The room we were in was extremely dated. Anyone could break into our room using a credit card if we weren’t using the deadbolt, which you cannot use while away from the room. Lampshades & tops of picture on wall, lights were extremely dusty & hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. Although the fridge was updated with a separate freezer on top, the power outlet the fridge & microwave were plugged into had a short & they wouldn’t stay on. So we could not freeze our ice packs for our cooler & some of our food spoiled. The room had a very faint foul smell & my husband walked from the bed to the shower once without socks & left black footprints in the shower as he showered. I refused to remove my shoes the entire time we stayed as the carpets I’m sure are original to the building & appear to never have been steam cleaned. We arrived late, so our choices were extremely limited. Because it was only one night & we had been driving all day & were exhausted, we chose to stay. Despite this, the shower worked great & there were no bugs. Be aware, the rooms are extremely small. There is only enough room to walk around the bed. No place to keep your suitcase up off the floor.

Easy to book, easy self-check in. Room had all that I needed and was fairly clean. Good location. Did not ever see or talk to staff outside of automated text check-ins etc. NO VACANCY sign was on but only one other car there, which I thought was strange. I was in the very front room by the street, which felt a little unsettling. Shower drain seemed a little backed up. Otherwise, everything was fine and I’d consider staying here for a night again in a pinch.

Snug but warm
Easy self check in. Small rooms a bit dated. Cable wasn’t operating correctly but as there’s no office there was no one to talk to. Decent value for the price paid.

Beds were comfortable, I liked the lock-box for the keys for arriving a bit late in the evening. The rooms were tiny and very hard to manage in with kids and ski clothes/food/etc.

For the price this place is absolutely amazing, feels so cozy the overall design of the furniture, curtains, etc. feels more like home than a hotel. Bed was very comfortable and didn’t have to deal with any staff while checking in or out they leave the key in a lockbox for you. Parking is right outside the door aswell. My 1 and only complaint is the room was very very cold inside and took a couple hours to warm up which sucked because we arrived very late and wanted to take a shower and sleep. Other than that though amazing place would definitely come back here when I visit Shasta.

It was priced right
The check in was perfect and automated. The parking was difficult as not much room. The door had bad gaskets. The room was clean. The heater kept up with the drafts. Over all it worked.

The entire room was updated and the bed was comfortable. Checkin was easy. And it is in a nice location. However, it was quite dirty. When we arrived the toilet seat was up and had urine on it, the floor had pieces of toiletpaper and the wall had toilet splash marks right next to it. Cobwebs on the lights, baseboards are white and covered with dirt and hair. The floor wasnt swept or mopped well, if at all. I wiped up some water from the shower with the bath mat and it was muddy. The bathroom door doesn't close all the way, so when you shower the steam makes the fire alarm go off. The lamp was missing the knob to turn it on and off. Over-all, if it had been clean I would stay again.

Room was nice, bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean. Heater was loud and the curtain arrangement made it impossible to both block out the light and let the heater work.

Don't stay here in the winter. It's supposed to be in the upper 20's tonight and the heat is either on "hot" or its on AC--no ability to set the temp. So I guess I'm supposed to keep the heat on and the window open as to not freeze or be cooked. As the units are all ground level --not feeling very safe to keep my screen door open...and again, it's 30 degrees outside ! Not very enviro conscious or kind to the guests to have to decide to freeze or cook. Thats what you get when you don't pay >$100/night. My bad. Keep looking.

Old property. Exterior light outside room was smashed, so had to unload in dark. Room was clean but old and cramped with weird layout. Bathroom very dated and small. No power outlet in second bedroom. In room coffee service was appreciated. Sufficient for quick overnight on road trip but nothing more.

Nice little place to stay but has some issues.
I stayed one night each two times on a recent road trip, each time in a single bed room. The rooms were clean and comfortable with really nice beds, and decent bathrooms. I found the first room small - it didn't even have a table so it was awkward to eat, otherwise I liked it. Unfortunately the second room, though a bit larger with a table, was noisy due to two factors: 1. It was at the front so the nearby railroad was disturbing. 2. The heater was very noisy. Be aware that this inn works like an Airbnb. There is no interaction with people. You check in on your phone and pick up your key in a lock box. There is no room service and if there are any problems you text to ask for help.

Comfortable bed and pillows, cozy comforter, clean towels and scalding hot water—that’s all I need in a place to stay for a night, so five stars from me. Easy check in with text/lockbox/key, good location just a short walk from downtown and reasonable prices—I’d stay here again!
