    Asia was very welcoming and sweet! we are from Texas and we had a great time. Old time vibes and good drinks and staff was great. Good ambiance

    I got molested at the shady lady and the bartender just watched. I felt very uncomfortable and was groped multiple times

    The Shady Lady

    Stopped in today, had to with that name! Loved it! Sat at the bar and was able to talk to the owner Leslie. She was so sweet and shared the history of the town and bar. Definitely a cute place and love that she keeps the traditions alive in this quaint mining town

    Leslie aka "The Shady Lady"... SUPER sweet gal!

    A truly enjoyable place to stop for a drink and food after the train ride to Silverton! Recently reopened by Leslie, a Silverton local (a friendly and industrious 24 year old... aka "The Shady Lady"), this is a charming restaurant and saloon right off the DSNG station. Save yourself the walk to Main Street and definitely stop here after the 3.5 hour train ride from Durango!

    We went here after a long train ride. We ended up going in when they were closed. The lady out front ( dressed up as old western) asked someone if it was ok for us to go in . They let us and I'm SOO glad they did. The server was awesome ( don't know his name, no one was wearing name tags ) . The tequila sunrise was great. Thanks very much for letting us in even though you were closed

    OK, I stopped here for lunch because, yes it was a house of ill-repute at one time. Yes it was over priced, food tasted so so. At least the water was cold. Sidenote: the kids near the train track were selling rocks from their wagon. Cute kids. If you see them, buy some rocks. They'll give you a deal too.

    Great service and the ambiance of the brothel was fun! Very busy when the train stops in town and as soon at it departs it's laid back.

    Great food, fun spot. Staff didn't wear facemasks, that's why 3 stars. Frito bowl and patty melt were yummy. Cool ambience.

    Asia told us that she & the other bartenders usually dress in the corsets & skirts & hats that servers wore in the late 1800's & early 1900's.

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.

    No public lounge. Seems sort of deserted but at least no public lounge the day we were here, a…read moreThursday at 12:30.
