Comfort Inn & Suites Durango
The room was clean, it did have a weird smell but was clean. The front desk guy who worked the 3pm-11 pm shift was very pleasant, and professional. The breakfast was good. It was a great stay.

Breakfast menu was limited and fair at best. 95% of staff were amazing. Parking seemed expensive for the area. Hotel was extremely convenient to local shops and restaurants.
