8/10 Good
"Beautiful room, we enjoyed the fireplace the most. The flashlight key rings were helpful in the pitch black night. Thank you for the guest laundry room. A few things to improve if anyone in leadership reads this: Housekeeping missed us despite my attempts to request housekeeping at the front desk. It might help to have a door sign to clean the room, there was none. The single small sink was not good. Water splashed forward and sideways no matter how you tried. It’s just not the right sink design for a bathroom. Also we had a few spiders in our room, understandable because of the wilderness around and the rain. But perhaps some pest control might be considered. The staff were wonderful, especially the restaurant staff."

Casa Ambrosia: Unique Adobe Home with Mountain Views in a Beautiful River Valley

10/10 Excellent
"Rural and remote get-away, Just outside small village of El Rito. Great place to experience the heritage of northern New Mexico. Adobe house with ancient puebloan features is a wonder of craftsmanship. Two story tower holds 2 beadrooms - both levels a lovely stay and include desk space for writing and reflecting. Good wifi. Lovely view out over neighboring ranches horse pastures and surrounded by both sagebrush and forest. Visited by deer, coyote and lots of birds. Fully equipped kitchen and laundry helps a longer stay. 20 min drive east to Ojo Calients hot springs resort. Half hour north of Abiquiu and the Georgia Okeeffe Center. Gracious host good at communication. Highly recommend."
