![]() ![]() The AC unit was the usual floor/wall unit - which as usual quite loud, but luckily since outside was cold, I did not need to use it too often and with just the ceiling fan, it was sufficient. Another small complain was that the TV channels was weirdly programmed - did take me some time to figure out the order of the different channels, especially the HD ones. There were 2 TV's provided, one in the living room area and the other in the bedroom. There was a working desk in the bedroom area and what I found very useful was international type adapter which to me was very unsual for hotels in the US. The wardrobe space was the usual size and the rest of the bathroom, the usual layout. There was the usual tea/coffee making facility, iron and hair dryer provided. The bed was comfortable, but I suspect that it was not a new mattrass as there was already moulded from usage, though for me it was still ok. Only minor complain would be the sink which was actually strangely a mini sink which did make washing a small challenge (water would get all over), but other than that, it was your typical Homewood Suite kitchenette. The kitchennette was sufficiently well equiped and clearly it was quite new including the utensils. This did ensure minimal noise from the outside. View was towards an empty lot (growing with wild grass/plants) and beyond that the residential area and the city lights and mountains. The living and kitchen area was in one room, while the bedroom and bathroom located in a separate room with each being spacious. ![]() It was indeed a much more spacious suite compare to other previous Homewood Suites that I've stayed before. However during the whole stay, the digital key would never arrive despite trying a few times to resend it. I was initially allocated a room on the 1st/ground floor, but requested for a higher floor and one on the 2nd floor was allocated (the property has only 3 floors).įound out later that my HHonors number was not sticking to the reservation so that explains why I could not do an online check-in. Arrived just before 1pm at the hotel and I was lucky to have been able to get a room. I had to drop by the front desk since I could not check-in online. The neighbourhood seems relatively safe and it is mainly a residential area with some commercial buildings in the area.įor me - the location was good as I was heading towards Rio Rancho, so I was never really caught up in either morning or evening traffic. In the hotel I did see that there was a complimentary shuttle (weekends only if I remember correctly) to a certain casino/resort (can't remember which one). There are a couple of shopping center about 5 mins by car. Around the hotel there are not much, except 2 chain restaurants, Denny's and Crocker Barrel. The hotel is easily accessible to the I-25 and the Paseo Del Norte Blvd. The hotel is located north of Albuquerque, about 20-25 mins drive from Sunport airport (on a good day) and about 10-15 mins from downtown ABQ. However it has recently gone through a major renovation including what I believe is a addition of a new building/wing. This hotel has been around for quite a while based on the different online reviews.
