We read the reviews and decided to spend our anniversary at this B&B, we went on Sept.11th weekend stayed in the fiesta bedroom. I needed another blanket and pillow, we were greeted by a note on the door, no warm cookies as promised upon arrival, the bed was so hard and uncomfortable I could no longer stand it got up at 3am tried to make coffee and the coffee pot was broke, waited for breakfast from a chef of 20 years in santa fe restaurants, but no way! Amy made a egg dish that was unappealing Amy was a good hostess to a returning couple but, not to us ,being our first visit.
I do not recommend this place. Being so close to home, albuquerque is more fastastic than we ever imagined.
sincerely, HOMELESS IN SANTA FE View Reviewer Info

I am very sorry that this couple had a bad experience at our bed and breakfast. We go out of our way to try and please our guests. I am available most afternoons from 4:00PM to 6:00PM for check in and always answer my cell phone. You can always make special arrangements to come at a different time as well.
I was available later that evening and would have been very happy to have gotten her a pillow and an extra blanket if she had only asked. We had a house full of guests and sometimes we run out of cookies. I don't limit each person on how many they can eat. I was looking forward to serving them tea on Saturday afternoon before they cancelled their second night with us. I also didn't charge them for the second night because she said that she had arthritis and wasn't feeling well and that was the reason they were checking out early. No mention of the hard bed, broken coffee maker or unappealing egg dish. I talked to her personally in the kitchen that morning.
The coffee maker was not working properly and has been replaced. The bed is a firm Sealy Postropedic pillow top mattress. I have a suggestion to make to any person who has major likes or dislikes of food. You will be a lot happier if you tell your host when you make your reservation to please not make anything spicy or that you hate eggs. This makes it better for you and your host or hostess. I know this situation because she e-mailed me a longer letter than this review. She said she would have been happier at The Hilton. She wanted pancakes and bacon. We had a Chile Relleno casserole with eggs, monterey jack cheese and it is stuffed with green chile. ( the chile is mild) We change our menu daily and do not have the same hot entree while the same guests are here. We also have fresh fruit , muffins , granola , toast , etc. I had people that had requested protein and as I said I try to accommodate everyone.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Bobcat Inn - the rooms are each individually and tastefully decorated with Southwestern art. We stayed in the casita (completed just months ago), and enjoyed the extra privacy although those rooms get some noise from the interstate when sitting on the deck. Storage space is very good. The gardens, fountains, patio, restful living room, and rural location make for a very relaxing environment. Amy serves delicious hot breakfasts - supplemented with fresh fruit, granola, and yogurt -daily; in our five days, the hot entree did not repeat.
Cookies, nuts, and tea are available most of the time for snacking. Coffee makers are in the guest rooms, and there is a refrigerator reserved for the guests' use.
There are three very good and reasonably priced restaurants within a short drive. The drive to downtown takes about 20 minutes.
The Bobcat Inn provides a peaceful retreat to bookend busy days in Santa Fe. We noticed many loyal "repeat customers" while we were there, and I would not hesitate to return.
