    We where met by attentive, respectful personnel. Central location so close to downtown restaurants, downtown shopping and the train depot, it was in a very very nice area. Tried some takeout specials at Mcdonald's, luckily it was at a short distance from the venue.

    The breakfasts were above average with the toast and peanut butter for the toast, as for instance and all the staff was diligent. Thoroughly enjoyed the room with a king bed & 2 garage sale chairs view of heating ductwork, my bed was very comfy. The location was particularly good, not far from very many restaurants, all the restaurants and Durango to Silverton railroad. Btw, the venue was next door to a family-owned gallery.

    Enjoyed Durango, the hotel was beautifully kept and well-appointed in the mountains. The staff were professional and offered us a vintage room with very comfortable beds. This property was located in a central area close enough to the Durango/Silverton railway station and the historic nature of downtown Durango and the time period of the building. Plus, the hotel was minute walk from Karyn Gabaldon Fine Arts.
