Our room had pet accommodations so that was a huge plus, the room was pretty small and a little outdated but it was very clean and the beds were very comfortable including the pillows. The linens smelled cleaned (huge brownie points). We’ve stayed here before and we will definitely stay here again in the future. 😊

The room was very clean and comfortable. Love the couch as sitting so often missing in motel rooms. For us, being near the breakfast room was great although it could be noisy at times. We loved the close proximity to the Durango and Silverton railroad and nearby restaurants.

The rooms were clean, small bathroom though! Comfy beds, the pool and hot tub are in the middle of the hotel which is really cool- not too bad of a breakfast for the included kind! Waffles for sure!
