I enjoyed the central location of the property. It was so close to many of the things i did on my trip. The breakfast in the mornings were very good and a nice start to my days. The room was very clean and i loved the water pressure in the shower. Overall this was a very enjoyable place to stay and it made my trip to Durango, CO that much better.

Family vacation

The location was great. Walkable to downtown Durango. The view of the Animas river while having breakfast was breathtaking. We even saw a deer in the river one morning! The breakfast was above average with many options. Our only complaint was the bed. It was incredibly uncomfortable and made for 6 nights of little to no sleep.
