Little Costly last minute because I was screwed out of a room at the other end of town but this place is definitely the way to go. Food in all directions. Rooms are comfy and are a good place to digest JTs food from across the street.

Bed was the best hotel bed I’ve ever slept in. However, be forewarned: staff is scarce if you need something your usually hunting someone down, if you’re one the first floor you will hear every footstep/chair slide from the room above you. Wifi is weak at best.

Very quaint, clean and comfortable place to stay. I particularly liked the lobby area. It had a warm, friendly feel to it due to it's rustic decor and the seats/couches were quite comfortable. Highly recommend this motel.

Booked to atrend a friends birthday. It was convenient and reasonably priced. It is dated but wasnt expecting a modern cream de la cream hotel. The staff was very nice and yes, breakfast is definitely doughnuts from a very good bakery. I would stay again if i was in the area.

6/10

This hotel, right on US395 in Garderville was okay, but that’s about it. On the positive, the room was clean, stocked, there was plenty of hot water and the bed was really comfortable - I slept really well. On the down side, the place looked sorta run down, and there were few amenities, no breakfast offering (although it was apparent that they used to offer a breakfast), and the place looked like a basic motel. Worst part is I feel the place was overpriced. The room was worth $70 a night, not $130. It was convenient to nearby dining. The big question, would I ever stay there again? The answer is no..
