Everything was as advertised. My only suggestion is a bath mat and a grab bar for those of us who are older. Our stay was really good. We especially enjoyed the patio.

fully appointed vacation rental. In an Historic neighborhood in Taos.

I stayed here with my elderly mother to experience the quiet ambience of Taos. It is close to the Plaza and eateries. The rental property has everything you need to be comfortable. We enjoyed our 2nd stay here. My mother is from Taos and feels very happy and welcome here when we come to visit family.

So lovely!

We had a great time staying at Patty's spot! Coincidentally, I also have stayed at her neighboring until a few years prior and both were extremely lovely. They know how to host! We walked to dinner every night (even in the winter) and really enjoyed their location and spot. Perfect for what we were looking for.
