Travel tips
Guests without a car can use the Union & North Main bus stop just 94 meters away or the Red Bluff bus station about 480 meters away to get around town. Those planning day trips should note the motel's distance from regional attractions -- 2.3 miles to the Sacramento River Discovery Center, 30.4 miles to Turtle Bay Exploration Park, and nearly 52 miles to Lassen Volcanic Park -- so plan drive times accordingly. If mobility is a concern, request a ground-floor room in advance, as some reviewers reported difficulty securing one on arrival.
