If you like modern, this is not the place for you. This historic property is well-maintained and I felt like I stepped back in time in this classic hotel. I stayed in the "Presidential Suite" that was situated on the top floor, corner location that afforded nice views of the main street and Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. The suite was spacious, comfortable and very quiet. Great location next to restaurants and shops and a block from the historic railroad depot. I would definitely stay here again.
