“This family-run motel offers clean, no-frills accommodation that aligns well with the more modest budgets in Durango. The older decor contributes to the area's historic charm, and the rooms come equipped with practical amenities like microwaves and coffee makers. Its dog-friendly policy is a definitive plus, as is the opportunity to support a local business.”
