Only stayed one night. Room was clean, air conditioner worked well, and I was greeted by a beautiful cat when I checked in. Friendly and they let us check in early. I liked the idea of a deck with chairs, but they need to clear up the view. Only downfall, there was a small view of the lake, but there was a living room lounge chair and poop trucks as part of the view from the porch. Room 4

Great views but needs new mattresses

This place could be very charming. The rooms have amazing views. The layout of the rooms are great. The mattresses were horrible. I overlooked a few things because the price was so low. The bathroom door was broken but that doesn’t bother me. The mattresses need replacing and it would increase the rating of the room tremendously. I would go back every time to the location if they replaced them

No hot water whatsoever. Holes in the walls. Terrible double beds. No working WiFi. Patio had faulty and broken wooden planks so a huge safety hazard. This place was a nightmare in every sense of the word. I was on a 5 day trip. Switched hotels the first morning of my trip. Don’t get fooled by the cheap prices..there is no value here in any shape, way or form.

Marginally Adequate

This is a very dated property, and the property's location down winding side roads was hard to find and not very close to Grass Valley/ Nevada City. The facility dates back to the 1960's, and it shows its age and some neglect. Little has been done to maintain or update it. All that said, the staff was nice, and they do offer one of the few opportunities for short term accommodations at a reasonable price. For that reason, it is adequate for a short stay for the budget conscious if you're willing to put up with the limited services and inconvenient location. I feel the Inn is best for guests who are already familiar with the Alta Sierra area.

Hidden Gem

I need to travel to grass Valley for two months for my nursing program. I found this hotel and decided to book it based on the price and was not expecting much because of the price. I was pleasantly surprised! The unit is very big. When you first walk in, you have a bathroom area to the left and then a fridge and microwave on the right and then you walk down a few stairs into the actual room which is a very large space. It doesn’t come with a lot of extras, but it was definitely worth the price and the surrounding area is quiet and pretty. I liked it so much that I booked it out every week for my clinical rotation that I am there.
