Never stay in a room over the garage or on the first floor. We could hear the garage opening and shutting all night. And the people above our room played loud music all Night and you could hear kids running around and jumping off the beds

Nice newer hotel but very limited parking in parking lot and if you drive a pickup truck like most of Colorado does getting into the underground parking lot is extremely challenging. Close to everything downtown Durango. It’s clean, new and basic. The only complaint I really had was that the desk clerk with the neck tattoo was snarky with us more than once and when we tried to talk to him about it he just wanted to be right. That doesn’t scream “customer satisfaction”. We wouldn’t stay there again. Now that we’ve been there we can see there are a lot of better options in the area.

This property saved our butts. We were booked with another hotel which was horrible. We checked out of there in the middle of my work day (working remote) and headed to the Holiday Inn Express. They had a room available immediately so that I could continue my work day. The property was all clean and very well maintained. We were very pleased and will definately stay there again in the future.

Super Friendly Staff. Mostly clean with the ice machine not working on level 2. The room was well kept. The breakfast was amazing everyday. This was an exceptional stay for my family. Con- Very active upstairs visitor. Stomping for long periods of time overnight. I recommend staying on the third floor to avoid this if a possibility.
