Bathroom floor was dirty. Toilet rocked, toilet seat was broken and it ran constantly. The repairs should have been made BEFORE the room was even rented.

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

Trailside Inn is right on our way to our destination. It is an average motel with the usual conveniences: microwave, fridge, TV. There was always adequate hot water and I had a good soak in the bathtub. It was nice.

Trailside Inn is conveniently located in Alturas, CA. It is dog-friendly, reliably heated and cooled, and the room was equipped with a refrigerator and microwave and a TV with cable. It is pretty standard for an American motel in a small town. We opted to have breakfast at the Wagon Wheel Restaurant, and that was terrific. Parking is convenient. Alturas is a quiet place with wildlife sometimes walking through town. We enjoyed our stay.

It’s a really nice place to stay, they had a variety of options for the breakfast and it was the best breakfast I’ve ever had at any hotels I’ve stayed at. I would definitely go back again when I go out that way. Very friendly staff easy check in and out. Nice comfortable beds.

Adequate for a town with limited choices and a long ways from options. I would stay there again since there are limited alternatives. Worse breakfast I ever saw in a hotel with complimentary breakfast – biscuits and gravy and yogurt.
