We loved the on-line check-in and the automated door locks. We never saw any staff members. No breakfast (that we knew about) but there is a Starbucks etc very close

Budget inn surpassed expectations. Self checkin, size-able room, comfortable bed (we like a firm mattress) and convenient location, walkable to town. Great for a simple stay on your way through Mt. Shasta.

This a no-frills motel which is a reasonably priced accommodation within a 3 min. drive to downtown Mount Shasta. Rooms were renovated recently, although the heater was extremely loud and we had to turn it off at night.

Quite disappointing. No one on site, it's a fully digital hotel. TV remote did not work. No amenities at all. Basically just a place to sleep. Wouldn't spend more than 1 night here.

It was fine, especially for one night. It's nothing to look at, but it's clean and quiet, except for the occasional sound of a freight train in the distance. The bed was reasonably comfortable. It's equipped with a little refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker. But don't bother to upgrade to what they call a"Terrace". It's a back door that opens to a shared strip of sidewalk, featuring a small weed field behind some houses.

The motel room was very plain and very basic, which I expected since its ** motel. The room was clean and The staff was very nice pleasant. However, the reason for the lower rating was the chemical smell in my room that lingered for days even though in the minute I walked into my room I would opened the windows and door to air the room. It finally dissipated after 5 days on the day I checked out.

The place clearly needs new carpet. It was hard to sleep with how dirty the place was. I didn’t feel comfortable walking around barefoot. This is coming from someone who works outside and gets dirty daily.

Overall my stay was 9/10. The room is spacious with everything you need and match what’s listed in the description from the hotel. The two downside of the hotel was the bed it was hard as a rock and not comfortable at all & the shower. The shower head was not adjustable & the pressure was high. I’m 5’3 so is sprayed directly in my face with tremendous force. So I had to stand off to the side which was an annoyance. Otherwise everything was great. The manager, housekeeper & owner were very accommodating & friendly. The noise level is minimal and you might hear the train pass by at night but no traffic noise. Will definitely stay at this hotel again.

A relief to walk into this clean, uncarpeted room after a long, hot day of driving. New shower, sink and toilet. Happy to have air conditioning but the unit was noisy, even with earplugs. The location was very quiet though and gets extra points for the chorus of frogs that greeted us. Friendly management.

They have an online check in that is supposed to give you the digital code to enter your room, but it just sent me into a continuous loop. I didn’t think that would be a big deal, I would just check in at the motel when I arrive. Well, I arrive at 12:30 PM to find the lobby door locked with a written sign, saying “be back at 2 PM.“ in addition, I paid extra for a mountain view. But they don’t tell you is the Mountain View is through your front windows across the parking lot and his room close to the road with loud traffic noise. Finally, this place is at the very southern end of town and it’s surrounded by a bunch of rundown and deserted properties.

I loved everything. The price was really great. The room was simple and clean, checking in on your phone made it super easy since I arrived pretty late at the hotel. They even called to ask if I had everything that I needed before I checked in just in case the staff was amazing. I only stayed one night, but I will definitely be back.

I've stayed here for a few years now each summer due to its proximity to the Lake Siskiyou Campgrounds.

The owners are friendly and it is consistently clean and a pleasure to stay at.
