Heavenly Views
This property was perfect for my stay. The bed was extremely comfortable and the apartment itself had everything a person (or couple) could need. In addition, it was located right by the tram entrance and the views of both the mountains and valley were exquisite.

Great view, relaxing
Great communication with the owners, very responsive and helpful. I especially enjoyed the outdoor table in the shade with a tranquillizing view of Albuquerque, with the pool below. And the owner kept the pool clean.

Beautiful location
It is small, but fit our needs perfectly. The location is great with beautiful views from the big back deck. A lot of wonderful hiking trails near here. It's literally at the base of the tram. We will definitely come back when we are in the area.

Fantastic Hosts, Fabulous Accommodations
The whole place was so nicely put together, very cozy and welcoming, exactly as it's represented in the online description. I really appreciated the easy directions and communication with the hosts, and the location just at the base of the Sandia Tram was perfect! I went hiking, and what a gorgeous location. Thanks for making it available!

Awesome Place with Great Hosts!
Spent the week in Albuquerque to visit family over the holidays. Growing up in Albuquerque, this place and the location is perfect for seeing what Albuquerque is all about. The accommodations are better than advertised. We loved the quit and quaint location and the layout of the room. It was perfect for us and the hosts were extremely attentive and very nice. We would definitely stay here again!

A peaceful retreat
In Albuquerque visiting family, including 2 busy teenagers and 2 working parents. Our VRBO provided a comfortable and very scenic retreat away from the hubub that comes with that stage in life, while allowing us to be just minutes away. We were well cared for and enjoyed the hospitality. We will be back!!

Great view
Great view of the city, very close to tram, basics are provided, outside patio is probably a lot more appealing in the warmer months, but host was very nice.

Beautiful View @ night
Quaint little place with a lot of extras provided. Pool was dirty or stained. A/c unit was very loud for a small place. We had to turn tv up very loud to hear over a/c. For the price it is worth the money.

Amazing!!!
The views and location were well above our expectations. Lisa thought of everything - including a great supply of k-cups! The only thing we were disappointed with was the pool - we had been told it wouldn’t be heated at this time, which was ok. But it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. Overall it was an amazing stay & would highly recommend. Thanks!

The essentials
We stay at VRBO so that we can cook. The cooking set could easily be upgraded. We were quickly given a pot on request. It's just that as I started preparing dinner, I realized there wasn't proper cooking supplies all around. Very nice other than the before mentioned

Amazing views
This is a lovely place, hosts are incredible, never had some many supplies in a vrbo. Plenry of bottled water, cold and room temperature, coffee, amazing different teas, plenty of towels etc. Bed is nice, kitchenette a bit small, but who wants to make a big dinner on vacation anyway. So perfect doable to make a nice breakfast. Good size fridge and feezer, microwave, coffeemaker etc. And then the amaxing view, nothing better the sitting on the big patio and enjoying the view with a nice drink. The homeowners are amazing fast to respond to any concern or question you have. So really recommend this place.

Perfect for one & outdoor recreation
The property is in a beautiful and scenic location. The hosts were friendly and generous. They went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The space worked great for myself. It was easily accessible and had everything I needed for my week-long trip to Albuquerque. The property is perfectly located for outdoor recreation—the trail system is amazing! I never drove more than 15 minutes to a trailhead. Grocery stores, restaurants, etc. are only a few minutes away. I always had an easy time getting around. Traffic was never an issue. Thank you for the wonderful stay!!

Couldn't ask for more
This was a very pleasant place to stay. It was clean, the view was beautiful, and it had everything we needed. Given that this was in the middle of a road trip, having access to the laundry was a godsend.
