As described. Old timey, kitschy feel. Right in the middle of the action in downtown Durango. Room is quite small and a bit overloaded with furniture.

The stay was relaxing after a long distance of traveling. Room was beautiful but cramped. i loved the decor and furnishing of the room/. Grandchildren loved and laugh at the book. Disappointed not to finding portal or candy in hidden drawer. Bathroom was very clean and room was cozy.

The rooms are a little out dated. No refrigerator in the room. Very small. The bathroom was nice and big. Very clean! Beds arent the most comfortable, but ive been in worse staying a various hotels. The staff is excellent. The mahogny restaurant is awesome. Our server was the best. I cant remember his name but he was very professional but still fun and had us laughing. Thank you
