Check in was a mess because of the parking lot. The bed was uncomfortable. An unsupported complaint by the guests in the room next to ours ruined the getaway! Probably won't select this hotel again for a stay in Durango.

The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. But the highlight of the hotel is the location. It's right along the Animas River and you can walk out the door to access the river walk. It's also really close to downtown. If you're looking for an affordable convenient option in Durango this is a great spot.

We appreciated the friendly check in, the comfortable room, and the breakfast. One weird thing in the room is the lack of outlets on one side if the bed and also at the desk area. Otherwise, no complaints and we will happily stay here again.
