This is a very old property but perfect for an overnight stay when you’re on the road. We had the dog and a trailer so it worked out great.
A Great Throwback to the Best Motels of Yesteryear
Old Mill Eatery nearby is great for most meals. The Pizza place on Shasta Dam Ave. is also good. Options are very limited for dining in town, but you can find most anything.
This is a fun quirky place with friendly neighborhood cats to welcome guests. The room was clean and comfortable, not fancy, but had character. It was perfect for a night on our road trip, conveniently located close to the route. We found a nice independent coffee shop nearby for breakfast as we headed back on the road.
Nice little location right next to McDonald's to grab something to eat and get back on the freeway this place is great just for somebody that needs to have a couple days to catch up on some rest.
Easy check in with easy freeway access. Thoughtful staff that explained where the thermostat was so that I could turn on the heat. My pup and I enjoyed and will visit again.
Nice and clean, the room was a little odd and the place is old,,too bad the pool is out of comision. I would stay there again if I needed a place close.
