About the host
Hosted by Gail Gale
I love being a host and am a Superhost with Airbnb. I have two degrees in hospitality management from Texas Tech University and Florida International University. Being a host has been my favorite job to date. I grew up in El Paso and have lived in eight other cities working in hospitality with over 20 years in the industry.
It is my goal to make your stay in our house the best experience you have ever had with regard to having a clean house, comfortable beds, furniture, and a stock of the little things that make this house a home away from home. T

Why they chose this property
This property is in a great location, in a safe neighborhood less than a mile from New Mexico State University. It is centrally located and has two small parks a block away from the entry of the neighborhood. There is quick access to restaurants, stores, and downtown.
What makes this property unique
The unique benefits of staying at our house are the value, service and the decór. I take my role as your host very seriously and it is an honor and pleasure to have you stay with us. I have been known to offer a baked good in the refrigerator and information about our friends that are local artisans or artists. We encourage guests to visit local attractions and take in the sites that are both in nature or that have a cultural aspect to them.
