Not a bad little spot but water pressure and shower is long overdue for a repair. Expensive for what you get but comparable for the area. Overall not bad and would happily come back

This property was great for a quick overnight stay with our dogs. They gave us a downstairs room & there is green space to walk our dogs & a small creek behind. However, the people hanging out around the motel seemed unsafe.

The Junction is very much a basic "ski" basecamp and hostel. Nothing fancy but it fit our needs for the one night we were there.

The Junction provided a safe, clean place for our needs. Nice surprise to see how close it was to a beautiful walking path near the river. We enjoyed getting into downtown Durango along this path.

You get what you pay for. A no frills place. Bed was clean and comfortable. Drain in shower worked, as did the diverter spout for the shower/tub and bathroom sink.

I was confused about the hostel part, but it is basically an older motel that has been renovated, with a small hostel in another building. It was well kept, with a small area for picnicking beside a stream in the back

Sadi/Front Desk Staff & Pena/Jose’ from housekeeping = very accommodating, patient, kind! I like that kitchen facility/community room is available at all hours, reasonably separated from main, sleeping quarters & - - hence - - noise from use of same isn’t disruptive. Although I didn’t swim, several guest mentioned enjoying the pool. ‘The Junction’ is an affordable stay in a lovely location w/friendly staff!

Pictures online are misleading. Community kitchen is a total disaster. Appliances in the room are outdated but functional. Experience is overall what you would expect from an "updated" motel.

It's a cheap place but the bathroom was dirty. In fact it wasn't cleaned. The property needs some serious work. The worst was i had to payca cash deposit because you couldnt use the card you paid for the room with.
