8/10 Very good

It serves its purpose as an affordable place to crash when skiing for a night or two.
Kevin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a perfect and convenient location for an overnight stay to visit family.
Tracy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Best and cheapest hotel in town!!! Great place, very accommodating. Sweet owners! 10/10 would recommend.
David, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Just don’t do it!

This was something from a David Lynch film. Pulling in you hear dueling banjos echoing from the rooms because the doors are all open with the live-in occupants either loitering on their “porches” smoking and staring or just sitting on their beds, staring and waiting for the inevitable FEDS to topple in. The gal at the desk was super friendly but that’s the o my positive about this place, but 5 minutes of positive interaction does not make up for one second spent in this disgusting place. We paid for 2 nights and dipped after one, knowing the second was nonrefundable. The room was beyond filthy, the bedding/linens were stained and literally falling apart and shredded. Walls so dirty you could see the diets smeared on them. Bathroom so grimy we didn’t even want to use it. I’m sure, well probably, at one time the towels provided were white…alas they are way past their prime and are a hazy shade of grey. My advice would be this: please take the $300 we spent, buy some paint, bleach, Mr. Clean magic erasers and new linens (there’s a Kohls in Sonora) and I bet you will still have enough to buy yourself dinner after the work is finished! Do something though, cuz this place should not be charging more than $50/night…then it would be expected.

Don't go...

It was a all around safely hazard, electrical outlets exposed, hair dryer started smoking, mattresses were very uncomfortable, tv didn't work...
Mario, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The lady at the front desk was accommodating. Maybe we just didnt know what to expect from a motel. If you like hair free, stainfree sheets and towels, bring your own. Smells like cigarette smoked covered of with strong perfume smells. Window on our ground floor bathroom didnt close. The lady was accommodating enough to give us another room and brought "new/clean" sheets and blanket. The heat worked great. Didnt use the shower. The wheelchair room doesnt have a closet or space to hang/put things besides a desk. Maybe motels are just not for us. Thanks anyway

Rustic, quiet, coffee in the room. Staff very nice.
Lore, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

You get what you paid

You get what you paid… maybe a little less. The room is ok and there is microwave, coffee machine and mini fridge,. The heater was working fine and the receptionist is helpful and very polite. However we got a non smoker room that was smelling like a cigarette. The towels also had a very strong smell of cigarette and bathroom floor was dirty. Didn’t expect this kind of basic issues in a motel and the experience was upsetting

6/10 Good

We checked in and were put in room 3. It was not acceptable so we asked front desk for a different room. They were polite and quickly gave us a new room which was more acceptable. The place is a bit old and run down but all in all it served its purpose for the price. Twain Harte is a cool little town, make a visit to Pinecrest Lake if you’re looking for some fun.
Mitchell, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Cool vintage motor lodge. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Beds were comfortable enough for one night, but probably wouldn’t stay longer. Room was clean except for the floor… good Wi-Fi and very thankful that they had a generator since the power went out all night!
William, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Decent

Front desk guy was nice, but the room was run down and dirty, but acceptable to myself for one nights sleep, and the location, in Twain Harte is good
Franklin, 1-night trip

Dumpster on property was overflowing with trash onto the ground. Property need some maintenance
Kelvin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Shower did not have hot water because handle was broken. Beds are so thin you can feel the springs. It's a tiny town so it's about as "motel" as it gets. The owner was nice.
