Check in was great. The room was clean. However- the room smelled HORRIBLE. I was traveling with my kids. And we had to leave to try to air out the room for 3 hours- and it still was just awful.

The location was great and walkable distance to all the fun spots in Sonora, the staff was very friendly, rooms were clean. We were told not to cook or use the microwave that was in our rooms. Paper thin walls. Do not stay on the first floor, we had what sounded like a herd of elephants above us starting @ 5am non stop until 10am, both mornings.. If we return I think we may consider trying the sister property, Sonora Inn.

We checked in, and they gave us room 257. We walk back over to Hotel Lumberjack (check in and reception is actually at a different hotel across the street), go up to the room, and open the door to find wires hanging out of the ceiling, dirty bootprints on the bed, tools, and electrical debris. Someone left in the middle of doing work on the room. I call the lobby, and the woman at the desk apologizes and gets us a room downstairs, room 157. She walks us down, and the bathroom wasn’t cleaned and there’s a sign inside saying the tv is out of order. She apologizes again and takes us to room 153. In 153, the AC is broken and they’ve put a box fan on a chair - on a 97F day. She apologizes again and says they’re out of rooms. They can refund me or give me a discount. I wanted out. This place is awful. All 3 of those incidents in one day? That’s not one error, that is clear indication of mismanagement and a hotel in disarray. Do yourself a favor and do not stay here, or at their parent property, the Sonora Inn.

Check-in was across the street at another hotel. not mine. There were NO ice machines on either property. We Had to go to the front text at another hotel next door to get ice handed to you. There wasn’t a pool. We had to Share a pool and it only had just 2 lounge chairs for the entire guest at BOTH hotels. There wasn’t enough parking and the spaces were tiny so much do our SUV wouldn’t fit. Very disappointed.

The front door of the hotel is on the main street. Plenty of restaurants and small stores within a 5 minute walk. The hotel was built more than 100 years ago in an old mining town. The design is quite interesting. The staff is awesome. The outdoor ice machines were broken. I had to go to the front desk for ice. The people at the front desk offered to deliver more ice. I prefer drinking out of a glass over a can or plastic cup. I asked the front desk if they had glasses. The lady at the front desk found some glasses from days gone by. She even washed the glasses before she gave them to me. This is a great place to stay. The location, service and price excellent. Hotel Lumberjack is part of the Sonora Inn. I imagine the Sonora Hotel bought the Lumberjack Inn and changed the names around.

I would say that my stay is average because of the room size. They are pretty small and there is not enough parking on the property. I had to park opposite the property which is the Bank of America parking lot.

Clean, comfortable with a couple minor adjustments

Pros: in King Suite… very comfortable bed, very clean and kept up room, nice check in host in the evenings, tv casting from phone option, large desk, fridge (pretty small), quiet at night, places to sit and put your suitcase, good closet space, cute microwave. El Arroyo restaurant nearby is great. Cons: no desk lighting only giant heavy super bright lights overhead that fills the whole room so you can’t work if someone else is trying test or wind down, no variation in pillows (all too high), tv remote would not just change channels with moving the channel button up and down as the channel number had to put in manually which was a major pain since some channel numbers don’t work.
