Have been staying here since 1975. They closed the Motel for a time to put in newer carpet, sink, etc. The 10 rooms on the east side have been gutted and are being cleaned and remodeled. They are working on the Cafe and pool. Still small rooms but a good price for a basic room.

Was afraid to leave the heat on - was so noisy and smelly, was afraid to walk on the carpet - looked so nasty. Would rather sleep in my vehicle!

Scum on the tile in the bathroom,
Dead bugs in ihe floor in the corners where a vacuum hasn't been in ...forever!

9 of us bikers took a week-long trip to west Texas and stayed in all kinds of motels. We are not a real picky crowd, but the Alpine Inn was by far the worst motel of the trip. It was the only one that was really unacceptable but we stayed anyway to have something to laugh about later. For 35 bucks, what can you really expect? The rooms were dirty, our fridge stunk up the room when we opened it, the linens were stained, and the bathrooms were all moldy. There was trash under the beds and it looked like a vacuum or mop hadn't been used in a while. The exterior eves and boards show much neglect, and the roof ridges are bowed down. On the plus side, the TV worked fine and the steakhouse across the highway was great. On request, the owner came in with two cans of air freshner and sprayed like mad, then brought out some clean sheets. Didn't put them on, just brought them out. They had a bleach smell to them, so we knew there couldn't be much of anything bad in them. Slept great.
