Perfect!
Tom’s place was absolutely perfect! The bathroom and kitchen are clean and modern. The bed is firm but comfortable. I got the best sleep I’ve had in a while! The location is great. It was quiet with a fantastic view of the stars. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe. Highly recommended!

4 stars out of 5
Everything about this place is excellent; great location, exceptionally clean, well appointed, friendly owners... with one exception. The bed is some kind of memory foam that was VERY firm and, for us, very uncomfortable. Perhaps it just takes some time to get used to it, but our four night stay was clearly not enough. We could not stay here again.

Quiet and clean
This casita is a cute place to stay that is somewhat away from the hustle and bustle of the main street. Beautiful view from the patio doors shows the Sandia mt in various degrees of lighting, always changing. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet. The property is gated as well. Ample cooking space if needed. Great for a couple to get away yet be close enough to enjoy Santa Fe or Albuquerque. This was our 2nd visit there!

Comfy, cozy Casita
We really enjoyed our stay at Tom’s & Kelly’s Casita! It was perfect for our visit to Albuquerque and the Balloon Fiesta! Good (quiet) location in Rio Rancho to catch a Park & Ride and get to the balloon field. Tom & Kelly were the nicest hosts. We definitely would recommend their sweet Casita!!

The property was just as advertised - clean, stocked with the necessities, convenient location. I was in town for a weekend hockey tournament, and the Casita was exactly what I needed to be comfortable between games.

Safe, Clean, Easy access, hospitable hosts.
A friend and i reserved this VRBO several months before our actual visit. They did not forget us and we received good directions etc a couple days before we left for Albuquerque. The apt is behind the main house. You cannot see a picture of the apt. What you see is the owners main house. It would be nice to also see the apt. The apt was clean and we had everything we needed for our 4 day stay. We were attending a convention of Jehovah's Witnesses near by. It only took us 10 minutes to get to the Star Center. We were very pleased with our stay and hope to visit again next year. Thank you for your hospitality.. (I sleep in a recliner and this apt had 2 recliners so I was very happy to get good night's sleep every night,)

Wonderful Stay in a Great Location!
We recently stayed at this fantastic house and had an incredible experience. The amenities were top-notch, making our stay both comfortable and convenient. The kitchen was fully equipped and all the utensils we needed. The living room was cozy with a comfy couch and a big screen TV, perfect for family movie nights. The bedroom was spacious, with soft linens and plenty of storage space, and the bathroom was clean and well-maintained, stocked with fluffy towels and toiletries. The location was perfect – nestled in a quiet neighborhood yet close to all the local attractions. Our host was outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. They were incredibly responsive and provided detailed instructions for check-in and check-out. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located place to stay with an exceptional host. We can't wait to return!

Easy and breezy.
We were there for two weeks and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We were off going places and doing things every day so were not around during most of the day. Our hosts were helpful, engaging, and very easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a casita to stay in to look here for a day or a couple of weeks.

We stayed here for 4 nights. I loved the privacy and the secure parking in this gated property. The place was clean and comfortable. The only slight negative was the counter.space in the bathroom, but nothing that would keep us from staying here again! The owners were VERY responsive and communicative. Enjoyed the stay!
