I considered myself lucky to be able to get a reservation at this motel beings all the other motels were booked. I've read other reviews about the conditions of the rooms, so was wondering if I'd experience the same horror stories. The people working there were very friendly. The rooms are obviously sub-basic, but was clean with fresh paint. I... More

Sad as this used to be a great place but now looking like they are sucking cash and not fixing. 3 years now the pool is filled with trash and totally dry. The jacuzzi is half filled with rotting black water and big biting bugs are swarming. My room was so smelly I had to sleep with the door open.... More

In the middle of the night a vibration noise woke us up, we called the front desk after waiting for the noise to stop, the attendant stated that it 's the dryer, he stopped it but it didn 't help, he later found out that it was a loose water pipe hitting the wall from the vibration, I asked for...

We found the room to be clean - far better than the Motel 6 we had stayed in the previous night. The bed was comfortable - everything was clean and fresh. We stayed two nights while visiting in the area. Cofffee pot, coffee and a microwave in the room. Internet service also. We had breakfast there - very good! Hot... More

Stayed at the Gold Lodge while doing a festival in December. Kind of cute on the outside right? Wrong, Changed the first room, The odor was so bad it actually brought tears to my eyes. Smelled like Cheap carpet deoderizer covering up stinky smelly feet. Had to be shown the special knack of how to work the heating system. Yikes!... More

It's already been said, but the place is a DUMP! We made the mistake of arriving in Sonora late without a reservation during an event weekend. We got the room and immediately went out to eat without checking the room. By the time we got back it was very late and there was no where else to go. If we... More

If this was the last hotel, we would sleep in our car! We arrived late after an event, but our room was so creepy we left and found another hotel in town.Old cast iron heater full of dirt/cobwebs, spiders on wall, peeling beat-up furniture, totally old and creepy! High priced because across from fairgrounds, but absolutely not worth it! Even... More

The lodge was affordable but i was disappointed with the room my husband and i were in. The air conditioner was in like a closet with a fan in front of it and it wasn't cooling that well. The carpet had seen better days and the windows didn't open so you could get fresh air at night. My daughter and... More
