Great location - not thrilled about everything else. The location for the balloon festival was about as good as it gets. There is a large tree that impedes a perfect view, but just outside the front you can see the entire Balloon Field. The house was probably at one time beautiful. There is clearly deferred maintenance issues. The AC in the casita in the front was not working and the host sent a repair crew. The filter was black, not grey, not dirty, but black. This also made that space unusable as it was hot for 1 day of our stay. The other rooms got hot as well even with the AC set to 70. The only room that was well cooled was the primary. The kitchen utensils were sticky and the drawers had crumbs and stains. It did not feel as if it were properly or regularly cleaned. The beds were comfortable and firm. The bathrooms had very basic finishes and I had to manually tighten the toilet seat as it was sliding off the toilet and by the end of the stay the bathroom exhaust fan no longer worked.Overall, we wanted the location and we got a good location, but the overall experience left us feeling a bit let down and dissatisfied with the cost.
