There was very little food available at 715 when i left for work, I was told the night before that everything would be available at that time. Neither door key worked until being reprogrammed. Pubic hair in shower, longer hair in sink. Hot tub was not hot.

There was a dirty diaper under one of the beds in my work and then crayons and other things under the other bed. My sheets were a little dirty and had some stains on them. I had a friend who stayed in another room and there was a huge hawaiian role that had been under the bed for who knows how long.

Great location for essentials shopping, dining and easy access to grass valley. Tamara is a great manager and the staff was absolutely fabulous. It was nice having the exercise room available 24/7 and the breakfast was a real meal. The room was clean and appeared to be recently upgraded, I rate it 5 Stars for a reasonably priced hotel.

Hotel room was clean but a little tired… sliding glass door was difficult to open, and there was no screen. Microwave could use a little updating… The bed was comfortable. Linens were nice and clean bathroom had a new door and shower faucets, but the shower itself was a little dated.
