Definitely would stay again!

What a beautiful hotel with amazing views of the mountains and plenty of amenities whether in the hotel itself or nearby. Room was beautiful, clean and quiet. I called and used the automated guest services option from my room and requested additional coffee creamers. Ninety minutes later I called again since I still hadn’t received them and an hour after my second call I it the Do Not Disturb sign back on my door and went to bed. Never got the creamers

We chose this hotel because it is dog friendly. Our pup received a bandana, doggie bowl, and homemade doggie treats upon check in. He was treated like royalty. The room was beautiful, spacious, extremely clean, and very tastefully decorated. The bed was very comfortable. The views were incredible. Outside they had a pool table, ping pong, and bean bags - also the Santa Fe trail which goes right by the hotel. Everyone who worked there was very professional and nice. We will definitely return (with our pup who was ready to move in permanently)
