    This is a very old property but perfect for an overnight stay when you’re on the road. We had the dog and a trailer so it worked out great.

    This is a fun quirky place with friendly neighborhood cats to welcome guests. The room was clean and comfortable, not fancy, but had character. It was perfect for a night on our road trip, conveniently located close to the route. We found a nice independent coffee shop nearby for breakfast as we headed back on the road.

    The price and location were GREAT! Although the building, windows, shower and sink were original (not updated), the bed was as PERFECT, AND as nice as I would expect from very expensive hotel. The carpet looked old, but everything was very clean. The room was quiet, spacious and comfortable -- so we slept great. The shower was hot, and the bath towels were clean and soft. There was a refrigerator, microwave and a coffee maker. Thank you!!! We had a great experience. If you like a little vintage vibe for your road trip, I think the Shasta Dam Motel fits the bill. The lamp on the table was broken and wobbled. I think it should be replaced. Overall, we had a great stay. Thank you.

    The host did not even look at my reservation. So charge me for 1 night when I was staying for 2. Then, try to kick me out the second night. When I went up to talk to him in his little area that he does his business. There was urine on the floor. Never saw bugs sheets were clean.But other than that, it was a train wreck. It said it had a pool, but it was empty and the air conditioning could barely keep it cool enough. The bathroom was hideous as well as the kitchenette. Not worth a $97 dollars a night. Sorry I didn't take more pictures. And it's right next to the freeway.I mean, right next to the freeway.

    It’s clean and comfortable. My only issue was that I booked the room on one card, and had intended on charging the room to another card. Expedia told me the card I used to reserve the room would not be charged. When I got there to put the room on my company card they had already charged my personal card. Not that big a deal…just not what I was told would happen. Other than that the place was cleaned and comfortable with good amenities.

    Property is visibly older but very well maintained, clean and equipped with all the modern day conveniences (fridge, microwave, coffee station, wifi). Its just off one of the surface streets so once or twice we could hear traffic but not in any way disruptive. Right off the freeway, perfect. Pricing was perfect for us. If you're looking for reasonably priced, convenient location with basic essentials this is a good spot. But if you're looking for bargain basement pricing with Ritz Carlton accommodation, keep looking. This place has charm and character and met our needs perfectly.

    So often I see reviews where people pay a low price for a room and then complain they're not staying in a $250 room. I've learned to ignore these clueless individuals. In short, if you want a clean room with basic amenities and friendly staff, you've come to the right place. Next time I'm in the area, I'll be sure to stay here again. I rate this place is excellent!

    Expedia, strongly recommend you pull this listing from your site! I have trusted your advertised sites and been completely satisfied until now. Pictures on your site were totally deceptive. The “pool”was empty of water and surface was cracked; pool deck was full of garbage , so had been that way for some time. There was no “fire pit” but a dirty gas grill surrounded by broken rusted old kitchen chair- no tools to clean or grill with. The exterior was dilapitated with rain gutters almost fully detached. The room we were given was NOT the room I reserved on line. Instead of what looked like a clean, standard room with 1 king size bed, we got a room with 2 queen beds. The bedspreads were stained; the dresser was severely damaged with broken handles, 2 drawers were actually filled with putty around the edges so you could not open them. The bathroom window was broken and boarded up with plywood and wanting a shower after a long day of hiking and driving, when I turned on the water, bugs crawled out of the drain. Lastly, pulled the sheets and mattress cover back- BED BUGS EVERYWHERE; multiple mattress stains. Needless to say - we promptly left. The management was completely unforgiving .

    I stayed here in July when it was over 100 degrees outside. Room had great AC. Great location I went to the dam and took the tour. It’s 10 minutes away from dam or fishing at the lake. 2 minutes from the motorcycle shop. Very clean. Great WiFi. Very nice staff. Room had separate dining and kitchen area with fridge, freezer, microwave. Clean room and bathroom. Nice tv with lots of channels. I will stay here wherever I’m in the area. Very convenient. Walk to food options, gas station. Felt safe. Was easy to work on the laptop. It was quiet. Very enjoyable experience. Great value at this place. Better than more expensive chain motels and hotels that I’ve stayed at. And the best location for visiting the lake for fishing, boat ramp, or dam for tour and hiking.

    This is a great hotel for under $100. It is Ma and Pa owned and has a Route 66 vibe to it and I liked the location of this motel. It is located right off the exit on Interstate 5, gas stations and food a block up the street. There is no riff raff near this moteI and it is very safe to stay here. I parked my vehicle just a couple of steps from my room and the room was large with ammenities, coffee maker, refrigerator and wi fi. The heat is central air and is great for Mt. Shasta winters. I can't wait to visit this place in the summer. Ma and Pa hotels are the best.

    This is a remote location. Feeling safe in a hotel/motel room is a priority. Several of the window's locks didn't work, I didn't feel safe in this location. There was a black stain on the pillowcase that looked like mold. The shower door didn't close all the way and had my mom been traveling with me this trip, she would not have been able to fit in the tiny area of the toilet. The price was enticing, it was pet friendly and quiet but I'll pay a little more for safety and cleanliness and stay elsewhere next time.

    Front desk people were very rude & said he wasn't going to charge for the dog & did anyways. Made us put down a $200 deposit, cash only. It was very dirty, bugs in the bathroom. Stained sheets & pillow cases. Overall disgusting & not worth the money & time.

    It’s definitely a get what you pay for kind of place. Beds were not comfortable at all! I was so hopeful with the reviews that we would have a comfortable place to sleep, my husband referred to it as the Flinstones bed(made out of stone) it was rock hard and difficult for my heavily pregnant self to get comfortable to sleep. Bathroom is very tight. It is also right on the edge of the highway so it can get pretty loud with the semi trucks rolling through. Again, it’s more of a get what you pay for kind of thing, the frogs in the stream out back were nice to listen to at night, the staff were friendly and we were left alone, which was what we were looking for so overall not too bad.

    We were in Room 106. It smelled. I'm not sure what the smell was, but I have lung issues and it really bothered my breathing. I had reserved a room with one King size-bed. We were given one Queen, one Full and one Twin (that was in a little add on room with an un-level floor). Odd. The shower was a tiny little closet like space. The sink in the bathroom was about a foot shorter than in most hotels and tiny. The box-springs were dingy and dated but the mattress seemed new and were very comfortable. We were able to park right outside of our room door, and that is why I chose this motel. The owners/managers were lovely and fun. The Carpet and Bed linens seemed new and clean, the towels were clean. The top edge of the curtains in the add-on room were rimed with dust. The short dresser that held the TV had little ledges on the front that were very dusty as was the ledge on top of the headboards. I could not figure out how to turn on the light on the wall in the add-on room. Very few plugins. The only bathroom plugin available was on the old fashioned mirror light. The whole place needs a lot of work/updating. I wish they would remove the carpets and put in simple hard floors like those popular today.
