"We are truly grateful we decided to spend a few days in Española at this amazing, eclectic house. The home is filled with so many vintage items we were spying new pieces each day. The bed we used was extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. The bathroom was clean, well lit and had good toilet paper - lol - one of my pet peeves. Our hostess, Kathryn, was a delight.

She also showed us other adobes she's restored in the area and told us of her plans to revitalize the plaza area that surrounds the apartment. If you've ever wondered what it would be like to stay in an adobe structure, this is the place for you."
