Unfortunately I was given an unfinished room in an unfinished building so the rating is not rleated to the standard quality of this motel. Two stars would have been a more suitable grade for the room but I judged the poor decision of the management to assign an unfinished room at full price. I selected this place based on the photos and evaluation of other guests which didn’t apply to my room. A few positive thinks, silence ( I was by myself in this part of the building : ), new floor, hot water and sympathetic front desk. Photos available

Did not stay at this property because the reservation was made on the wrong date. A change was requested immediately but Expedia refused to make the change. I will never use Expedia again for anything.

Dont book here
This was a disgusting hotel. There were bugs dead and alive on the walls and the windows. The service was absolutely terrible. They were slow, late with check in and then couldn’t be bothered when we needed help with a room key. I would never stay there again. Groos.

Check in was supposed to be at 3pm, We called in advance asking if we could check in a few minutes early since we had to be at a wedding by 4pm. We arrived at 2:40, by 3:20 our room was still not ready; there were about 10 ppl waiting for rooms and in similar situation. They keep paging housekeeping and they were not answering. We had to leave and get dressed at the wedding venue, which is totally inconvenient; leaving our luggage in the car until we checked in at midnight. This morning when we went to shower there was no body wash in the bathroom, no bath mat, one face towel and the towels were tiny. There were a couple of what looked like dirty tissues under the bed; even after they had all afternoon to “clean the room”. Never staying there again!

We stayed 2 wonderful nights at the Northern Queen Inn!!! My family and I were wanting somewhere close to the hiking trails we were planning to go to! It was right by all the beautiful trails. The Northern Queen in grounds were quiet, clean, family friendly and most all of DOG FRIENDLY!!! the staff was very nice & attentive. The grounds were beautiful, connecting the the train museum and an awesome hiking trail with a bridge leading into a beautiful park!! We love staying at the Northern Queen Inn, & will be back soon!!! Ignore the bad reviews.. this place is a perfect hidden gem in the sierras! ❤️🏔️🥰

It was perfect for an inexpensive place to stay. I booked the room so I could go on a hike early in the morning. Things were worn down but well maintained for the age. I want to stay in one of the cabins next time.

We stay here quite a bit.. The chalets are great for our family. The staff is always accommodating. This time, we were checked into 303... It was disgusting. It smelled horrible. The room was filthy. This was disappointing and has never happened before. The staff was quick to relocate us to a chalet that was being cleaned. We had to wait past check in to get this chalet (this was frustrating as it was 4 pm ). However, we had a great visit like usual. I think this was a fluke, as it is usually spotless and we enjoy the seclusion of the property.

Property location is great and the grounds with the creek and foliage are beautiful. However, the structures need a rehab. I stayed in a Chalet. Concept is nice but it had problems: 1. Carpet very stained in multiple places. 2. A/C unit was noisy and blowing warm air. 3. Windows had no screens and would not close; I did not feel safe. 4. Furniture old and stained. If I wasn’t so tired , I would have looked for somewhere else to stay.

The room was filthy. Hole in tin, wet paper cups, pee around toilet , broken tv, unaccomodating staff as the room smelled of mold , when I requested another room I was told they could give me a can of air freshener but no room. The noise was bad at night , had to call desk about group of loud men. It was awful. It absolutely ruined the last night of what was meant to be a special trip

You get what you pay for
This motel was average. It was not clean and they have no room service. They did not clean the room or empty the trash each day (I don't need bedding changed daily, but towels and trash is expected). This room was large and it looked like I stepped into a motel room from the late 70's early 80's as that had to be the last time it was upgraded. There were no bugs in the room, but it was not clean nor "sanitized". The sheets were clean but had spots of stained blood on them. I guess you get what you pay for.
