Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Every thing was fine with the exception of the parking garage. There is a very tight, 90-degree entry into the garage which is difficult to negotiate. We were driving a mid-size SUV and had to be very careful. There is a limited amount of open parking at street level, which was always full. If you are driving a large pick-up, I'd probably look for lodging elsewhere. If you are driving something smaller, the garage entry is not much of an inconvenience and is more than made up by the close location to Durango's nice main street and the Durango-Silvereton train. We selected a unit on the river side of the building and were pleased with the view.

Clean, quiet, and staffing professional. Breakfast is the norm. Notice all Holiday Inn express has pancake vs. waffle maker. Out 3 expresses, they were not used. Recommend bringing the waffle maker back. Allowed to check in early (nice when driving forever) and offed fresh chocolate chip cookies! Fantastic stay!

The hotel is in a great location, on the main drag and with the reiver as a back drop. The main street area is a short walk (2-3 blocks), so we walked everywhere all weekend. The rooms were great, just what you would expect from a Holiday Inn. The parking was tight as the hotel is squeezed onto a small property lot, but they do have a parking deck around back. Our only complaint was the check-in process because none of my info transferred from Expedia, so we basically had to start from scratch. It was a small thing, but kind of frustrating after the long drive and the late 4 pm check in. Otherwise, no issues, the staff were great, and it was a really good breakfast.
