"Former Route 66 motor court, now an appealing inn; many of its tasteful, mexican-themed rooms have their own gas fireplaces."

Avoid the few rooms in the inadequately sound-proofed two-storey buildings.

"Opened in 2001 after a full restoration, this stylish, upscale, modern property is designed in the style of an old-time Southwestern motor court, with the rooms set around a parking area."

"This white-painted adobe compound, here since the 1930s, offers the most character and best value of the Cerrillos Road motels."
