Had a great stay. Easily walkable to bars, restaurants, and shops. Great time in Taos.
4.7
Sweet little place pretty close to town! Perfect for two people. We ate out most meals, but the kitchen had most things needed for preparing meals too. The weather wasn’t the greatest or we would’ve spent more time out on the deck area and hot tub. Nice Mountain View and the stars were bright when the clouds moved out. The only things missing were dish towels and a blanket for the cooler nights to snuggle up in. Overall a neat place.
4.7
Property was cute and convenient to town and Taos Ski Valley. Very comfortable for two people. We brought a crock pot to have a home cooked meal which worked out perfectly. Our stay was during a fairly significant winter storm but we were cozy and tucked away with beautiful views when the storm would break. Thank you to the hosts for going above and beyond to make this trip perfect!!

Cute little lofted studio apartment. Pictures are accurate. Apartment was easy to find but a little tricky driving in/ out of down the alley behind the main house. Only downfall was that any food we left on the counter would be attacked by ants (even things in plastic containers). Otherwise everything was great!

Pros: Cute, Simple, Centrally located.
Cons: Parking, Keys, Shared Hot tub, heating
We really liked the vibe of the apartment. It’s the top apartment of a converted garage (basically). So you stay in the back yard of the host and access through an alley. It’s a single room, so kitchen, bed and bathroom are tight within, so be comfortable with who you go with.
You share the hot tub with your downstairs neighbor, make sure you understand that. I own a truck, so getting in and out of that alley was a nightmare. I had to park on the other street and with two kids, became a pain in the butt.
IT’s baseboard heating so it takes a while to warm up. which is fine, makes for good snuggles.
We stayed with two kids so it made it challenging but if it were just my wife and I, it would have been easier.

Explanation on how to get to property via the alley could be better

This is a rustic place but an easy 8-10 minute walk to the plaza area. Bring soap, shampoo, lotions, as not really provided. Wish light switches were clearly marked, as we spent time finding them in very unconventional locations. Parking area for 2 cars is extremely tight. Not sure a truck or large SUV could get in and out into narrow alley. Hot tub was nice.

good location. Well equipped kitchen. Could use new furniture on deck, broken chairs.

We had a great time in Taos. The location was perfect we enjoyed the cute little place. super easy for check in and check out.

Be Prepared for Noise
The unit was a little run down but serviceable. Unfortunately it is located next to the owners back yard resulting in noise from kids and dog. Not relaxing. Would not stay there again.

Great Studio
This studio was perfect! Perfect location - easy walk to all the shops and restaurants Taos has to offer! On site owner was very responsive, helpful ad very friendly! Highly recommend!
4.7
Nice host and place. Needs a refresh
The place is walking distance to everything in town. The onsite host was responsive and kind. The shower is hot with good pressure, & there is a view of the mountains. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking though we did not cook during our stay.
The carpet is definitely ready for a refresh and the bedding quilt needed a good washing.

The directions were a little confusing the way we came in, but once we found it we had a covered parking spot ( which was amazing when it snowed! ) Overall Pros & Cons:
PROS: Location!!! The Studio is walking distance to downtown, so we were able to walk just about everywhere we wanted. The private balcony was nice for our dogs who like to sun bathe & the private hot tub area was very relaxing. The studio is spacious enough for 2 people and 2 dogs but I could see it getting cramped with more. Someone had complained about the size of the shower but it was a lot larger then anticipated & they even extended the top, but a rain head on & closed it in so it stayed nice and warm. The view with the bottom portion of the window down was beautiful but the shades were broken ( multiple strings broken so they would haphazardly open and close ) and once open, a direct view in to the owners backyard. Plenty of pots and pans, but lacking regular cups and while the hot tub area says no glass, it's hard to abide by those rules when only 4 glass glasses are provided. We improvised, but would've been nice.
CONS: Ok, at first glance the studio was clean. Now I'm not OCD but I do like it "clean" not just surface clean. When we arrived it was super late and we were exhausted. I went to make up the bed and pulled back the sheets to reveal some questionable stains. There were extra blankets in the closet so I thought I would just trade out. One of the blankets had "male fluids" for lack of better words, the other a down comforter full of pubic hair & then a light weight that was the only clean one. Luckily we brought our own sheets and pillows so I traded that out. The Bed. Wow! That is a well "used" mattress. It sags and droops all over and while firm in some spots, too firm, soft in spots, too soft. I had read someone elses feedback & brought a 4 inch memory topper for my side since I am a little more picky, but even my husband who can sleep just about anywhere said it hurt his back and neck.
Cleanliness over all was lacking. The sink had all these bugs, I pulled up the blinds to see where they were coming from & the entire window was full of them. They were throughout the house and very much alive, some dead. Light fixtures full of bugs, carpet was nasty & no where dry for wet boots, so it just made everything wet. Noise. You can hear EVERYTHING. And when the kids are jumping on their trampoline their in your room. While the location was good we wont be back.

