Great stay!
The rooms were very clean and the owners very friendly. The Queen bed was comfortable but the king was a bit stiff and springy. Could use a mattress topper.

The Gold Trail Motor Lodge and the Mother Lode Motel apparently now have the same owner. We booked with Mother Lode but ended up next door with a room in the Gold Trail Motor Lodge. For being so close to the freeway our room was remarkably quiet. The bed was comfortable, the shower was immediately hot and the water pressure wonderful. The place was clean. There is room for improvement-- dresser drawers needing handles, wall paper section needing glue . . . Would we stay there again when passing through the area? Absolutely. The room was definitely good enough. What was outstanding? The delightful couple who ran the place. They are friendly and a pleasure to deal with.

Check in was very easy. The lady was very nice at the front desk and when I had a little trouble with the lock, her husband was able to take care of it immediately. The place was quiet, clean a very comfortable. I got to park my truck right out front. The town was very close, if I had needed it, but, I had everything I needed with me. I love their set up of the yummy coffee, mini fridge, microwave and tv and definitely an awesome air conditioner!!! I stayed for 2 days and nights. I would definitely come back here next visit !!!
