Customer Reviews for Garrett's Desert Inn
Best bargain on the plaza - posted on 01/16/2007
Old fashioned motel, but clean, worth-the-money. One might hope for longer restaurant hours, but they were as accommodating as they could be within that constraint. Extremely well-situated. Will definitely stay there again. Hotel staff very helpful.
Needs refurbishing - posted on 09/04/2006
The location is great, right off the plaza. But you are paying high prices for the location, not the room. The sofa bed had the comfortability of a bean bag chair. The carpeting was torn and stained. The mini-suite has a very small bedroom with a full-size bed, not even a queen-size would fit. Nothing of luxury or even comfortability here. The small bathroom window and the bedroom window look out on the river right below. That was nice. They really need to spend some money fixing up the rooms.
location alone must keep this motel open - posted on 07/03/2006
It looks cute and clean from the outside with new doors on the rooms and wonderful flower boxes...but, the inside was not clean. The only plus was the friendly staff. The floors and linens where old and sticky feeling. We would not even walk around w/o shoes on. The bed was so hard and the overall room was very outdated. The ad read newly redecorated, but I felt very deceived and uncomfortable. I won't stay here again as other places offer equal rates with much nicer accomadations.

What a great suprise! This sweet motelish spot with it's heated pool, friendly staff, spotless rooms and of course a perfect location now allows me to visit my favorite santa fe more often as the price cannot be beat. I loved sitting on the sunny balcony with the flower boxes. Very clean, updated and safe and right across the street from "The Pink"!
Great location. Bad night's sleep. - posted on 09/28/2005
You can't beat the location! Garretts Desert Inn is within a short walk of numerous shops, restaurants, and sites. But our room decor was outdated, including a very old and uncomfortable bed.
