Charming motel with immaculately clean, spacious rooms and everything you need! Friendly, helpful staff and a great downtown location next to a fantastic Chinese restaurant, just five minutes from the airport. A wonderful bonus is the complimentary, freshly prepared breakfast for each guest, not your typical continental breakfast! This will definitely be my go-to when visiting family!

An excellent breakfast at the local cafe is included with the rooms. The room was clean and bigger than I expected. The rooms had a bit of an old smell, but we had beautiful weather and just cracked the window open.

Good location in downtown Alamosa, near to several restaurants. Breakfast was a bit average and overall the property is quite dated. The towels were also very thin.

I was quite happy with the Dunes. Motel accommodations that achieve retro cool without really trying. A real Schlage key on a plastic diamond-shaped motel fob straight out of 1972. The room was dated and smaller than most modern chains, but the fixtures and furnishings were in good shape and the room was clean, safe, and comfortable. Super handy to have a real cafe breakfast on premise. Staff was friendly and accommodating, too. I will be returning every time I visit Alamosa!

Look, I'm pretty easy to please. If the place is safe to sleep and clean up at, I'm happy. Easy check-in/check-out . Dunes Inn was perfect for a 1-day stop on my road trip (I always book in advance). I woke up the next morning refreshed. Breakfast was available (disclosure: I skip breakfast, so I cannot comment on it, but from what I saw, I couldn't complain).
