Alpha Motel, Walsenburg

We stayed at this motel when our car broke down in Walsenburg. There was nothing else available in town and we were charged over $70 for a very bare room. a few tv stations, a telephone, there was NO CLOCK and when you held up the sheets you could see through them. The entire experience was just creepy to be in the middle of nowhere and be taken advantage of. Let me also mention the owner was drunk when he signed us in at 6pm. The next day when my husband was down at the bottom of the mountain with the man who was working on our car, one of the employees came and ask me and my 3 children to leave because it was past check out time. We walked about a mile down the biggest mountain side with our suit cases to meet with my husband. (who had luckily been driven down by the mechanic) My 9 year by 1pm needed help as he wasnt used to the altitude or the heat and the walk down the mountain really hurt him. If you ever break down in Walsenburg I feel sorry for you.
