Everything was fine- as others have stated, the outside looks to be under renovation, but rooms are nice and new. Staff friendly, but on the Orbitz page for the hotel it clearly states that pets are $15/night. They charged me $30. When I realized this, Orbitz called them and they refused to refund, giving some excuse that made not sense (like that was for a different website and the room discount cancels that pet rate). They did not honor the price. Orbitz ended up giving me a coupon, which is great, but I wasted a bunch of time. I chose that hotel based on that pet fee and then they didn't honor it.

I booked 4 rooms for my family for 2 nights. I was getting married in Valley Springs and we needed a place to sleep. There are not many options in the area, so we didn't expect much. This property exceeded our expectations! They made obvious effort to make the guests comfortable and they seemed to be in the middle of upgrading rooms. I loved the free toothbrushes and mini toothpastes. Some rooms have dispensers in the bathroom. They also made cute animals out of the towels. I would recommend this hotel since the owners seem to care about theor business and are trying to improve it.

This is an older property but my room was nicely remodeled and clean with a good bed. The exterior still looks rundown, but Room 317 was just fine: a decent room at a fair price. The pool is empty and overgrown. If you just want a good night's sleep at a fair price, this works!

The manager was very polite and even opened the door to our room for my sister and me . My sister is going to a concert while I enjoy this very, very nice newly remodeled location. I will definitely be coming here whenever I'm in or around San Andreas. 10/10 would recommend.

The property itself was better than expected with new renovations. HOWEVER, the DOOR LOCKS ARE NOT SECURE. The manager walked into my room after dark (he said "by mistake") after a brief knock. He did not acknowledge my response and let himself in with the master key when the door locks were engaged. I did not feel safe at this location and left immediately.

Booked a non smoking room, but the room did have a faint smell of smoke when we got in. Also smelled cannabis smoke when we came back later, so that must have wafted from a connecting room. There was a full size tub in the bathroom, but no tub faucet or drain stopper, so I was unable to bathe my 1 year old daughter like I normally do. Instead I had to have the shower blasting her and she kept slipping and sliding. The couch did have a pull out bed so that was convenient for her. The property manager was nice and accommodating when we had trouble with our outlets at night, since I require a plug for my cpap machine. We stayed 2 nights but our room wasn't made up and our towels weren't changed anytime during the stay. You get what you pay for.

Hi Carlos,Thank you for staying and I sincerely apologize for the troubles you had.- First thing I did today was to investigate the smell of smoke that you experienced. This is personally unacceptable to me and I have asked our team to investigate this right away. - Your issue with CPAP machine was brought to my attention and this weekend we have added brand new plugs next to each bed to accommodate future guests. I believe Jay was able to sort this out and thank you for letting us know about this improvement.- We have recently re-done all of our showers and grab bars are being installed this month for safety concerns. Our showers are very fast and at times this can be challenging on kids, I will ask our maintenance team to see if we can slow down the speed.- Our housekeeping is done every other day unless we are called upon however I will make sure our staff actively reached out to see if someone would like their rooms done daily. Thank you for letting us know about all of this issues you had encountered and we will work hard to address this.We hope next time you come visit us you will find our place much more accommodating.

The city of San Andreas is pretty drab so don't pull into this lot expecting it to look like the Hilton. The room itself however was very nice. It looked like they put a lot of effort into making it look nice. I would've given it a higher rating but the TV didn't work in my room.

My husband, our son and i stayed one night and will never stay again . We had bought a pie , put it in the refrigerator, opened the refrigerator to eat some of it and there was a cockroach crawling on top of it. This was the only place to stay so unfortunately we did. The next morning I mentioned it to the manager and he dealt with the situation as if it was no big deal.

Our property gets insect treatment every month you can come visit our front office and check on this logs. Then she called Hotels.com to request for a full refund 3 days post stay. We are sorry but this is not how we would want to be treated.

Unexpected
This wasn't what I expected. The pics are all very nice and displayed the layout of my room, however, they didn't, at all, represent the condition of the room. Although my bed was clean, there were live roaches, dead roaches; smashed on the ceiling & walls, and dead insects all over the floor. My door (room 203) could not be opened from the inside after closing. A friendly neighbor informed me that I had to open the window and place my key card in front of the sensor and turn the handle from outside. This has to be a fire hazard. Needless to say, it wasn't a new problem and the very friendly gentleman who checked me in, knew of it when I asked for a different room; which was not available. I slept, poorly, with the lights on all night (in the hope of keeping the roaches at bay) and won't be returning.

Hi there.I'm sorry to hear about your experience during your stay at Sierra Inn. Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused by the condition of your room and the issue with the door. Unfortunately you were given a room that is on the part of the motel that is fairly dated. As we acquired the property in November 2022, we started working on remodeling our rooms. Due to this 15 rooms were out of the service.When you arrived at 11:53PM, this was the last room available and our manager should've informed that the room is subpar.The concerns on the ceiling and walls have been addressed as we have repainted most of the rooms now. The door lock issue was due to batteries running out and I have asked the housekeeping staff to replace the automatic lock batteries every 3 months to ensure this does not happen again. We take all guest feedback seriously, and we appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Thank you for choosing Sierra Inn, and we apologize again for any inconvenience caused.
