Photo gallery for The Silversmith's House - Old Town Adobe Casita

This house is considered a "shotgun house" which was typical of the early 1900's, because it's a straight shot from the front door to the back- through the living room, kitchen, and bedroom.

Silversmith Adobe

I have stayed in many vacation rentals, and this is one of favorites. Lovely well - equipped kitchen, very comfortable bed, and a roomy apartment. Great walkable location. Host was very easy to communicate with and quick to reply if we had a question. I highly recommend this VRBO.

Great place to stay in Albuquerque

My wife and I were in Albuquerque for a conference and the Silversmith's House was a great choice. It was clear from the moment we arrived that the owners pay close attention to detail: the place was immaculately clean, the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware, and the throw pillows and blankets make the place very cozy. The only slightly negative comment I would make is that the floor incline for the shower is not quite steep enough, so the bathroom floor gets wet, but that problem is easily resolved with the helpful squeegee that is provided. Hence, 4 stars rather than five for this review. Thanks very much to the owners for providing such a pleasant place to stay at an affordable price right in the center of Old Town.

Just perfect

I wanted to stay in a classic adobe house on my trip to New Mexico, and the Silversmith’s House delivered that and more. Everything felt easy, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. I especially appreciated the abundant outlets, easy and secure parking in the cute courtyard, and the peacefulness of the neighborhood. I’m gonna tell my friends to stay here when they visit!

Location can't be beat - and the cottage is adorable, too

This adorable cottage is nestled in an enclave of similar casitas with shared outdoor space. It's great for eating outside and soaking up the atmosphere before taking the very short walk to the historic district, science museum, or Museum of Albuquerque (highly recommend!). Parking was a breeze and getting to from other sites driving was very easy, too. The owners have a wonderful list of favorite restaurants and activities, too. The only drawback is that the pull out bed wasn't very comfortable. If that's important to you, this might not be the property for you.

Cute place. Convenient to old town

Very cute casita near old town and a park. Parking was great. Clean. Check in was easy. Communication was great. Nice kitchen but we didnt cook. Lamp near bed and outlet near hair dryer gets very hot. Would not advise using. I let host know. Bed rather small for 2 people who are not petite. One of us slept on pull out sofa.

A Little Bit of Perfection

The property was perfect especially for a traveling couple. Neat, clean, quiet, all the amenities - and my wife would say that it was pretty too! A short walk to the park, the museum, and the Old Town Plaza. Highly recommended!

Great location, very cute casita, perfect for a couple

This was a perfect little place for a couple--very cute, surprisingly roomy. The bathroom is tiny and is a wet room, so the whole floor gets wet when you shower--be prepared for that in case you need the toilet after that! But the owner posted a note to make that clear. The location is amazing--right across a small park from Old Town. This place was great and I was sad we had to leave after only two nights! We will definitely be back when we visit Albuquerque again.
