Room in a guest suite

Your own room in a home, plus access to shared spaces.
Just a short walk to Old Town Plaza, the Albuquerque Museum of Art, the New Mexico Museum of History, art galleries, shopping, restaurants, and breweries. Tucked inside an adobe home, the space offers serene courtyards, a grape arbor, and blooming rose gardens, all behind classic adobe walls.

The bedroom features its own private entrance and a peaceful view of the rose garden, creating a true sanctuary. Perfect for solo adventurers, couples, or business travelers.

The space
The suite accommodates two guests. There is a private entrance to a bedroom and bath with the New Mexican charm of adobe plastered walls, viga ceilings, and Mexican tiles. A desk and love seat provide additional space for work or rest. A large built-in bookcase and large closet provide ample storage. The closet has an area with a refrigerator, coffee pot, and microwave oven. The bathroom has two sinks and a jacuzzi tub with a shower.

A high adobe wall surrounds the home with privacy and serenity. Behind the wall are brick walkways to flagstone patios with seating areas, rose gardens, and a grape arbor. The Sanctuary Suite offers you an enchanting New Mexican experience in the urban complex that is the Old Town/Downtown neighborhood.

Guest access
You can use the courtyard on the side and front and back of the house as weather permits.

I’m happy to spend time with my guests or give them space
As a native New Mexican, traveling has filled me with wonder at the beauty that greets me in the people and places I see. It is always gratitude and joy I feel when I return home to my enchanting piece of the world in New Mexico that binds me with family and friends in places near and far. The folk art, the music, and the stories I love are my encounter collections. As a retired public school teacher, and in my various roles in public health care, I have gathered a wonderful collection of life experiences that affirms "that the world is a beautiful place and life is so short."
