“Bleckkk, awful hotel.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed June 12, 2011

Well, if you look at the pictures for this hotel, it sure seems accommodative.....Well don't stay here. It took about 10 minutes for the man at the counter to help us :[ We arrived in our room, and it was nothing short of awful. It's a very small room with hardly any walking space. The bathtub is right there in the bedroom, and there's no closet space! We go to use the tub for a nice romantic bath, and there's no drain in the tub. Then they tell us the pump is busted, and the shower doesn't even work. The walls were very thin, the guests here are loud and obnoxious, and it smells horrid. The hot tub is "broken" and the pool isnt even filled. Overall I'd say this is one of the worst stays I've ever had in my life.

Room Tip: Just don't stay here.

“Dump! Avoid this place. Run from Ugly”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2010

So my friend set this up for his wedding and was given a special rate. Well that was crap because when we got there the other room I resereved for my friends for this wedding the owners charged us more. Second they showed my friend some room and was told that they all had been remodled and looked like the one he showed him. That was also crap. The closet is a joke, the carpets are dirty,, the beds seem like the original beds from when the hotel was constructed. The bathroom is the worst. The hot water is non existant in the sink, the shower barely flowed. Then to top it all off there were people parting all night long and the owner did nothing. It got worse when an argument broke out with a guy and his girlfriend and again the owner did nothing. Then the fight that broke out between 2 guys and the owner was no where to be seen.

“Worst hotel ever”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed October 4, 2010

This was the worst hotel stay I've ever had. The hotel management was rude and refused to give us the quoted price over the phone. Get things in writing!! Our room was on the 2nd floor and whenever another tenant turned on their shower, ours dripped louder and faster. We had 2 light bulbs out. The dresser drawers had no handles so they were pointless. The TV had cracks. Regardless of price, it's not worth it.

“New Owners New Attitude”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 4, 2009

We booked the Alpine Inn with the old owners for a large wedding in August. About a week before the wedding I get a call from Ace the new owner confirming our stay. We got there only one week after they took over and major changes were already under way. All the rooms are being refurbished. And the family that now owns the Inn are helpful, friendly, accomodating and professional. It was a great stay, (we booked half the hotel rooms). They have big plans for their establishment and the attitude to be successful. If you have stayed there before and were not satisfied give them another try. The prices are still a great value and you get the service you deserve.
