"It was alright"

"The Alpine Inn in Gunnison was a very comfortable place to stop on our journey. It was roomy and very clean with all the amenities to make our stay very pleasant!! We would highly recommend it!!"

"Area around the hotel is average. Nothing special."

"Very peaceful, the owners were very nice and very responsive"

"Friendly staff and large room"

"My wife and I (and our little dog) had a wonderful time in Donna's place along the Gunnison River. In mid-May the river was quite full and fast. It is only 50 feet out the back door with chairs on the back deck or a swinging seat in the yard overlooking the river. As mentioned in her description we had deer walking thru the yard every day. There are places on either side but we never saw anyone or any other noises. Very quiet and peaceful. If you come in May know that at altitude (7700 ft) it can be very cold in the mornings but if the sky is clear it will warm up quickly. The place has baseboard heat which was effective at maintaining temps inside as the outside was in the upper 20's. The kitchen was outfitted well although we did not do any cooking. The appliances are relatively new and in good shape (fridge, over, m/w). Be careful the the microware as it is 1600 watts! Be conservative with the time until you know how it cooks!The wifi has a strong signal and it fast and reliable. The TV is large enough but uses the local ISP (Spectrum) with all the normal channels. Bring your own box if you want more (Roku, Google, Apple TV, etc). The single bathroom is not large but the medicine cabinet is stocked with everything you can imagine if you forget something. The showerhead has a strong flow and gets warm quickly without much waiting. There is a separate baseboard heater with its own thermostat in the bathroom so you can always keep it warm. "
