Clean, Charming, Quiet, and Friendly
Previn was so friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable. The motel is in a quiet location, and there are good places to eat nearby. Our stay was excellent and I would highly recommend this charming motel and their staff! Thank you Previn!!

Cozy stay before the snow
We left late for our trip up and didn’t get in til after midnight. The owner called us along the way to let us know restaurants were closing early in the area in case we were hoping for dinner nearby that night. When we finally made it up, we were so taken care of we immediately book marked this place for our next trip.

This simple but brilliantly maintained. Classic property was absolutely immaculate. We were arriving late because of traffic and the proprietor messaged us about our arrival time. After I responded, he encouraged me to drive safely, take my time and find a little dinner on the way up because little would be open when we arrived. He greeted us cheerfully when we finally arrive and offered some cookies, fruit and bottles of water.
The property's right in town, very walkable and convenient.

This probably one of the best motels I've stayed at. The owner was so friendly and welcoming. The benches right outside feels like a nice picnic at the park. Great place to say if you're hiking Big Pine Creek! Only 25 minutes from the trailhead.

This motel is similar to the ones we stayed at when I was a kid in the 1950's. The rooms are smallish but adequate. The husband and wife who run it (owners?) are very nice. The ice machine was not much forthcoming with the ice and probably should be replaced. It's a clean and decent place, and I'd consider it again if I were back in the area.

Cute little old style motor inn
As reviews promised we had a very nice greeting by the owner. First impressions are so important. He gave us a nice basket with a crisp apple, a banana, cookies, and 2 water bottles. The room had a comfy king, fridge, and full size coffee pot. Right outside were the Sierra, featuring a glacier. They have a nice vegetable garden, gas grill and fire pit. We will return

Extremely nice, personable front desk staff that offered us water, fruit and cookies when we checked in. The motel is an older motel but that didn't detract from our stay. We found it very clean. And it was nice to have a microwave and fridge in the room. This rating is more a 4 1/2 star - 5 for the awesome staff and 4 for the room.

This is an older motel but the owner has kept it up well and is very customer-focused. The room was clean with comfortable beds. It worked well for us as a stop-over.
