The room and staff were very nice, quiet sleep on a comfortable bed and nice amenities. However, I had no internet for 5 days. It was knocked out by a light rainstorm and they couldn't get it fixed. I was there on business, so that was highly inconvenient. But if you are there on vacation, it's very convenient to downtown, nice refurbished property, every room is slightly different, cozy and aesthically pleasing.

The cottage at Sierra Mountain Inn was great for us. We were traveling with our retriever, and the surrounding garden provided a peaceful area to walk her. There were also great dog walking options nearby. It was also convenient to nearby dining options on Main Street, the tables in the garden allowed us to have takeout there.

This was a lovely property in the cutest town. Everyone working there was helpful and kind. The inn is very cute. The room we had was clean, spacious, and nice. They were communicative from beginning through the stay to the end. If I had to choose anything to improve, it would be the mattress (time for a new one), and the initial cleanliness of the shower. Not exactly sure what happened there, but when we asked for room cleaning service, and we returned, the shower was exceptionally clean. We would not hesitate to stay there again if we were in the area!
