Sierra Mountain Inn

Sierra Mountain Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed in a single queen for 3 nights this week. It was a wonderful stay. I arrived a few hours early and the office was not open but there was a sign on the door with a number to call and the nice gentleman came right to the door. He let me check in early. At first I thought this room was so small but after I got situated, I loved how cozy it was. There was extra shelving in the bathroom so I didn’t have to cram all my toiletries onto the vanity or leave them packed. The bathroom was nice and big with a full-length mirror on the back of the door. The shower was hot and wonderful. The sink drained a little slow but this place was built many years ago so I am not holding that against them! The bed was so comfortable and the heat worked great. I could not hear a single noise from anyone else. I would have liked a few more hangers since there was no dresser in the room but I made due by doubling up on the hangers provided. The parking spots are labeled per unit so you get a spot right outside of your room. There were only a few cars there during this visit so I had no issues maneuvering my way in or out but I could imagine if the place was full it might be a little test of your driving skills to back in or back out to the street when leaving. Downtown was just a short walk to all the lovely shops, good restaurants, and other fun things to do downtown. Bonus was that the hotel is in a lovely little neighborhood."
