“Poor service, clean rooms!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2010 via mobile
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed in the Alps Motel last night. When we checked in, we were not given a password for the WiFi. When I called at 945 last night, no one answered the phone. Rooms are clean but outdated a bit. This was a good stay for the price but be aware that if you need a service, have an emergency in your room with plumbing, electricity, etc, you will (taking from my experience and past reviews) not be able to contact the front desk. They have recycling bins for bottles and plastics which is always a plus. Overall, this seems to be a mom-and-pop hotel with average rooms but poor service. If you're looking for a place to crash for the night, its a good value just be sure to get all information you might possibly need before you turn in because you won't see them or talk to them again.

“Just OK”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 August 2010

Many gave this high reviews, but........it was clean. However, there was a tiny window in the bathroom and the 2 windows in the room were off of a glassed in porch- making our room very warm- and there is no air conditioning. Plus, the room had dark paneling- so the room seemed very cave-like. If I were them, I would paint the rooms a light coloring, thus brightening up the room. It did have a refrigerator and micro.

The other night we were in Leadville, we stayed at the Super 8. This is not my favorite chain, however, I was very pleased with our room there.

“Disappointed in the service.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2010

This motel was very clean but we were disappointed in a few things. After reading the other reviews on line, we were looking forward to a pleasant stay. As mentioned the rooms were spotlessly clean but the ice machine did not work, there was no one at the front desk and phone calls to the front desk went unanswered. The toilet was partially stopped up when we arrived and overflowed when my son tried to flush it during the middle of the night. We used all the clean towels mopping up the mess and could not get an answer at the front desk to replenish the towels. We gave up on using the shower, packed our bags and checked out.

“Very Clean”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2010

The Alps is very clean. Not much to look at from the outside but it's Leadville. You can walk to town. The breezeway is glass enclosed which meant it trapped the afternoon/evening sun - this translated to an uncomfortably hot room to sleep in since there is no A/C and no windows on the opposite side of the room to let air pass through. I imagine in the cooler seasons, this could be a plus but it was way too hot to sleep. Not sure why they didn't put screens in the breezeway?!? I would not stay again as I prefer the Columbine Inn.

“Wonderful Hosts”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 May 2010

This is a great place to stay. The rooms are comfortable and very clean. The people that own the Alps are extremely gractious. I've stayed at several places in Leadville and this is definately the best
