We stayed at this hotel so we did not have to drive home to Redding after our daughter’s basketball team competed at Lassen High. We did not enter the ****** or eat at the restaurant. There was a strong smell of cigarette smoke from the ****** that lingered in the lobby, but we were so thankful it did not enter the actual rooms. We were also delighted to see it was not a pet-friendly hotel. (Nothing worse than being subjected to other people’s dogs barking nonstop when they are left alone. Or, having them lunge at you or your children in the hallways.) The room was clean and comfortable and well appointed. We have stayed at many hotels over the years, and we agree that this was one of the most pleasant stays. A big thank you to the kind and welcoming staff too!
