The single-floor layout makes it easy to settle in and enjoy the space, whether you're traveling as a couple, a small family, or a group of friends.
When you're ready for outdoor adventure, the Animas River is nearby for rafting, fishing, and scenic walks along the river trail. Purgatory Resort is approximately 27 miles north for skiing and snowboarding in winter, along with mountain activities throughout the warmer months. Mesa Verde National Park is about 35 miles west, making it easy to add a day of exploring Southwest Colorado's remarkable landscapes and history to your stay. ​​​​​​​ Additional amenities include free WiFi, coin-operated laundry facilities, reserved off-street parking, and secure coded access to the Jarvis Building at all hours.

Great apartment. The location can’t be beat. It was very clean and comfortable. Check in was very easy and very clear. The parking spot was easy and safe. We would definitely stay here again.
Hoat was great, check in and out instructions were timely and simple. The unit was great! Stocked well and was a great location right in the heart of Durango. When we return, we will rent here again!
We had a wonderful the proximity of all Durango has to offer masses our stay more no driving no parking. Awesome! Apartment was clean well equipped and cozy. We even watched the polar express pass by!
This is an updated apartment within a historic building in the bear of Durango. The location is perfect for getting around town and the place was recently renovated. The bed was very comfy and so appreciated after long, active days!

Nice place to stay and explore Durango and the San Juan loop. Train travels right outside the door.
Great location, but dirty linens with stains and dirt in between the sheets, dirty couch moggy smell.

Hi, Hilda, thank you for your review, we appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback. We are disappointed to hear that we dropped the ball this time, as this is not the high standard of guest satisfaction and cleanliness that we hold ourselves to. We have provided your valuable feedback to our local manager to address with our housekeeping team. We hope to have the opportunity to better impress you in the future!
This is the perfect location for a couple .... walking distance to everything in town, parking across the street. And the condo was well furnished with a comfortable bed. We will definitely stay again!
Location was great. Place could use a refresh. The big complaint was lack of info on how to get into the unit after hours. The bldg is supposed to lock at 7pm and on 3 occasions it was locked around 5pm. We did have a key to access back of bldg. But we did not take it with us one day as we were returning way before 7pm one night. AFTER 3 nights there we were finally told how to access the key fob that allowed us entry into the bldg. This information should be given to guests. If the bldg posts it locks front door from 7 am - 7 pm then THOSE should be the hours!
