They extended for one room and not the other? Does this make sense? Never called to say they couldn't get the second room booked for two extra nights! So half the family members would be forced to stay elsewhere? Not happening. Also NOT DOG FRIENDLY! You can NOT leave your dog in the room when you leave. I get some dogs are barkers but you put dog rooms elsewhere and have contact info incase barking occurs. Restaurant reception was pushy they didn't want to serve us because they were closing in 30 mins. They had 7 tables of people in the restaurant. The waiter was excellent and the food was as well. One star because your only as good as your word. No one took accountability for their actions even when they were confronted by their coworker. A "I'm sorry" and "let me see how we can fix this" goes along way.

Parking lot is too small for the number of rooms. You can use a garage across the street. Just know they lock it at night and you can't get your car out. I didn't have a problem as most nights, but my first Friday, the lot didn't fill. I was disappointed with three things. First when I exchange, at other resorts, on shoulder season I have always gotten a third floor room. I own top tier resorts in Hawaii and Phoenix. They refused to give me one. I was there for a week and every night but the first Friday the parking lot only had a few cars. So not sure what was up with that - because I don't own there? Second, the vehicle noise. My room on the 2nd floor overlooked Galileo St. The motorcycles come up to the stop sign and rev their engine and it vibrates off the buildings. It is also a cruising street? From about 4:30p to 10p cars , trucks, motorcycles come thru with the stereos all the way up. Some were so loud it vibrated pictures on the walls and drowned out any music or tv you're watching. Third, one of the office staff actually asked me to tip the maids. Not sure if I look like I have no manners or what. I gave her a look and she said - are they taking care of your room or do you have a do not disturb. I told her I had a do not disturb. She said - well then you don't have to. I don't have to? Really inappropriate. I don't use maid service as I don't need towel changes etc. as I keep a clean room and believe in preserving water. I usually leave a small tip anyways on my last day. I was really insulted (pissed?) - so I didn't. If the hotel reads this I hope you will provide a tip to them as your behavior prevented their getting one from me. As long as the noise and parking situation doesn't bother you it's a nice place to stay. I noticed most guests only stayed a night or two. Which I would recommend.

It feels very mom and pop (some of the toiletries we've seen in Airbnbs), the comforters weren't the same, one of the lotions & one of the coffee packets were open & partially used, the USB port wasn't usable because it had been pushed in at an angle. The shower goods are squeeze bottles which might be challenging for arthritis hands. I can't say what kind of restaurant they have, I waited a while to be seated while the staff were chilling & looking right at me, so I left without even seeing a menu. I think the most annoying thing is charging for parking. They have a huge lot, and it's not like there are other options near.

We live in the area and wanted a small, simple, and special ceremony in this beautiful landscape that we love. I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon Casa Escondida's elopement packages through some late night googling. Ernesto helped to plan the perfect celebration for us and our 3 guests. I especially appreciated how open and considerate Ernesto was of us as a queer couple in the planning of the event. He didn't make any assumptions when it came to pronouns, flowers, or the names we would call each other as a married couple. He made sure to ask first which was so thoughtful and made us feel even more at ease and sure of our choice. It really was the most magical day and that is a huge thanks to Ernesto and his staff!

My friend found this super cute bed and breakfast in the Chimayo area and we were able to book…read moreCasita Escondido Suite which was a cozy, one-bedroom adobe suite right next to the main house complete with a kiva fireplace (my favorite part!!!) My friend took the queen bed in the main room while I slept on the comfortable day bed in the sitting room. Our room also had a kitchen area which we used to make some nighttime tea. In the morning we enjoyed breakfast in the main building. Coffee, juice, fruit bowl, and southwest quiche. It is no wonder Casa Escondida Bed & Breakfast is often rated the number one bed and breakfast in Northern New Mexico. Personally, my only 'complaint' was we called in advance to ensure we could be on property early AND that there was reliable wifi as my friend needed to log on Zoom for tutoring. Unfortunately, the wifi was not reliable at all and Zooming was not a possibility. Hopefully it has since been resolved. If you're looking for a relaxing place to stay in the Chimayo area, I recommend Casa Escondida!

What it is, however, is authentic and true to its history and its location. No TV, no cell service (at least not if you have AT&T). Hardwood floors, viga ceilings, kiva fireplaces. The floorboards may squeak and the beds may too, but if you just will allow yourself to settle into the spirit of this place you will find some mighty fine relaxation. And for that you may need to spend a couple of nights (we always stay 5), visit the Santuario, enjoy the wonderful breakfasts delivered to your room on TV trays (muffin, fresh fruit, yogurt, juice, and coffee/tea), and eat all meals across the road at Rancho de Chimayo. Rooms Uno, Seis, and Siete have outside balconies with small sitting areas, well worth the small extra expense if the weather allows you to enjoy them. Uno and Siete are on the road so if the sound of cars passing by affects your sleep, then opt for an interior room; we find the sound very comforting, somehow reassuring knowing that the working world keeps on moving while we're still comfortably tucked in. I hear a car or two around 6 or so and then promptly go right back to sleep. You will not meet nicer, more caring hosts anywhere. As an added benefit, prices are considerably less than Santa Fe, which is only 35 minutes away; we usually go into SF to spend the day on Mondays when Rancho de Chimayo is closed.

Wait for it--- No TV, No phone and No wi-fi. You were lucky if you had a bar on your cell phone. It was exactly what we needed. Wood filled the box outside the room just waiting to be burned. The wood floors crept as you walked and the tiny refrigerator held snacks and beverages. We slept like babies and woke to fresh air and breakfast to order at Rancho de Chimayo across the street. This weekend left us well rested and grateful for the silence.
