Filthy
Filthy room, mopped the floor so my wife could walk to the bathroom, caulking mess and tools left on bathroom counter, barking dog in next room, no staff at front desk to address the problems. Staff in AM apologized and blamed a computer glitch, but didn’t do anything else to win my business again. Not serious about keeping customers. Overpriced for what it is. First and last stay. Moved to another hotel.

Property was solid overall. Accidentally locked myself out of my room after the front desk closed and staff was rude when they had to help me get back in even though I was very apologetic about the mistake.

Average but better than super 8
The reason I stay here is because of the options for parking a trailer. This is the second time I have stayed here. The first time I didn't book in advance and it was what was available. They don't provide breakfast which is unfortunate but I guess that is better than providing a disappointing breakfast. They do at least provide coffee in the morning. They could use a little remodel on some of the rooms. Ours was a bit rough in the bathroom.

The photos of the property look better than the actual facility. The hotel is painted a rather drab blue-grey color with orange accents. The check-in office smelled of gas once and burned food another time. The common room stove was filthy. The sink was filled with dirty dishes. The counter had crumbs and the rug and furniture needed cleaning and or replacing. The room needed a facelift as there were areas of doors, walls and the painted headboard area that lacked proper paint. The floors needed disinfecting. There was some sort of food on the floor perhaps for a dog? There were small bugs by the end table. The sheets and pillowcases had spots and were wrinkled. The refrigerator was not clean and the top of the microwave needed cleaning. There was no suitcase rack for our luggage. You could hear guests through wall areas. There were spills on the walkways and the concrete needed power washing. The flower beds were not well cared for. There was trash, weeds and cigarette butts on the grounds. The pool was not operational. The price was better than most hotels in Durango. The hotel-hostel was in an excellent location to download Durango and nature areas. The weeds really needed pulling. I would not recommend toxic poisons to kill the weeds as they can make guest with sensitivities very ill. The photos are misleading. If you just need a quick spot to lay your head for a night or two that’s not super expensive, buyer beware… this is a bare-bones basic hotel. Uniforms?

Hotel was older. Management was accommodating but housekeeping was poor. Asked for 3rd day refresh and nothing - but staff came to room to empty trash and give fresh linens. Billing could be done more sufficiently. Place was packed every night though. Go figure!

There was mold around the tub, walls were paper thin —made it difficult to sleep, the top bedding had black marks on it, the mattress felt like you were sleeping on springs, no ice available or bottled water. The whole place seemed sketchy! I believe I’m entitled to a refund or at least a partial refund😡

The Junction Hotel and Hostel is casual, eclectic and a little worn around the edges, but clean and very comfortable. The staff is super friendly. One of the nicest perks of the Junction Hotel and Hostel is that it's a quick jumping on point to the walking and biking trail into the center of Durango.

There was no coffee pot or clock in the room. Sink was next to the bed. Table was in the closet with one chair. I think the place was reasonably clean but I would not stay here again.
