It was like walking into your own home - seriously a great space! Great location, just minutes from downtown Taos, and just minutes from Taos Sky Valley. Beautiful views out the front, and a nice quiet courtyard out the back. The unit itself is very nicely decorated with a fully equipped kitchen. Highly recommend!!
