Really enjoyed our stay at Alpine Trail Ridge Inn. Easy check in and check out. The room we stayed in was clean, comfortable and cozy, and you can't beat how walkable the inn is to breakfast places and nearby restaurants, plus it's close proximity to the national park itself. Not sure if we stayed in one of the updated/renovated rooms, but it was exactly like pictured on the website. The only downside is not having a fan in the bathroom, but there was a window available to help with circulation. Would definitely stay here again.
