Don't let the dated look of the motel or the rooms stop you from staying here. I commented to my husband almost immediately that the room looked and felt cleaner than our house (I have left hotels and motels after walking in the room). Our bed was comfortable, the sheets were so soft and the staff had made sure the... More

We stumbled on to this motel after a long drive, and were very pleased. The room was very clean,and the bed was very comfy,the staff made us feel very welcome as well. This is very close to the Durango/ Silverton train which is what we had planned We are already planning our next trip and will be staying here again.

...this is a very "quaint" motel. The rates in the winter start at $49 for a King - $52 for 2 queens. The rooms are nice and clean. There is a frig, microwave, and coffee maker in each room. There is no breakfast, but it isn't a chain hotel. I slept well, and it was very quiet. It's near a... More

Our yearly "get-away" weekend from Phoenix in August took us to Durango this year. So glad we took the advice from a co-worker to stay at The Caboose Motel because our mini-vacation was much more enjoyable due to selecting The Caboose. Terry, the manager, shared great tips on enjoying the restaurants and shops in downtown Durango ... which were walking... More

We stayed for 1 night before backpacking in the San Juan. Terry, the woman working, was very kind and made sure that we had our key for the late check-in. The beds were comfortable and the room was moderately spacious. The only complaint I have is that the A/C wasn't very efficient. This isn't a luxurious place, but it was... More

So having stayed in chain motels The Caboose made a nice change. It was walking distance from town, unique, friendly helpful staff and a good price. The room was nothing special, but the bed was comfortable, the TV was good and the shower was warm. There was a whole bunch of things that would have been great had i stayed... More

I stayed here 4 nights - 2 and then 2 more in a different room a couple days later. I found the staff and the owner very friendly, the rooms nice and clean, the beds comfortable. This is an older, single-level hotel where you park right in front of your door. Can't beat that. Most of the chain hotels in... More

My husband booked a room online at this motel. He wasn't looking for anything fancy, just two beds for he and our daughter for a fishing trip. Subsequently, the owner sent an email saying the cheap room they had booked was unavailable and instead she had made them a reservation for a much more expenisve unit. He immediately called and...

Room #3 for $85: Found a dead bug in the bed (the next morning). No toliet paper. Luckily we found an extra roll in the vanity. Dirty coffee spoon. The electric and style of the room is orignal from the early 70s and apparently has never been updated. Unfortunatly, the air conditioning unit, which shared a power strip with every... More

Worse motel we ever stayed at. Not sure why they called it Caboose Motel. Rooms very out of date and old. Toilet seat looked like an original with cracks and worn out... disgusting! We wouldn't even sit on it. No shampoo, no hair dryer, shabby towels. Couldn't wait to get out of there. Way overpriced. Too bad since we try... More
