Check in was fairly easy. Parking was good. The room is remodeled and comfortable. The cleanliness of the room was horrible. Seemed like they only changed / made the bed from the previous tenent. Old wash rags in the shower, dirty floors, dirty everything. Had to wipe the whole room just to feel comfortable. Could have been a good stay if it was clean.

We enjoyed having the kitchenette in the room and the ease of walking to Downtown Durango from the property. The bed was very comfortable, and the cleaning staff were friendly. It's a little loud being located right on a busy road, but the road was not busy at night.

It would be good to know the pet fee upfront and not right at check in. The place was very convenient for walking to dinner and shopping. We enjoyed our stay.

Reminded me of renting beach houses. Price and facility were reasonable and self check in worked well, the snacks were a cool option
