Sierra Mountain Inn

8/10 Good

"We had an unexpected stay at almost 9:00 p.m., The manager was very helpful, texting me back immediately and making sure everything was okay."

Comfort Inn & Suites Rocklin - Roseville

8/10 Good

"Overall, the property was in good condition. The rooms were clean and in proper working condition. The staff were helpful and mindful. The elevators were fast and efficient. Sadly at check-in, there was only one person at the front desk and a line going to the front entrance. A second person would have been helpful. The one person did the best they could under the circumstance. Unfortunately, there were several things that needed repair. Ice maker was out on the floor I stayed. Had to go to a different floor for ice. The restroom in the fitness center was out of order. The juice machine was not functioning, so we were limited to only juice. We appreciate that you have amenities, but if you're going to advertise them, then they should be in good working order. All these things in repair could have been fixed in one day. I was there for three days and these items were down before I got there."

National Exchange Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was very small and the only place to hang clothes was on a wall hook with three hangers. The bathroom was really large, so perhaps a real clothes rod could be put in there? Our view was a brick wall a few feet away, so that was disappointing. There was a nice lounge area with a ginormous couch where we spent evenings, but the bar there was closed. USB ports would be nice somewhere in the hotel."
