I’ve stayed at this hotel twice now and absolutely love it! The casino is fun of course, but the hotel itself is super clean and the staff has always been very friendly and helpful. Staying at the hotel gets you a voucher for breakfast the next day for a few dollars off whatever you purchase which is a nice little perk. The room has always been clean and there is an abundance of parking. The location is amazing as it’s right off the highway — has a gas station next to it — and is located right outside of some amazing sights/drives to explore in the Humboldt/Redwood areas of the area. This reason alone is why I’ve stayed here as it’s a great spot to rest your head when exploring The Lost Coast! Also being able to support the Bear River community is great! Highly recommend staying here and I can’t wait to visit again!
Huge bear in front of main lobby!
