Elegant Private Guest House in Downtown

Enchanting 1906 home | newly remodeled guesthouse | friendly, welcoming, and walkable neighborhood | centrally located between Old Town and Downtown core | walking distance to many local favorites | free on-street parking.

This spacious 780 square foot guesthouse is the back half of our 1906 bungalow home in a historic downtown neighborhood. The newly remodeled 1 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath guesthouse has its own separate, private entrance from the main house where we live. The bedroom has one queen-sized bed and the living area includes a queen-sized high-quality pull-out sofa bed.

We love our neighborhood for its central location to Old Town and the Downtown Core. Our home is walking distance to many great restaurants, local breweries, parks, Rio Grande trails, hiking in the Sandias, and other attractions. We are also just a few minutes drive from the Balloon Fiesta Park.

We take pride in our home and in being your host.

During your stay as our guest, you’ll enjoy:

- complete access to the fully furnished guesthouse along with its outdoor patio area
- free access to the on-site laundry room which is shared with us. We provide all the laundry supplies, gratis.
- complementary cleaning service every 14-days
- free wifi and high speed broadband internet
- free on-street parking
- Walk to cafes, restaurants, bars, galleries, spas, shopping, parks, museums, neighborhood grocery store, farmers' market, public transportation, and more!

We are also just a few minutes drive from I-40, I-25, and 10 - 15 minutes from the airport.

NO SMOKING - Smoking is NOT permitted anywhere on our property. No exceptions.

RESPECT - As with anywhere you stay, please be respectful of the property and people you encounter. Treat our home as you would if it belonged to a close friend.

EXTRA GUESTS - Space accommodates up to four people. Extra fees may apply.

NO PARTIES - Parties, events, and gatherings are not allowed (unless previously agreed upon, in writing, at the time of booking/lease). Please mention if you plan to have guests over who are not included in your reservation.

QUIET HOURS - Quiet hours between 10 PM and 8 AM. Please be respectful.

DOWNTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD - Our neighborhood is friendly and welcoming. Still, it is located in an urban setting which includes occasional traffic and pedestrian noise typical of city life.

PET RULES - Small dogs (under 30 lbs) are allowed on a case-by-case basis and must be agreed upon, in writing, upon booking. Unfortunately, we cannot accept cats. Please keep pets off of the furniture (or bring a blanket to cover furniture), clean up any pet waste in the yard, and do not leave dogs unattended and barking in the home or yard. Pets are not permitted to be unattended in the yard.

PET FEE - Small dogs (under 30 lbs) are allowed on a case-by-case basis (unfortunately, we cannot accept cats). Please let us know BEFORE booking if you plan to bring a pet. A $500 refundable pet deposit is required (see lease) and an additional $50 cleaning feel will be added to your reservation after booking for the additional inside cleaning so that we can ensure the space is kept thoroughly cleaned for future guests who may have allergies.

PESTS - The house is regularly treated with non-toxic pest repellent. Still, bugs are a part of life here in the southwest. While we make every effort to keep it spotless for guests, we cannot completely control nature; therefore, you may see the occasional bug. Please be aware of this and make sure you're ok with the possibility before booking.

LONG STAYS - For stays of 18+ days, we require a mid-stay cleaning. If the stay will be 5+ weeks, mid-stay cleanings are required every 14 days.

Lovely Space in Downtown ABQ
This VRBO was a beautiful apartment. Very close to Old Town; 15 minute walk. Quite a few good restaurants and coffee shops in the neighborhood. Paul and Trudi live onsite and were very accessible, chatting and providing a helpful list of places to rest, bars and things to do in the area. The apartment is new and very nicely pt together. We will definitely stay here for our next trip. Thank you Paul and Trudi, for your generous hospitality
