This property desperately needs an update. Worn furniture, missing baseboards, bed slopes downhill. Worst part was the sticky kitchen floor. Bedroom a/c would not shut off. We love Residence Inn. Albuquerque Airport location was 10/10

Liked the location. Staff was engaging and present at front desk. disappointed in the cleaning staff-found food particles on sofa behind pillow, 2 of 3 bottles low or empty in bathroom-even after "thorough cleaning" mid week, same breakfast all week, put out too much food product all at once that sat for too long and became overly dry, milk not chilled properly

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The check in process was terrible; was in line behind 8 others checking in and only 1 clerk. The night clerk was not nice! It was 8pm and the rooms were not clean yet and the housekeeper was rude. The room we rented was amazing but the kitchen floor was gross and sticky. Breakfast was decent. One of our toilets was clogged and we were given a plunger to plunge it ourselves; just not a great experience overall.
