My stay at Garrett's Desert Inn was a mix of good and bad. The location is fantastic, making it easy to explore downtown Santa Fe, and I appreciated the vintage feel of the place despite the ongoing renovations. However, the service was lacking and the room conditions did not meet expectations, especially with the construction chaos and lack of proper amenities. It might be better once renovations are complete, but for now, there are definitely some shortcomings.
Rooms
5.0
The room I stayed in was spacious but had several issues. The overall cleanliness was adequate, but there were no lamps, and the carpet was loose. I also found it inconvenient that I had to put soap on the floor because there was no tray in the shower.
Service
5.0
The service left much to be desired. Staff was not very accommodating, and I struggled to get any assistance when I had issues with my room. It felt like they were overwhelmed with the ongoing construction.
Location
9.0
The hotel's location was one of its strong points. It's within walking distance of the plaza and Canyon Road, which made exploring the area a breeze.
Dining
5.0
Breakfast was quite disappointing. It consisted only of granola bars and packaged muffins, which was a letdown compared to what I've experienced at other places.
Facilities
5.0
The hotel had a pool area, but I noticed that some of the umbrellas were broken. The fitness amenities could use some attention to make it more inviting.
