No place to take the dog

It was dog friendly but no place nearby to take the dog to the bathroom. The room was small and dark but clean.

Middle of the road hotel

We booked multiple rooms for a family gathering. Some of the rooms were definitely nicer than others. It was tough only having double beds instead of queens. There were multiple breakfast items to choose from. There is not a pool as shown on some websites, but staff was friendly and helpful.

Not alot of choices in Alturas. The property is fine for a nights sleep at a motel. Not a vacation destination or resort, suitable for a good nights sleep. Bed was very firm

Very old outdated town as well as hotel/motel accommodations. Hotel advertises a pool on the property -- pool was cemented over years ago. hot breakfast consisted of biscuits and gravy only, plus the usual packaged junk. Desk clerk was great, but he is not an owner....
