Black Bart Inn

The Sierra Inn is in a perfect location for using as a hub to travel around to all the neighboring towns like Sutter Creek, Columbia, Angels Camp, and Jackson. Our room was comfortable, clean, and tastefully decorated. It looks just as the photo shows on their site. We stayed on a Friday night and comparing the price to other hotels and motels in the area, it was extremely reasonable. In addition to its excellent location, being reasonably priced, and having a clean comfortable room, it’s walking distance to numerous restaurants and bars. We walked to the Patio Drive In for breakfast, El Mezcal Grill for dinner (the shrimp quesadilla was delicious), and Gooney’s Bar and Grill for after dinner drinks. We would definitely stay at this hotel/motel again.

I have visited this location throughtout the years always promising new ownership and renovating of rooms and of course they always miss the mark. So i hear they have once again renovated the rooms and had different owners whom lived on the property and ran the office. I thought okay ill give benefit of the doubt. So upon arriving the exterior still looks like garbage. We went to office and shocker no one was able to be found. Called no answer. Thinking these new owners r so unprofessional. Finally what seemed like forever here come Lorette from who knows where. And i thought it was under new ownership and different staff this is the same gross washed up tweeker thats been there for years. She appologized said she was attending laundry but didnt come from laundry room. She also informed me that the new owners were away for the weekend and left her incharge....what a joke. So i told her that id be staying for sure the whole weekend and maybe into the following week. Skeptical of everything cause it all seemed to be bs. I requested to see the room that i would be renting and wow did it seem to be a problem to show me the room first like i was making an incovience for her. I mean i am paying out of my pocket. So needless to stay the rude attitude i recieved i took my money and went to jackson may have payed alot more but sure didnt have to deal with her and her mood swings. After all these year sometimes you nees to know when to just let it go. Or ownwers need to realize that shes more of the problem then the solution. Thats even if there is new owners or even renovated room as i never got to actually see.
