#3 of 9 hotels in Old Town by Axel's take. Old Town is #1 of 6 places to stay in Albuquerque. The best hotels in Old Town, ranked · Where to stay in Albuquerque

Axel's take: 8.8/10

A strong Route 66 stop with clean rooms, character and genuinely helpful staff. A renovated 2-star Route 66 motel near Old Town, scored for what it is.

The Monterey is a renovated 2-star motor court that delivers more personality than a standard budget stop. We'd pick it for a Route 66 road trip or an Old Town visit: recent Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise clean rooms, comfortable beds and welcoming staff. The retro styling feels considered rather than tired, and the MoMo Lounge doubles as the check-in desk. Free parking adds practical value.

The trade-offs are mostly motel ones: exterior room entrances, possible traffic and evening bar noise, and fewer services than a conventional hotel. Light sleepers should request a room away from Central Avenue and the lounge. The outdoor swimming pool is seasonal; Expedia lists it closed October 15–April 30. We'd skip it if you need winter swimming or a reliably hushed setting, but it's a very good pick for travelers who want simple comfort with character.

  • Best for: Route 66 road-trippers; Old Town sightseeing; Couples who prefer independent motels

  • Watch out for: Possible traffic and lounge noise; Outdoor pool closed seasonally; Confirm arrangements for late arrivals

  • Location: On Central Avenue, within walking distance of Old Town and the BioPark aquarium and gardens.

  • Rooms: Updated retro decor, comfortable beds and refrigerators; exterior entrances retain the motor-court feel.

  • Cleanliness: A consistent strength across recent reviews, despite occasional housekeeping lapses.

  • Service: Friendly, helpful staff earn repeated praise; check-in takes place in the MoMo Lounge.

  • Amenities: Cocktail lounge, free Wi-Fi, laundry facilities and a seasonal outdoor pool.

  • Fees and surprises: Self-parking is free; Expedia lists no after-hours check-in, so confirm late arrivals directly.
