I loved the room we stayed in, there was historical information about the hotel posted in the shower. The views were fantastic. The decorations in the room were so cool to learn about and the bed was so LARGE AND COMFY!!!! One of my best nights of rest in a long time. Daniel was very kind and helpful!!

Room and hotel were clean. They provided toiletries. Check in and out was simple and communication during check in was great. We arrived close to midnight and check in stopped at midnight, but front desk texted instructions on how to get our key to the room. Property has shared bathrooms but they were not crowded as we arrived late and left early. Would recommend and would stay again.

No staff available other than by phone number. Bar is not operating, kitchen is available to guests, but it's a industrial kitchen and difficult to navigate would have been nice to have a microwave. Another guest said there was one in basement but didn't work. Hotel smelled of railroad ties. Bathroom/Rooms were clean room locks didn't lock. In a town isolated it was interesting but okay for a night.

Owners were friendly, bed was comfortable, and the building had a great historic Silverton feel. The description on Expedia needs to be updated, as they did not have and cafe, bar, or restaurant. The kitchen was open to bring your own food.

This place was pretty awesome, this is the first hostel (ish) place Ive stayed at in the U.S. and they nailed it w all the right vibes. We actually stayed in the private room (fire room?) The staff (patrick?) Was increadibly kind and knowledgeable. Our room was lovely, many unique furniture pieces. The common areas are wonderful, group seating, games, musical instruments. We will be back for a linger stay later this fall.

OK. I really liked the place for it's Quirky vibe. Endearing. But was never personally greeted by anyone. Remote check in only. I arrived a little after 6 pm so....? And contrary to the prior reviews, no one had a beer or snack available. Nice to have, but not needed. Bar never opened. The room was clean and the bed comfy.... Once I got in. The lock and key had to work it out between themselves (old school key on hotel fob) which took a minute. No guidance on location to find food but being intrepid I figured it out... Which was lucky since even tho I was offered kitchen access, the stove and other gas appliances were not connected. A hot plate/press would never heat up - found the cord but never found the plug. Gave up and cooked, thankfully, in my van. There was one guy in the bar area who was visiting from Moab - we had a great discussion and discovered we were fellow Project Managers & techies. I would really like to rate the place higher but.... You have to earn it by being customer focused. My experience - not so. Glad they had a sound machine in the room to block out adjacent room noise (hey, it's an old place..) because the cooler downstairs sounded like my dad when he would fall asleep in his easy chair and snore. Again, something endearing in an odd way but.... My room was on the 2nd floor just above the cooler. Slept reasonably well and shower was hot, thankfully. Silverton is a great town with friendly folks. Had a wonderful B-fast at Dera Deli.

Room is clean and property is unique. This is our second time staying here. Went with a room with shared bathroom this time. No concerns about shared bathroom as there are multiple bathrooms available. Love that everyone is on a different kind of adventure. Great option for the adventurous traveler. Dog friendly and plenty of parking options if bring your off-road vehicles.

I was adventuring solo for a few days and stayed in the 3-bed hostel room at the Avon. The room was small but the bed was comfy, the amenities were nice (i.e. towels and toiletries in the bathroom), and the staff was welcoming and helpful. It is a funky, cozy, old-timey spot in the mountains, with a covered porch with rocking chairs so you can sit outside and look at the mountains winding down after a day of hiking or having your morning coffee. I would definitely stay there again. Thanks to Pat for all the help making this a great mini-vacation!
