A lot of road noise but you are on a main road but having double glazing didn't help much.

The bathroom is a little dated, water pressure in the shower not great and there was no sink to wash dishes apart from the bathroom one (there was a bowl in the cupboard that you could use for this purpose), the bed was comfy, the location great and the staff fantastic! But for our stay it was all we needed and was a popular motel as there were no vacancies that night. I think what made our stay so good was the interaction with the staff and if we were doing a short term stay again we would certainly consider Alpine as an option.

Lovely host and loved the double glazed windows. You couldn't here the highway with the doors closed!

Convenient location
Convenient location. Manager was very nice and accommodating with our checking in late. Hotels.com didn’t have the room descriptions correct and two of the room we had (out of four rooms) actually had another bedroom (2 bedrooms one with 3 twins and one with a king) to it so all of us could have stayed in two rooms total instead of 4. One of the rooms smelled like smoke even though it’s supposed to be non smoking. Additionally, the bathroom windows are drafty and it was cold outside so it was quite awakening when you visited the toilet in the middle of the night.

Nice comfy bed and a good shower. A little dated but all in working order and clean. A great example of a motel that has been looked after for many years. And a heater that kept the room warm all night noiselessly.
