much needed rest during our road trip. The area was walkable, and there were plenty of restaurants and cafes around the hotel.

The pool was closed. This is totally understandable as it was end of December, but a nice soak in a warm pool or hot tub would have made this experience supreme.

Nice remodeled motel with a lot of pride of ownership and unique perks ex the swimming pool and popsicle happy hour. Cool location. We were able to walk to a great Italian restaurant, little movie house and a fantastic waffle place for breakfast the next morning

This sounds petty and I get that... but hopefully as this motel succeeds some of the basic " bone structure" problems underlying the nice, new renovations will get addressed. Ex., a nice shower head in a shower that at first glance looks pretty but in fact is overlying really shabby craftsmanship with respect to tiling, grout and caulking. Additionally, please consider putting shampoo, etc in bottles that you can actually squeeze the contents out of. It took 2 of us to get the thick conditioner out of the tiny bottle. And please consider a larger font saying what was in the bottles. I had to get out of the shower, find my reading glasses then still had difficulty differentiating shampoo from conditioner and gel.

The concept and the overall look of the place was very interesting and enjoyable. The staff was welcoming. The pool was very clean and the pool area was delightful. The room was very clean and well decorated. I liked that there was no carpet. The pillows were great. The lounge was comfortable and fun, but I paid $16 for a shot of tequila and a half glass of sparkling water (is that normal for Albuquerque?)

The bed had a standard motel mattress, not comfortable, and I had to keep turning to keep my back from hurting. The coffee was substandard even though it was a pod machine -- maybe the worst I've had in a long time. I brought my own but had no way to heat water. The coffee maker was under a shelf and difficult to access. I had to use my phone's flashlight to see what I was doing. The bathroom window was not closed all the way. I had difficulty but got it closed; however, the wind howled through it all night.

Sharmin was extraordinary and ensured I had info on their guest events and that my stay was excellent! The Z Lounge Speakeasy was a nice getaway from the reality and heaviness for my stay visiting my sister for her palliative chemo. Bree the massage therapist in the Spa was fantastic and loved the art! I would 100% recommend Zazz, their stellar staff, and would definitely return for another stay when in Albuquerque.

Non dairy creamer options for the coffee. The only negative and really wasn’t that negative.

Comfort, beautiful, fun, great walking distance to food...you have to try the clown hot dog place.

$10 parking and not a lot of parking places open. You can hear the motorcycles and cars reving their engine up until 11 at night and then I slept like a baby until a lady in the parking lot started screaming and swearing at about midnight, but it was brief and back to bed. Running the a/c cuts out alot of sound until it quietens down and then zero sounds while you sleep.

I love how close it is to all of the restaurants and shops. It's an adorable place with a lot of character and color. The pool was really nice as well. I loved the Keurig in our room! As well as the cute fridge and microwave.

The parking was a little iffy. Our room was in front of a handicapped parking spot. We didn't really have a parking spot of our own, but it wasn't a big issue. I parked in the handicapped spot to unload and then parked in a spot right across from our room that was available.

Fun design, colorful artwork everywhere. The popsicle happy hour is awesome. My room was super clean and had nice toiletries and a robe! I didn’t have time to go to the speakeasy but it looked so fun and I will have to visit it the next time I visit Albuquerque. The hotel is located in a neighborhood with a lot of great restaurants within walking distance. Staff does a great job of communicating before and during the stay.

Nothing. Everything was great.

fun and clean

noisy party revealers until we’ll after 2am as if everyone staying there is part of their party. no effort by management to quiet them.

Very nice and clean hotel, nice people at check in and check out, the hotel is located in a good district, around there are many restaurants, on the other side of the hotel there is a very good breakfast restaurant, and also opposite the hotel there is a bus stop to Old Town, bus number 66 regular and 766, 777 express, all that busses are free

Nothing
