This property is absolutely beautiful! We were greated by Wayne he was very welcoming and friendly. He gave us a tour of the property and offered suggestions on places to visit. This place is relaxing and romantic, perfect for couples. Breakfast was great, but I wish the hours could be adjusted to end a bit later in the morning.

Loved this place!
We only stayed one night but really enjoyed this B&B. We had our own little casita which was tastefully decorated and very comfy. Wayne gave us great suggestions for dinner and was a fantastic host. We had an awesome breakfast with southwest style eggs benedict, asparagus, fruit, homemade bread, juices and tasty local coffee. Great way to start the morning! We would stay again if in Santa Fe!

Our stay was only one night, but now that we know, we will be making this our stop when we travel in this area. Our little casita was perfect with everything you would want- and add secured parking. Wayne was great- makes you feel comfortable and important. Lastly, the breakfast topped off our stay!

We loved our stay at this charming bed & breakfast. The rooms are almost like individual tiny houses with their own doors opening onto he courtyard/parking area. The owner was very friendly, and breakfast was home cooked and delicious. Parking on site was safe & convenient. The highlight was the woodburning fireplace which we enjoyed in our cozy traditionally decorated room. Overall a charming, comfortable place to stay, I would stay here again!

Cozy and charming little bed and breakfast place in the heart of art district in Santa Fe. The owner takes care of the guests: from the arrival with a comprehensive guide about Santa Fe attractions, notable places to visit, and restaurants, to a delicious breakfast served on the patio. Enjoyed my stay and if again in Santa Fe, will definitely stay there!

First time.
Breakfast was fantastic. Room was excellent. Very comfortable with restocked water and sparkling water. My TV didn’t work for both nights, but the innkeeper tried to fix it both nights I was there. Very friendly, comfortable. My room location was good and bad. Right across the patio from the breakfast room. Beautiful, but people were outside in the open area as of 730am. Bernardo and Wayne were very friendly and helpful. I saw another guest being supplied with everything they needed for a picnic, including a table and chairs! I would come back, and perhaps ask for a different room. Very safe. Off street parking in a gated area.
