Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Detoured purposefully to Las Cruces to stay in this historical, funky property. It was simply not clean. Popcorn debris in bedroom, musty odor, and seriously offputting toilet. Promptly removed myself to nearby hotel - I can recommend the Staybridge Suites! Too bad. This place has real potential but was just not ready for guests.

We enjoyed this house very very much. We'd never been in a house design like this before. It had great character with everything rotating out from the kitchen. Well stocked and we were able to cook each night.
One suggestion: place no-slip strips in bathtub. Makes it safer for people for those of us that need a bit more stability while showering.
All in all great place to stay. Close to food and access to highways for travel to White Sands, Mesilla and other places.
Thanks for making a great and memorable vacation. 😎

The listing is very accurate. The trains were cool. Great location in the middle of everything. Property needs some TLC.

I was not thrilled that I was required to purchase an insurance police for $60, something I've never been required to do anywhere else.
Everything was fine until I just opened my e-mail to find that a claim has been filed against this insurance policy to replace the carpet for $433.
One of our dogs pooped on the carpet this morning, which my wife promptly picked up. She sprayed with Odoban and then wiped it up.
Now, they're claiming the carpet needs to be replaced?

Really unique stay in Las Cruces
This is a unusual and fun stay in Las Cruces. The house is really kitted out in a useful but funky style. Great for pets or anyone who wants fun stay while on the road. Probably my favorite VRBO experience!

Best VRBO ever!
Always wanted to stay in a dome house; check 😀
The dome was clean, comfortable, and delightful. Great mattress. Great kitchen. Best shower I’ve experienced in two hemispheres. Already ordered a shower head like the tandem in the shower. Hated to leave! Thanks for having us.

Staycation
Great little getaway in our hometown. Enjoyed being able to escape to a lovely unique home with so much character. I had no issues with the train noise and I felt like I was in a second home of my own. Easy to communicate with and just lovely experience.

Love the Dome!
We loved the dome house. Great furnishings, a little retro vibe. Very comfortable. Location as mentioned is at the back of a business driveway behind a gate but we saw no one back there while we were there. Location is super convenient to the highway, shopping, etc. Trains do pass by at night but they pass quickly and they didn't bother us at all but we like trains.
