Had to stay at this place last minute so I was really glad that this place allowed dogs for free. The rooms are actually very cozy and well cleaned. Only reason they have four stars instead of five is because the doors seem like they've been through some trauma and are difficult to close or open. Area is very convenient to a lot of amenities, including a whole foods, green jeans, food Hall and freeway access. The walls are somewhat thin so be prepared to bring some ear plugs. Weekly cost for 7 days is $350. Water is hot, toilet flushed great. There is a Samsung TV and a full sized bed. There is no microwave, no fridge, no coffee maker, so just be prepared for that. Rooms are all designated non smoking but still smell strongly of cigarettes when you walk in. I have an air purifier which helps but it's still pretty strong. Beds are comfortable.

Staff was phenomenal. Rooms do not have microwave or fridges. For the price, the room was fine. Could have been a bit cleaner, though. There were food crumbs all over the floor. But, honestly, for the cost and friendliness of the staff, I would recommend staying here if travelling through.

We got in very late / early morning and Daniel was very helpful the motel only had a few rooms left, we needed to book our room for several nights he checked us in at a great rate. Was very professional and prompt. I should have posted this about a week and a half ago.... however. I just want to say that this has been one of the best Motel 6's I have stayed at. I am a local however I am in transition in moving and the staff has gone above and beyond to accommodate us. Pauline has made the stay here so easy as far as checking in and out making sure we had clean towels or if we wanted housekeeping.... thank you all so much.

What is the name of my preferred hotel in Albuquerque, considering their consistent upgrades to rooms with enhanced mattresses for greater comfort, and their exceptional staff, including housekeeping, who meticulously maintain the room according to my specific requests, for which I am truly appreciative and so affordable.
