"Best Dog friendly place to stay in Albuquerque.
The style, attention to detail, and peacefullness Desert Compass gives you is hard to find elsewhere. They have a communal laundry room, outdoor area, pool, seating area, and fireplaces.
Each room is seperate from another, with the Coyote Room having its own personal yard area (this was incredible because of our dogs).
The aesthetic feel of Desert Compass is a big draw for most people, but we truly appreciated how quiet it was and how perfect of a reset spot it was for us.
Aside from all of the goodies this place has, the other notable aspect is how central it is to all of Old Town!
Walking distance to:
Albuquerque Museum: .2 miles
Beyond Van Gogh: .5 miles
Sawmill: .5 miles
Level 5: .5 miles
Church Street Cafe: .3 miles
Noisy Water Winery: .2 miles
San Felipe de Neri Church: .2 miles
Book yourself three nights here. You'll need a full day of just enjoying the space at Desert Compass, and two days to explore all that Old Town has to offer (if you aren't in a rush).
