• Awesome locations with quirks

  4/5

  My wife and I are extremely tolerable of tiny quirks a rental home can have, and while we loved this stay, I do think some constructive criticism would help bring this home to an A+ in my books.

  The good:

  - It’s coziness and proximity to downtown (we walked down there almost every day)

  - Proximity to Darcy park for our pups

  - The bed and pillows are super comfortable

  - The lighting!

  The needs improvement:

  - My wife and myself slipped on the flooring many times and if someone who is a little less athletically inclined were to slip like we did, they could get seriously hurt, suggestion: to make it non-slip with some type of clear top coat.

  - The shower doesn't drain and overflowed within an minute of showering, the door hardware was also broken, so it would fall off the glides

  - The ANTS!!! I understand it is an old adobe mud home and seals may not be great, but there were so many ants in the kitchen and bathroom sink, even when no food was present.

  - Change the listing to show "Share Amenities" means the backyard. We have reactive dogs and we thought from the photos we would be able to let our dogs out the door and hang out there off leash but there was a lot of in and outs by different people.

  - The left front hot plate on the stove doesn't work

  - The front door doesn't latch, only the deadbolt and when it’s windy it makes a banging

  PS. Don't take these negatively, we loved it here, just need to do some upgrades/routine maintenance within the house.

• Wonderful host, not so great studio

  2/5

  First of all, the host was very helpful and accommodating, a pleasure to deal with. The studio, and especially the patio outside, is artistic and interesting. Within walking distance to the plaza and galleries. However, inside it was very dark (not like in the pictures), dusty, with pet and human hairs everywhere, dirty fridge and dishes. The toilet is hidden in a tiny closet with absolutely no ventilation of any kind, dreadful to use.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Natalie, we take guest feedback seriously and passed your comments on to the homeowner who would like to share the following:
  - Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the artistic and interesting patio area, as well as the convenient location near the plaza and galleries.
  - We apologize if the cleanliness of the studio did not meet your expectations. The studio was deep cleaned professionally prior to your stay, and we take cleanliness very seriously.
  - Additionally, there are ample light switches available for guests to adjust the lighting to their preference, which may help alleviate any concerns about the space feeling dark. As for the toilet enclosure, we apologize if it felt cramped or uncomfortable to use. While no one has ever referred to this particular detail before.
  We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.

• Beautiful place with fine service by the owner.

  3/5

  The low rating reflects the fact that Evolve bungled the start date of the reservation. They confirmed for me that they had moved it up from 1/6/24 to 1/4/24, but they did not communicate that change to the property owner.

• great stay

  5/5

  We enjoyed our stay. The property was walking distance to most areas in downtown Santa Fe, and away from the majority of the noise associated with downtown. We would recommend this property if you want a nice retreat while staying in Santa Fe.
