    Location! Smack right at the center of downtown. Love the history of the place and the characteristics of the room. The water pressure of the shower was strong. Had several big windows in my room that gave lots of light and fresh air during my stay.

    Location is great and always such a welcome place to stay near the end of my annual road trip. My late husband and I enjoyed being there at the end of our camping trips in the Trinity Alps. I appreciate that dogs are always welcome there.

    Very clean and welcoming. I loved the decor. It had a charming, historical feel. Located in the heart of downtown, it's surrounded by great shops, yet surprisingly quiet.

    This hotel was awesome,extremely quiet, and peaceful. There are so many great places to shop and eat within a few steps outside the front door. The room was very comfortable. It is older but has everything you need. I will be back for sure!
