The photos were deceiving regarding the space a king suite had. The rooms are ice cold due to concrete walls and single pane windows. Need mini splits in each room, not just the living area.

Not an honorable business!
We used to stay here due to its great location near our business in Santa Fe. I won't ever stay here again though! I realized within seconds of when i hit the "book" button that i had the wrong month. Immediately called them back & they refused to change the date, even after talking to the manager've never had that happen before. I wasn't even there for this stay but had to pay for it. BAD business guys!

Liked: Room comfort
Decent, but
I do not recommend staying here if you traveling alone. The parking lot and the area right outside the rooms is not well lit at night. In order to walk to and from your room, you might have to traverse the hotel's large dark parking lot (depending on the room location). It felt pretty creepy. The room itself was decent. The room seemed recently updated, but not updated with care. Cleanliness was good, not great. There were some noticeable flecks on the carpet, and I didn't investigate if they were dirt or damage to the carpet. The shower was warm, at best. Plus: Location Decent room Price Minus: Safety, not a good vibe Feels cheap

The only problem we had was with the shower. We stayed on the second floor. Not sure if that’s important. One of the shower doors doesn’t open so you cannot turn on the shower without getting wet So cold water in your face

Our room was fine. Nice comfortable beds. Housekeeping was accommodating but very little hand soap was supplied. Bathroom had no heating vents and was very, very cold for a decent shower. Enjoyed all the Christmas decorations.

El Sendero was great. Based on the location, we thought it would be a little more "up-scale" but it is more of a motel style set-up, with entry from the room directly to the outside. However, the rooms are recently updated and very comfortable. The cost was great, and the location is unbelievably good, right in the heart of Santa Fe. I'm glad we found it and we enjoyed it!
