Cute and modern, the Taos Motor Lodge has been carefully restored and is very welcoming. However, it is located on the far south side of town, making it a bit of a journey into the heart of Taos. Most rooms gave the highway, so light and noise also creep in, but over all, a good value for Taos.

Sparkling clean, comfortable bed. On the highway at the end of town. Put the climate control on “constant fan” for white noise. Bring an eye shade of light bothers you. Travel with a power strip. Our room had only one outlet on one side of the bed. Had to charge phones and watches across the room. Friendly staff, modern decor. Keurig, micro fridge and microwave in the spacious room.

I appreciated a door separating the two beds to offer a degree of privacy and quiet for a good night's sleep. The second bed is in the kitchen near the bathroom. The exit sign was very bright and needed to be covered to get any sleep. The service handling financial transactions and check-in was frustrating.

Weekend stay
The room was comfortable. It was a suite and the room was interesting. The windows were large and the room was sunny and bright. The hotel was quiet and restful.

At 8:30pm, hotel called us I guess to confirm we were still coming even though the website states that the office is open until 10pm. We checked in at 9pm after which the clerk promptly closed the office. We needed a little ice but that was in the closed office. Also only decaf in our room and we couldn't get regular because the clerk left early. We went to a gas station for coffee at 5am. The water pressure was low, taking a long time to rinse hair. The beds are low to ground. It wasn't a bad stay but the clerk leaving early impacted this review.

This is a nice little motel that is close to everything in Taos - of course, Taos is a small place! It was clean and quiet and had a nice bed and modern styling. One caveat, it would be better if there was another place in the bathroom to hang clothes, like maybe a hook on the door. But that is a small thing. Overall it was a good room in a nice quiet motel.

Disorganized
They didn’t have the airstream I booked, specifically so I’d have a kitchen. Apparently the people before me didn’t check out. The hotel seemed very disorganized. They offered to reimburse me for my stay, if I wanted to go somewhere else. There was nothing available in Taos, so I had to stay with them. I didn’t stay the second night, asked to reimbursed for that night and I never heard back from them. However, the people at the front desk were very nice and the room they put me in was very cute, just not the one I had planned on.
