What a lovely home! It was perfect for our visit to ABQ for UNM Family Weekend. Close to campus as well as the biopark and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The home itself is comfortable and clean, with a great back patio and lots of light. The kitchen is great, and we appreciated the tea and sparkling water. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

This is a very clean, well stocked, and cozy home. The house was writhin a 15-20 minute drive of everything we wanted to do during our weekend in Alb. Upon arrival I was so happy to find a fully stocked kitchen and plenty of linens for our stay. Kris thought of every need and even provided extra fans for the bedrooms. The back patio was perfect to enjoy the crisp clear morning. The front entrance is well lit for returning after dark. I would stay here again and I would recommend this home to anyone looking for small home in a quiet neighborhood.

Lovely Nob Hill Stay

The property is within walking distance of the fun Nob Hill shops and restaurants. But the neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are friendly. The place was well appointed and really comfortable. The eclectic artwork made it extra special. Will definitely look at staying here again next time I'm in town!

Albuquerque in February

This was a great place for relaxing in Albuquerque. The location is perfect for us - close to Nob Hill and walkable to the University, not to mention all manner of shops and restaurants and even an independent movie theater and a food coop. Kris made the experience simple. Access was easy, place is very comfortable, clean and welcoming. It couldn’t be better. We’ll be back.

This place is awesome!

We have stayed at numerous VRBO's, and this one is definitely our favorite. It is comfortable, cozy and immaculate. The home was thoughtfully well stocked with bathroom and kitchen items. We spent a good deal of time sitting on the back patio, including eating our meals out there. The neighborhood was really nice and very accessible to I40. Loved this place and plan to book again!

She provided many special touches that we did not expect. If we ever stay in Albuquerque again, we will definitely get in touch with Kris.

Beautiful, clean and cozy!

We stayed in this property for three days on a mini vacation with our son, who is 15. We love the property, very easy to find, very clean, very easy to communicate with owner, she’s an excellent host. We communicated over texts in the VRBO app. She answered quick and informative. The check-in was very easy as well, we got the code for the lock box before we arrived. I highly recommend this property and will definitely stay here again next time we’re coming to Albuquerque!

About the host

Hosted by Kristin (Kris) Neel

Host profile image
My name is Kris. I am a New Mexico transplant and have lived in Albuquerque since 2005. The NM landscape and culture has grown on me and I am happily rooted here now! I work in the clinical laboratory field in one of the big hospitals in town. It has been a challenging year or so, to say the least. My children both went to high school and college here, but now live out of state.
I am currently living with my significant other not far from the house. I like the idea of having it enjoyed by friends, family and visitors when I am not there.
I was a military brat growing up, so I have had the opportunity to travel and live in some beautiful places. To be in one place for this long enabled me to finally commit to buying a home and putting down roots. I love my little house and am happy to share it with people who will hopefully love it, too! Albuquerque and New Mexico both have so much to offer visitors! Enjoy your stay!

Why they chose this property

My home is in a beautiful neighborhood filled with young families, retired professionals and friendly people. It is walking distance to Route 66 (Central Avenue) and many of the galleries, shops and restaurants that line that road. The ART busses (Albuquerque Rapid Transit) have stops close by and will whisk you quickly to Old Town and Uptown.

What makes this property unique

The house at Marquette is close to the Albuquerque International Sunport, Kirtland AFB, two major hospitals, the Nuclear Museum, the University of New Mexico and numerous top-notch breweries. Quick access to both I-25 and I-40.
