Believe me Budget Inn sure lives up to their name budget!! I've never been at a hotel/motel where they would charge for ice!! No shampoo, no hairdryer - their wash cloths, towels and sheets were stained! I spoke to John there and he just said that they couldn't get the stains out! either used stained wash cloths or go without! How's that for customer service? The room smelt as though smokers were in even though it's supposed to be a non-smoking room. I didn't sleep well at all the first night cos the sheets looked dirty and I spoke to the cleaning lady the following morning & she explained that she has relayed many messages from customers that the sheets & towels had seen better days but the owner is too cheap to do anything about it. Shop around for better facilities! Budget Inn is old and in need of an upgrade. The pool in the photo does not exist! it's now a dried out hole in the ground.

Passed through Durango on Friday night (Aug 28) and was looking for something cheap since we were only sleeping the night and would be up early the next morning to continue on our way. The manager was very friendly and amiable and gave us a good deal for the only room that was available (that was the good part) However upon entering our room we were met with the most terrible old musty smell mixed with stale cigarette odor. The room and overall building was quite run down and the front door had gaps all around. We had to run the AC all night to help tolerate the smell and placed towels over our pillows to help provide a layer under our heads (my son noticed some yellow stains on his sheets and slept on the top spread until he finally gave in because of the air conditioning). We left in the morning without showering and bought some hand sanitizer and room spray before continuing on our way. I highly doubt that we would ever stay there again if we travel through Durango and would pay more to get a nicer room. However we did get what we paid for and I admit I was being cheap since we only needed a place to sleep before continuing our drive. Nothing against the manager as he was actually quite friendly and helpful as was the desk clerk in the morning.

The room was clean and the front desk was kind and welcoming. Parking is awful but I think that's the deal with anything in Durango. We actually had a reserved parking space (one for each room) so that really helped. We slept well. No noise. I would stay again.

Needless to say, a hotel at this price in Durango should not expect 3***! At first glance and especially from the outside we say to ourselves that we made a bad choice? And then there is John who is waiting for you, with personal attention, with a huge smile and a real desire to welcome you (hotel run since the 70s by his parents) Certainly the rooms are dated, but the main thing is (fridge, microwave, TV, recent functional air conditioning) and above all it is perfectly clean, we even made the bed again (we stayed 2 nights), changed the towels, trash cans, etc. Double bed a little bouncy but ok The downside is the poor soundproofing due to the single glazing and proximity to the road (little traffic at night) And John is happy to offer you coffee from 8 a.m.! Our neighbor is a hobo who currently works as a mechanic on the "train" and il.noys confirmed that the "locals" who wanted cheap functionality came here, Finally ? : if you're looking for something cheap but clean even if it doesn't have that charm, you won't be disappointed!

This place is a dump. It is nothing like the pictures you see online. I understood that with the word Budget in their name, it wasn't the Ritz but man what a miserable experience. The workers behind the desk were extremely rude. When I asked for new pillows because the one's in the room had stains, I was told "they are in storage and we should have asked at 4:30 not 8:30. The pool is filled in with dirt and weeds are growing out of it. The towels were old, thin, and dirty looking. Also, you have to pay a quarter if you want ice from the ice machine. Don't believe the reviews or pictures that you see online. I have travelled to 39 states and this is the worst motel / hotel that I have ever stayed in.

There was blood on one of the pillows in the room, like someone may of got a bloody nose that stayed there before us and it didn’t get cleaned up, dirty socks that weren’t ours were left in the room as well. The bedding also had a weird odor to it.
All in all the room was poorly cleaned and disgusting I’ve stayed at budget inn a couple of times and it’s a place friends and family like to get rooms so we can enjoy Colorado together at a good price, although it was made clear and known that staffing is low, the experience was disgusting and we will no longer stay at budget inn.

If you are looking for a luxury hotel, this place is not for you. If you're looking for a cozy place at this Durango tourism city with a reasonable price, this is the best one you can find. The inn is small and not new. But it's clean, comfortable, good location, and keep giving you affordable rate. The manager is really nice and helpful. I recommend the Budget Inn Durango to those who have to stay at Durango, CO and upset about expensive hotel rates.

If you’re looking for a clean room with a clean bed without the unnecessary extras (no phone, no fancy breakfast, but good sat. TV & friendly folks who care) then this Budget Hotel is your best bet. I recommended them highly to those who consider a $100+ room unreasonable and unnecessary.

Gallons of dirty bath water from the room above us poured into our bathroom through the fan light, preventing us from getting ready for the memorial service we were in town to attend. The manager, in conversation with the owner, informed us this was a maintenance issue that they couldn't have prevented and therefore were not responsible for what happened. Unbelievably, they refused to compensate us in any way.

Perfect for our snowboarding trip, very reasonable pricing and the option for 5 of us to stay in the same room. It makes the trip much easier and more fun not to have to split everyone up into separate rooms. Thanks for everything we will be back!
