The room was filthy. Hole in tin, wet paper cups, pee around toilet , broken tv, unaccomodating staff as the room smelled of mold , when I requested another room I was told they could give me a can of air freshener but no room. The noise was bad at night , had to call desk about group of loud men. It was awful. It absolutely ruined the last night of what was meant to be a special trip

You get what you pay for
This motel was average. It was not clean and they have no room service. They did not clean the room or empty the trash each day (I don't need bedding changed daily, but towels and trash is expected). This room was large and it looked like I stepped into a motel room from the late 70's early 80's as that had to be the last time it was upgraded. There were no bugs in the room, but it was not clean nor "sanitized". The sheets were clean but had spots of stained blood on them. I guess you get what you pay for.

If you like cigarette smell...
Everything smelled like cigarettes. It was so awful i had to run to target in the night to get a scented candle in hopes of being able to sleep. Everything was dingy and uncomfortable. Ughh this place is so overpriced!

Wish I could it was great…
The bungalow was filthy. The furniture was stained with visible brown spots and high soil levels. I wouldn’t sit on the couch or chairs. The bed seemed clean, thankfully. The room stunk, and the windows wouldn’t stay open to air it out. No screens on the windows either. The water was shut off to the toilet, and the AC did not work! They never stopped the large group staying next to us from partying ALL night and taking loudly about their sexual explorations and acts. The place could be awesome if it had a remodel, and security to help keep the partying to inside their designated rooms.

I highly recommend the restaurant, excellent. I rented a cabin. Great especially if you have pets. There is a lovely meadow behind the property to walk dogs. But, you have to bring everything to cook and eat with (pots, pans, dishes, utencils, charcoal, etc) just need to be prepared if you plan to eat in. Staff follow up to be sure your stay is going well. Good host services.

Beautiful location. Tons of potential if the right investor were to buy it and remodel it. Staff is very nice and do the best they can with what they have to work with. I've stayed here many times for work, its a place to sleep. Carpet, tile, furniture all needs to be relaced. Plumbing is suspect at best. Its just an old hotel that needs to be gutted and refreshed. Beautiful location, great staff.

Why?
The hotel has so much potential but it looks like they are trying to squeeze every dome out of it. Just renovate and charge more. This chair should be thrown away. Empty space would look better. Smh

Too bright to sleep and smells like yeast.
The outdated room was clean and the staff were very kind. The room did have an odd smell, kind of like yeast. The other bigger issue was that the window covering were only thin plastic blinds. They have lots of lighting outside, adding to security but that light blazes into the rooms because of inadequate window coverings. At night, with the lights off, I could read a book. This makes for difficult sleeping. I asked the staff if there were other rooms with drapes and they said no. Also the primary picture for the advertisement was taken in one of the chalets. The hotel rooms are very outdated and the mattress was hard and lumpy. I ended up staying elsewhere on my second night in Nevada City to get sleep. The hotel is cute from the outside and the staff were so kind that it’s hard to give it the lowest rating but I wouldn’t recommend staying here if sleep is a priority.

I enjoyed staying in the cabin. It was comfortable, but could use a bit of an upgrade. Enjoyed the quiet sitting on the deck watching the bird's and squirrels.

We stayed in a Chalet. It really has a lot of potential and it was clean, but had a bleachy smell and really felt like it needed an update. Im guessing for the price it attracts a certain population type, which requires them to have matress covers that are usually reserved for children that wet the bed. It was a noisy night's sleep to say the least. The vaulted ceilings with skylights, and loft vibe was super cool, but the rest of it felt like a cheap apartment. Should have read the reviews ahead of time! Our room, thankfully, had no bugs. 😬
