Room was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. Only negatives were a noisy window style a/c which we needed to run a lot because it was stuffy in the room. And, the only green space was full of dog poop from the managers dogs. I always pick up my dog’s poop and was disappointed that I couldn’t walk through the grass or sit outside in the grassy area because of dog poop.

Wapiti is a hidden gem! Diamond in the ruff!

The housekeeping crew were awesome! Sam, the guy running the front desk, needs a little work on his people skills. Other than that, the property needs work and updates it was adequate and comfortable.

Room was relatively clean and comfortable. Bed was quite comfortable. A bit run-down. Funky odor in kitchen area. Lower priced for the area. You get what you pay for.

The Wapiti Lodge was very old and in rather bad shape. Somehow they did a very good job of keeping the room clean. The adjacent highway noise could not be heard in the room. It was very inexpensive compared to everywhere else in the high season in Durango.

The rooms had been updated, but otherwise this was a weak example of the trend to contactless lodging. Basic information about the room and facilities could only be accessed after check-in through a password secured website. The television was inoperable. (A lengthy explanation in the restricted access FAQ implied that it was my fault that the television wouldn't function, but actually they just didn't provide the remote and the the TV itself had no manual controls.) Any requests for assistance were channeled to an AI bot. I don't mind, and in some cases have actually enjoyed, the contactless hotel experience. But in this case it was very poorly executed.

DO not judge a book by its cover. This place is starting to shape up. The outside of the place is very deceiving. The have really put in a lot of work to this place and hopefully they continue. Looks rundown from the outside, but let me tell you the inside is completely remodeled. Very clean and renovated. No carpets, all new vinyl "wood" floors, new showers and very spacious. Especially the units in the back. Felt very safe and quiet. WOuld definitely stay there again.
