ARRIVE Albuquerque
It was a lovely place and the staff were good except for an interaction with the large receptionist, she was extremely passive aggressive and brings the entire experience down. The rest of the experience was great.

The Clyde Hotel
The hotel is in very good shape and has a nice classic look to it. If you’re going to a convention there it is very convenient, however, if you’re visiting to see downtown it is a little out of the way for walking. Everything else is first rate.

Hotel Andaluz Albuquerque, Curio Collection by Hilton
We were very disappointed to arrive and be told that they had overbooked. While we were given a free room at a nearby Hilton Garden Inn, it was still a disappointing experience after a long flight.
