Painted Lady Bed & Brew

The Painted Lady Bed and Brew was a last minute find (booked the day of). It ended up becoming one of our favorite places to stay ... ever! This lodging is housed in an historic building that used to be a brothel AND it has a history of having been haunted (didn't know that until arrival). We booked a suite, and were pleasantly surprised to see that our name had been written in chalk on our door in welcome, even though the property has a keyless entry process. In fact, all the details in our suite (the Jessie Suite) were just divine; they were carefully chosen: to represent the 19th-centuryr and/or ghostly aesthetic (lots of dia de los muertos artwork and film posters, etc). the kitchen was well-appointed, leather couch and beds comfortable. We had our own private back porch too. The property has a wide front porch lined with comfortable rocking chairs. We loved sitting there. But, the details just get better. Every adult guest is greeted with a free home-brewed beer in the property's cozy renovated "ghost streetcar saloon." And, the night we arrived happened to be the free monthly community ghost story telling event right in the garden. We couldn't ask for more ... what a way to spend the evening, and what an amazing find. This lodging is the best. Indeed, it was one of our favorite New Mexico experiences (ranking up there with the Tent Rocks slot canyon hike). Thanks so much. If we visit Albuquerque again, we will return!

Not a thing.

The studio was large, comfortable and very tastefully decorated. The private, secure parking space was very welcome. The location is convenient to the old town and some very good eating places. The Sawmill Market with its many food outlets, is very popular. The quirky bar is an interesting attachment. The whole outside space is very attractive and thoughtfully presented with lots of places to relax.

The light by one side of our bed is inadequate to read by. There was no proper iron and ironing board supplied in the room. The owner did, however, take a travel iron and small board from another room for our use on a linen jacket for our return journey home.

Spacious, quirky accommodation. Immaculately clean. Fascinating decor with explanatory notes on the premises history. Wonderful free beer on the tramcar during 'Hoppy Hour'. Friendly, knowledgeable host. Thank you Jesse!

Such a unique place, with a great vibe and a very friendly owner. Loved the “hoppy hour” in the beer trolley!

Unique, fun place. The Hoppy Hour at the Ghost Light Saloon was awesome.

Incredible location. Close to Old Town and easy access to highways The trolley car bar with Kate was amazing

Clean, comfortable. A very unique and quirky place to stay. A fun atmosphere and a fun backstory to the history of the property.

Very cool place & good beer.
