I have good news my friends as The Nugget which sits just down the street from Purgatory will be pouring all the classic drinks you desire after a day on the mountain. Adorned with ski and snowboard treasures from corner to corner, also sits a food truck pumping out some serious sliders. Sampled the tenderloin, crab cake, and zucchini sliders which were all excellent combined with garlic fries, you thought you'd just won the K-12 downhill with John Cusack.

Hidden beneath Taco Del Gnar, I wouldn't have found this place if we hadn't been directed to it by…read morea bartender at another local bar (they closed at 8--this place is open until 2). Such a hidden gem! We met both the owner and bartender, who were friends from Chicago. The bottled craft beer selection was diverse, and we were pleased to find a large offering of stouts, which is the perfect winter beer in my opinion. Several TVs, and they were willing to find a hockey game for my husband. Decor is nice. Maybe a little bright for a basement bar, but unlike your traditional dive bar, it was sparkling clean, so it's not like the dark was required to hide the dirt you'd rather not see. We'll definitely stop in again if we're ever in Ridgway. A nice little stop between Ouray and Telluride.

Unfortunately, we left disappointed with our stay. We paid nearly $300 for our room, and while…read morechecking in, we overheard rooms being offered in the $145-$180 range. More specifically, we heard what was described as "the best room in the place" offered to the gentleman checking in directly before us for $182. For nearly $300 a night, we expected a much better experience. Our toilet was also clogged, which certainly didn't help. I reached out to the hotel directly before posting a review because, as locals, I wanted to give them an opportunity to address our concerns. The response explained dynamic pricing and that rooms can range from $49-$385, depending on the room and time of year. I completely understand how dynamic pricing works, but that explanation didn't really address why we had just paid nearly $300 while hearing "the best room in the place" offered for $182 during the same check-in period. I was also disappointed that the clogged toilet was characterized as something that was "easy to miss by housekeeping." At this price point, a functioning bathroom feels like a pretty basic expectation. We really wanted to like this place and hoped, as locals, it could be somewhere we would return to or recommend to others. Unfortunately, between the price, the room issue, and the response to our concerns, the overall experience left us feeling like the value simply wasn't there.

The Avon is actually a SUPER nice hostel/historic hotel - I was really happy with my stay! The only…read morereason I didn't give 5 stars is bc check in was a bit confusing; when I arrived there was no staff at the desk or in the lobby, and I didn't receive any info about how to check in. However, when I arrived I hunted down a phone number in an old confirmation email and got directly in contact with someone (David) who told me exactly how to find my room key and explained where everything was. The whole place is fairly spacious! There are three floors (my room was a 5-bed dorm style room on the third floor), and the main bathroom is on the third floor too. It had two very clean shower stalls with plenty of toiletries for showers, and 3 bathroom stalls. The whole vibe of the bathroom was old Victorian rustic - very cute. The 5 bed room was shockingly comfy too - there were at least 3 other people in my room (clearly all hikers as well, very friendly), and I was bottom bunk. The beds themselves were super comfy, the pillows seemed like memory foam or something similar, and each bed had a fan and wall outlets. There was enough space under the bunks and on the little desk that the room didn't feel overcrowded with luggage either. And there was a small movie theater area in the basement, kitchen behind the lobby desk that is for everyone to use, and some little tables and chairs around including on the second floor which is where I ate dinner. Ngl, I actually appreciated that there were 3 others in my room and clearly several other people also staying in the Avon because it has a "haunted" feel to it, but having so many other happy/friendly hikers and travelers around just makes it feel cozy and safe. Overall: this place is in silverton, a super cute little Colorado town near tons of awesome hikes and gorgeous million dollar freeway! It is cozy, clean, and has plenty of resources. I didn't feel crowded at all.
