Lou's Bed and Breakfast

My wife and I stayed at Lou's B&B on a trip to Durango. We stayed in the Southwest rooms. The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. My wife has worked as a housekeeping manager at a high end lodge and gave them a 'thumbs up'. Loved the walk in shower. It took two tries to sign on to WiFi, but then it worked fine. The breakfasts were outstanding and the owners were great to visit with during breakfast. We didn't even know that they had dogs until the second day. We were discussing work, lifestyles, animals, etc. and they introduced us to two well behaved dogs. I don't hesitate at all to recommend Lou's B&B to friends and family.

We don't normally feel the need to leave reviews about places we stay while traveling, However This B & B was so Unique, The owner's Lou and her husband Al were so accommodating, The room we stayed in "The Western Room" was decorated so cute, the bed was sooo comfortable , the room spacious and absolutely spotless. Lou's breakfasts were delicious , in fact we stayed an extra night just for another breakfast :-)) The owners are animal lovers therefore our next visit we will take our dog so we can stay longer. Al was so knowledgeable about all there is to do in Durango and actually the entire Four Corners area, Plan on more than a few day's to enjoy the sights. We WIILL go back, The price was less than a Motel room and so much better than a motel, Oh yeah, had a full size kitchen with a Groc

We made a two nights reservation for the Western room at Lou's Bed and Breakfast, but we did not know exactly what to expect, since there are not many reviews about this place. We were warmly surprised by its uniqueness, though. Emma Lou and Al were very friendly, and our room was clean, comfortable, and very spacious. It has a full kitchen, study desk, and breakfast table. The hosts are flexible about breakfast time, and have lots of information about Durango and the surrounding area. The room's decor is unique, and the guest book is full of awesome reviews. If you like interacting with people, and don't mind pets at breakfast time, this is a great place to stay.

Located just a short trolly or car ride south of Downtown Durango, this quiet spot gave us some much needed quiet rest & relaxation.||||I teach private, in-home wine tasting classes and was scheduled to do an event on the Saturday night we arrived in town. I took my husband with me and we made a short weekend of it. When we checked out the next day, we visited nearby Mesa Verde National Park.||||We arrived around 1:00 pm and questioned our choice in lodging, as the neighbor's yard was grossly unkept. After realizing that was not our destination, we were curious. Upon approaching the front door, we were greeted by Lou's smiling face.||||As we were shown into the West room, we really lit up. Definitely built and finished off by someone who is a hobby handy-man and not a professional car

Hard to describe, let alone fairly rate, this place. It is a little strange and nothing like any place we have ever stayed before. Lou and Al, the proprietors, are the nicest people EVER, very friendly and down to earth. I SO want them to do well! The breakfasts that Lou makes and serves at her own kitchen table at whatever time you want in the morning are incredible. The room itself (we stayed in the "Western Room") is odd. VERY clean, and the bed is comfortable. The price for bed and breakfast at the height of summer in Durango is $110, incredibly cheap, believe me. But be prepared: the place and the neighborhood are both pretty funky (not unsafe, don't get me wrong, just, well . . .maybe the word is "lived-in.") The "kitchenette" looks like it dates from the 80s. No real bathroom. T
