Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's excellent location in downtown Durango, its historic charm, and the friendly, knowledgeable staff who enhanced their stay. The hotel lobby and ambiance were frequently mentioned positively. While some guests noted the rooms were small or dated and the bed comfort varied, the overall service and cleanliness received favorable remarks. Breakfast and amenities had mixed reviews, with some guests finding them adequate and others desiring improvements. Noise from neighbors and heating system issues were occasional concerns but did not overshadow the positive experiences.

Anonymous, May 2017
Pros (+) The room was beautiful and well maintained. The hotel looked brand new, but from the late 1800s.
Cons (-) The elevator was also from the late 1800s and was barely big enough for two and luggage.

Beth, Dec 2016
Pros (+) Room was clean, old time feel, good room luxuries. Could have used a mini fridge in the room. Great location for the train and all the shops and restaurants in town.
Cons (-) No breakfast, or should I say super Small breakfast. Saw granola and yogurt and cereal, saddest hotel breakfast I've had in a long time.
