There was nothing wrong with the hotel or the room. Nothing spectacular either. The property looked run down on first arrival but the room was very clean and the staff worked hard making sure the entire property was clean. I enjoyed the stay in this beautiful town.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The first night was great, no problems. The second night we had a noisy neighbor that I think was made worse because of the adjoining door between the rooms. There’s also construction on the building next door that was loud in the morning. I liked everything else about the hotel. The location was great. We were able to walk around downtown to breweries and restaurants.

Great location for walking into Durango. Many options of restaurants, bars & shops. Manager's happy hour drinks were appreciated, as was the included breakfast, although the eating area was very small for the number of room. No housekeeping during our 3 night stay, but replacement towels etc could be requested. Pool area was kept very clean & pool towels were available
