My stay at the Esplendor was quite enjoyable with an inviting atmosphere and beautifully decorated rooms that had a wonderful southwestern charm. The views of the mountains surrounding the hotel were breathtaking, making the experience even more memorable. Although there were areas like the grounds that could benefit from some upkeep, the overall charm and uniqueness of the place gave it character. The prices felt right for what we received, though some aspects could use refinement.
