Grounds
A large deck extends along the back side of the Hostel, which backs up to a forested hillside just over the ridge from some of Durango's most popular mountain-biking and hiking trails in Horse Gulch. The grounds include several garden areas featuring native and ornamental species, and the property is set back from the street to afford guests a quiet and relaxing experience only minutes from downtown Durango. There is free parking on the premises with security lighting and a bike rack.
