About this property

Loft 4 - Downtown, ground level


Located in the heart of downtown Alpine Texas this private ground level loft-style unit is the perfect place to scout out the city, explore the surrounding towns of Marfa and Fort Davis, and discover the beauty of Big Bend National Park. The building was constructed between 1908 and 1912 and features original tin ceilings, and funky plaster, funky windows, and it is located on the end of the building! Bed is a king, futon is 3/4 size.

The Space:
For privately elegant entertaining, business meetings in a professional setting, a quiet rendezvous, or just showing off, these lodgings let you quietly treat yourself to the luxury you deserve.

Everything worth doing in Alpine is within walking distance from this loft!

These lofts are some of the best kept secret in Texas. Use the instant booking option to reserve this space immediately or contact me with any questions you may have.

The lofts are located in an alley between 6th & 7th Streets.

Guest Access:
Guests have access to their loft and the courtyard which include a charcoal grill.

The Neighborhood:
-Sul Ross State University is about 8 blocks east on Holland
-There are also some great hiking trails behind the university that give you an amazing 360 view of the country (15-20 minutes up)
-Star Gazing party at McDonald's Observatory in Fort Davis about 45 minutes away.
-Big Bend National Park/the Mexican border are about 45 minutes south.
-Amtrak is across the street
-Holland Avenue is one block north of Murphy Street and it is the "other" main street (on the north side of the "tracks": Amtrak) Bars, restaurant, galleries a very short stroll away!

Getting Around:
Alpine is located at "the hub of the wheel" and the neighboring communities of Marfa (West/huge minimalist art scene:Donald Judd), Marathon (East/Gage Hotel), Fort Davis (North: McDonald's Observatory/Historic Fort) are approx. 20 minutes away in any given direction.

Other Things to Note:
The Amtrak Train rolls thru town once or twice a day. It can be a bit noisy, but ear plugs are provided with each stay for those light sleepers

Pet friendly with prior notice. A pet fee will be requested a few days before your arrival.

Interaction with Guests:
Check-in is completely automated.

Perfect Loft Getaway

We really enjoyed staying in Loft4. It was convenient to walk around town as well as a central location to visit the surrounding area. Even better, because it was late January, we essentially had the place to ourselves. The fenced in patio allowed us to let our two dogs in / out without having to put on their leashes. Communication with the manager was VERY easy and she responded quickly to our questions. We'd definitely stay here again when we visit the Alpine area.

It is rare to rent a property that is exactly as advertised. All furnishings were new and the room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. I highly recommend this property especially if you are traveling with a pet.

Just what I needed

I needed a place to stay while my son backpacked the Outer Loop trail at Big Bend. This was a perfect spot. April made the whole process easy and was readily available throughout the stay. Location was perfect, in walking distance to great shops and restaurants. Wi-Fi was great and I was able to work while I was there, including several video calls. Place was clean and well provisioned and the outdoor (shared) patio with bbq, table and chairs, and small freestanding fireplace was really nice.

Basic and austere

The size of the unit is fine for two people, with the bed being generous (soft mattress). We found the unit easy to access and really enjoyed the patio for our pet and use of the grill. The kitchen has the most minimal set up I’ve ever experienced with 2 of each basic utensil, cup, plate and bowl. No cooking staples like seasonings, dry goods, oil, or sharp knives, missing correct coffee filters, or serving platters of any type. Further, the two coffee cups were unclean when we arrived, the bathtub/shower was dirty and the skylight leaked for two days during rainy weather. The bathtub was also very slippery and presents a fall hazard without a rubber mat. The toilet runs off and on all night. The kitchen faucet leaks despite all efforts to stop it. Without a nightlight, the bathroom is pitch black at night, so we donated one from Tru Value down the street. Finally, despite the extensive instructions left for study, the climate control unit was ornery and difficult to use. We are seasoned travelers who go with the flow but this place is not luxurious or chic. It is basic, shabby and spartan.

Cute Loft!

We really enjoyed our stay in the loft! The loft is located between the two main roads in Alpine and is very convenient for walking to/from bars and restaurants. There is a charcoal grill in the shared courtyard, which we used and was a great amenity to have available. We had our dog with us and there is a convenient grassy area by the courthouse with pet waste stations (just a block over). The convenience of that little spot was great for anyone traveling with pets. The parking in the ally is very tight, but we were able to park there with our truck with no problem. The train is close by, but we were not disturbed by it at all. I saw many comments about it when we booked and the host provided ear plugs so I was expecting the train to be loud. It was not loud at all. April was responsive to our needs while we stayed there. We loved our time in the loft and are already looking at the calendar to find a time to go back in the spring!

Easy to access, great price, perfect for one person

This was a great little find. It is a small studio, but offers a full fridge, microwave, stove, sink, seating area, dining table, large bed and bathroom. Alpine is about a 2 hour drive from Big Bend, but it is an easy, quiet, peaceful drive. Alpine itself doesn’t have much to offer in terms of restaurants or entertainment. I stayed Sunday-Thursday and many of the restaurants and shops were closed several of those days. But I came for the peace and the park, so that wasn’t too much of an issue for me. The only concerns were that you could hear the neighbors talking/moving around. Of the four nights I stayed two were rather noisy, the other two were fine. There is a great little window by the front door, but it does let in a lot of light right to the bed when the sun rises. I could not get the streaming services to work on the tv. If there was laundry access, it would have been more desirable, but overall it was a great place for the price.

Going to camp.

This was a great, quiet, place to stay. The central location was great. The worry about the train noise wasn’t needed. The bed is so comfy I slept right through it. Traveling alone I felt very secure. I was in the area to go to a camp reunion. I will re-rent and just enjoy Alpine.

Very well kept place in the heart of Alpine. We enjoyed all the amenities that April provided while also being in the heart of downtown Alpine. You can easily walk to all the restaurants and bars and not worry about driving/parking. My wife and I will come back and make sure to stay here again. Thanks.
