Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean and charming. My unit had a Paris theme. The bathroom was clean upon arrival. A very charming little motel (emphasis on little). Drawbacks: - Staff were not EVER present at the front desk. The door remained locked and I had to call if I needed anything. Including check in. - Tight parking lot, even for my small car. - The fridge was not clean in the kitchen. Not a big deal since I didn't use it but still gross. That is it. Not bad but not great. Id give it a solid 6/10. I would recommend it over other motels in the area or if you are looking for a good deal, this is a good choice.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It's was pretty rundown. The toilet did not work . Had to flush it 5 times to get stuff to go down. The sewer backed up right outside our door under our car. The staff asked if we could move our car at 10pm so he could stop the overflow of sewage coming out flowing down the driveway. Don't like to complain about a place but it was not good. The bed was comfortable.

A quaint little place. Stayed 2 different times within a 10 day period. First room needed some work and deep cleaning, minor updating wouldn't have hurt. 2nd visit in a different room and it was better/cleaner. Certainly not the Ritz but we enjoyed our stay in a cute little local motel with a long family history.

Wifi was very weak and intermittant. Limited electric plug ins (maybe add a newer lamp with an outlet and USB port?) and they were very "loose", in that the plug would fall out of the outlet. We like the mom n pop places, but this one was showing it's age. Tile floor in bathroom was broken with most of the grout missing.

This motel is older and may need some updating and a little maintenance - the tub drain was slow and the main door in the room we stayed in needs a new seal. The heating system is pretty dated, but works, just probably not very efficient. Overall, for our needs (roof over our heads and a comfortable bed), the place worked well enough.

Avoid!

Booked this place as the last night of our Colorado trip. Pics of the "Standard Room, 1 King Bed (Newly remodeled)" looked OK. $160 is steep (staying at The Conrad in Vegas next week for the same price), but I figured it would be better than average for Durango for that price.Definitely do more of a deep dive into this motel that I did before booking. No one at the front counter for check in. Took a few minutes for a guy to make it up front to get us keys. Not the warmest reception. Total dump. Room we received looks nothing like the pictures. It looks, and smells, like a partially finished basement, if there were basements in trailer parks. Furniture is 40 years old and very tired. Nasty industrial carpet, cheap fixtures, nothing matches. Decorated with junk from a 1983 garage sale. I especially like the vintage inner spring bed that bounced like you're on the moon, and the $40 contractor spec vanity in the bathroom with a faucet missing an aerator so it shoots water all over your pants when you turn it on. No amenities. Appears to have had a hot tub at one time, which had been converted into a play pen and storage locker. Nightmare parking, steep slope, tight turns and difficult access for trucks. Definitely ripped off. At $40 a night, this place would have been fine. At $70 a night, it would be a stretch. At $160 a night, this is a total scam. Would have been better off sleeping in the back of our truck down the road at the excellent United Campground.