Everything one person or a couple needs in Taos. Not fancy but who needs that nowadays. Hot tub was nice but could've been a little hotter. Walking distance to downtown and restaurants. Really just used as a home base for a ski trip. Well played all around. Would return if I come back to Taos.

We had a lovely time in this little apartment! Johnny and Kate were perfect hosts - obviously on the property and ready to handle things if necessary, but also warmly not-in-our-business. They cleared snow from the porch multiple times through the day (as it fell!). The pictures don't really capture how cool the wood is inside. Overall excellent place!

Overall we had a great stay, there were a few issues that I was wondering if we could be compensated for. Both mornings when we woke up, the temperature in the room was 52 degrees and very cold. There was a space heater but the host needed it the second night for her personal home. There were also no amenities like soap, shampoo, or a sponge. Make sure you are with people that you are very close with because the bathroom is not closed in, meaning the top rafters are open to the room so you can hear (and smell) everything. Besides that we had an excellent stay, but I would appreciate some sort of credit or refund for the heat not working both days.

Once we figured out how to turn on the heat (thermostat in the bathroom) we got warm and cozy for a wonderful Taos Wool Festival weekend. Close to everything and walking distance to Plaza for Saturdays am Farmers Market in the season. Bed was comfortable.

Well located studio
The studio is a good value and came as described. Well located with an easy walk to old town. Lovely deck for an evening glass of wine. Had almost everything we needed. Three small suggestions to make it even better.
The high temps on the day we arrived were in the 90s (probably around the mid-80s when we actually got there) and we had communicated with the owner that we would be arriving around 5:30. The unit was locked up tight and was easily in the mid-80s inside. Opened the windows and the wind cooled things off. Then turned on the AC till the outside temps got to the high 70s. Would have been great if it had been opened up before.
Better quality TP.
Check out requirement is to clean your own dishes and while we did a thorough job it made us all of a sudden consider what shape the utensils the previous occupant had left them in. If this was a host responsibility it would have never crossed our mind.
Again those are just suggestions to make a good value stay a great one.

The best part of this property is the beautiful view of the mountains. We grilled on the deck and it was great. Parking was a problem because two vehicles wouldn’t fit when people came to stay in the property below. The carpet is seriously filthy but the shower/bath is nice.

Taos with beautiful views
We enjoyed this property and the Mountain View was beautiful.
Several issues:
Parking with a larger vehicle was impossible if both properties were booked. We had to park on the street.
There is some rotting on the deck that caught a foot and twisted an ankle. Would be good to swap out the rotted board.
The carpet has reached its expiration. The tile floors are good.
We had family over and grilled burgers. The grill was good.
Overall a nice stay.
Thanks!

Great Potential but…
This unit has great potential but misses the mark on cleanliness and maintenance. Next door neighbors are not happy about short term rentals. Also neighborhood has a rooster so sleeping in is not an option. On-site owner is very responsive.

We really enjoyed our stay - the views of the mountains were beautiful, place was clean and the patio was larger than I realized. Great location and within blocks to numerous restaurants, galleries and shops. Great place to stay in Taos!

The house is beautiful and the views are spectacular. The only suggestion would be to have a umbrella on the porch as we were unable to sit on the porch/deck during the day because of the sun. Thanks

Stay in Taos
Property has great location and great view of the mountains. Nice setup inside the apartment for short stay.
The property, however, could use some work such as painting and new carpet.

Cozy and good location
We enjoyed our visit to Taos and our stay at this rental property. We have two small children, 5 and 7, and found this to be just enough size. The unit has a large bed and a pullout couch that you'll want to put back in during the day. Swamp cooler worked well to cool the place off, although a bit loud when running.
Since it's an upper level, above another room, it had a great view of the mountains and a nice large outside porch. We did not have any issues with noise from us or vice-versa. The location was good, close to the downtown shopping areas and central to the whole area for the activities we did such as river rafting, visiting the bridge, and a day-trip UTV'ing in Red River. The hot tub was in a private porch area, so even though it's shared it's still private if it's just your family in there.
Its nice that Taos and Red River are so close, so you can get two different types of vacations in the same vicinity. The owner lives on the same property in the main house, separated by the back yard and walk ways. We had a bit of a challenge getting checked in since the unit was not left open by the cleaner as expected, but that was resolved in about 10 minutes. Its recommended that there be a couple more signs to make the areas clear of what is private and what is for the guests.
I'd stay here again if I were to go to Taos.
