Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We originally booked at the Santa Fe, but apparently our room had been damaged by a previous occupant. The owner met us and moved us to a different hotel he owns very close by which was quite nice. I cannot speak to the quality of the rooms at the Santa Fe since we never saw them, but I did want to put in a good word for the ownership who took great care of us during our four day stay. I would book here again.
