Brief visit to Albuquerque
The casita is so cute with local art and neat textiles and was the perfect size for us and our two college-age sons. We walked each morning around the museums, the nearby park, and Old Town. The location is great and we appreciated its privacy, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. Will definitely stay again the next time we are in ABQ.

Great Place to Explore Albuquerque
My wife and I had a fantastic stay here with our two kids of elementary and middle-school ages. The walk to old town and back was pretty easy and there were many other activities in a very short driving distance. The rental itself was super cozy, with everything we needed. We felt safe and comfortable the whole stay.

Albuquerque Casita
This is a lovely home to stay. Sakari is an excellent host. This property is in a great location to Old Town and close grocery shopping. Everything was very clean and well appointed. Lovely outside area to sit in the evening w a glass of wine. Comfy beds. Sakari had thought of everything a traveler would need. Thank you for being a great host and sharing this lovely vacation rental.

Great Unit but Homeless Closeby
Super cute unit, well decorated and had everything we needed. The owners definitely know how to do this. The only thing is that we didn't feel safe. Sketchy area with transients walking around. Homeless people laying around in the morning. Not in the immediate yard of this unit but in the neighborhood. I would suggest a gate that we could have closed to keep our vehicle and yard closed off to any transients during the night. Many of the neighbors close off their yards at night and it would help as a safety precaution.

Enjoyable Spring Break!
The Casita was just as described, with everything needed for a family of 3 to enjoy their stay in ABQ. A bit of walking, but definitely within reason, to get to Old Town. We were comfy and pleased with the entire setup. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful stay
The house was super cold when we walked in but as soon as we turned on the heaters it warmed up quickly. The beds were comfy and the pots and pans selection was pretty nice.

Cozy place in the heart of the city
We stayed here for a week during the holidays as we were visiting family in town. The house was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. We were a group of 4 adults and were very happy with the accommodations. The home is cozy and well decorated. There were several space heaters plus wall units which we utilized because of the winter weather. There were also plenty of extra blankets, pillows and the beds were comfortable. There were also cabinets with games and puzzles to pass the time. Absolute great location to see many of the popular sites like Old Town (beautiful at Christmas time), museums, zoo, botanical gardens etc. For the farther attractions the freeway is literally 5 mins away. Would definitely stay here again.

Cute House
The house was clean, cute, and comfortable! We loved our stay in ABQ. The location is very industrial and not quite what we expected but close to Old Town (though not really walkable). Communication with the home owner and instructions were quick and clear. Recommend this house for stays in ABQ!

Short & Sweet Stay
We enjoyed our stay at this little Kaseeta. The neighborhood is up-and-coming and felt a little sketchy after dark but during the day it was Perfect for walks to local breweries and shops. The place was clean and well decorated. There were five of us who met from across the country to go to the hot air balloon festival, everything was so close, which made it perfect for our visit. We would definitely come back to this property. Thank you again for having us.

Perfect ABQ Stay!
My husband and I had such a great time staying at this casita. The place was clean and felt like a home away from home for a week. Old Town was just a short walk away and it was so nice and quiet at night for restful sleep. The place had everything we needed, including a full kitchen and a washer and dryer which came in handy after several days. Would definitely stay again!

We were super happy with our stay in this beautifully decorated, very clean casita. It had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Sakari was very responsive and was helpful when we needed are daughter’s grad books delivered there. The location is perfect. I can’t say enough good things about this place. We would definitely return 😀

perfect location
The location is within walking distance of restaurants and also museums and a park is also nearby. The neighborhood felt safe for walking. The rental was a good size but if you are fixing food be aware there is a very limited pantry. The coffee pot is a Keurig with only a few pods. It was very clean and I enjoyed my stay 100%.

We loved our stay at Sakari’s place in the Sawmill area! The place was perfectly described in the ad and perfectly furnished with everything that we needed. It is centrally located and close to the Old Town, but still nice and quiet. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to everyone.
