The staff was friendly. I don't know what their deal is on toilet paper but there was none in my room or in the bathroom off the kitchen which is used by everyone. It also would have been a nice to have some disinfectant to keep the kitchen clean. All in all for what I paid it was a good value

Our visit was as expected. Room cleanliness was okay. Restroom vent was dirty and had not been cleaned lately! The bulbs were the least expensive that money can buy so the room was dark and gloomy. The A/C unit was very loud! You could not hear the tv without raising the volume when the unit was running. Oh and the ice machine was Out of service and did find until later that night after the office was closed.

NEVER, EVER AGAIN!

The only thing that worked was the toilet and air conditioner! Fridge did not work, tv did not work, sink would not drain, tub faucet ran at the same time as the shower head, all the floors were so dirty we wouldn’t walk on barefooted and the DO NOT DISTURB sign on the door obviously couldn’t be read because the cleaning (LOL) people knocked three times before moving loudly to the next room! Advertised picture must have been taken somewhere else, looks NOTHING like it!

This property is good for the younger crowd but if you are over 30 or prefer a quiet room I would recommend spending a few extra dollars and staying somewhere nicer. You can hear every movement from the other rooms. The guests in the room above mine sounded like they were playing football the first part of the evening. The property definitely needed sprucing up.

The noise of slamming doors was very loud. It did quite down at later. But if you wanted to sleep before 9 it wasn't really possible.

The Junction Hotel and Hostel is fine if one is just looking for a simple bed. It's a bit of an old motel that is now also a hostel for hikers. The walls are thin, the staff is more or less non-existent and the location is fine for Durango. My main issue is their "dynamic" pricing. With very few rooms available in Durango when I was there, they raised their pricing to $100 per bed for the hostel when I called fairly late in the day looking for somewhere to stay. Would I stay there again? Only if nothing else were available.
