Motel Trinity

I’m not sure what I expected but Motel Trinity was a pleasant surprise. Yes, it’s dated but it’s also super cozy. The room had a microwave, coffee maker, and a fridge. The bed was comfy, and the staff (owner?) didn’t mad dog us when we woke her up to check in at 2am. She didn’t even screw us on the price and I think $ 60 is a great deal for a motel in BFE at 0 dark thirty when your ride into town is a Tow truck…(awesome review on Alps to be posted shortly!).
Moral of the story: You get what you pay for and this is on the nicer end for a $ 60 room.
OH! Go to Suzie’s Bakery if you stay here-it’s right next door and sooooo good.

A perfect place to rest your head! Not fancy but clean and comfortable. Our bed was great. Appreciate the owners allowing us to leave our vehicle parked while we fished all day. Great location in town. Walking distance to food & drink. We will return on the next fishing trip.

Disregard the bad reviews of this place… some people just don’t know a great deal when they see one. Obviously this place isn’t a 5 star hotel… it’s a motel. Clean towels, hot shower, clean and comfy bed, and for $ 60! You can’t complain about that. This place was perfect for my husband and I who were just passing through on Labor Day weekend. The staff is friendly and the location is convenient. We would stay here again for sure.

This place is surprisingly comfortable and very welcoming. No it’s not fancy, but go in with reasonable expectations and they will be met.
We booked a room last minute on a Saturday night and everyone we dealt with was very friendly and helpful. We got a basic room for $ 60 that had a large and very comfortable bed, mini fridge, microwave, TV and small desk. The bathroom was small but had nice tile floors and a decent shower. They don’t provide shampoo, just bar soap, so bring your own. They also offer «spa» rooms with jacuzzi tubs. Only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is the lack of Internet. We couldn’t connect to their wi-​fi at all.
Overall this is a great place considering the price and convenience. Unfortunately we didn’t get to try the bakery next door since it’s closed on Sundays, but we will definitely be back.

They might have some nice rooms but the one I got was absolutely terrible. Smelled bad, nasty old covers on bed, furniture falling apart. Judging by the room I stayed in this place should be condemned by the health department and the building department.
Just nasty.

The Motel Trinity is what it is: a resurrected strip motel of the 50s/​60s that offers clean rooms, comfortable beds, working AC, morning coffee and free wi-​fi. I spend a lot of time taking Adventuring Touring trips on my motorcycle spending nights in towns well off the beaten path where chain motels are as rare as hen’s teeth and the Trinity deserves a ⁴⁄₅ star rating in this classification. In fact, there are many a town where I’ve stayed in a major chain motel that I would have loved to known of a place like the Trinity Motel so I could have saved money rather than pay for an overpriced room.

If you’re looking for a low-​cost hotel in Weaverville, this is a reasonable place and the owners are very nice. However, the rooms are a dive so make sure your expectations are set correctly.
The rooms feature a bed, a TV, micro, mini-​fridge, coffee maker, and free Wi-​Fi.
Now, the bed is comfortable but the sheets are not so clean. The TV is a small (17″?) CRT TV that perches on the fridge. The antique mini-​fridge I had must have died the night I slept there because in the morning, my beers felt like they’d just endured an 8 hour hot-​yoga class. The coffee maker is a whopping 12-​cup gizmo but they only provide a single-​cup serving packet (fortunately I had a pound of Peet’s in the car and was able to fully replenish my thermos before fishing).
The Wi-​Fi requires a 16-​character login name and 16-​character password, both aLpha*nUmEr1c derived from a random-​number-​generator and printed somewhat illegibly on the room receipt. Each session requires re-​entering all of the codes, which may be OK for a laptop session but is entirely inconvenient to re-​enter every time a smartphone goes to sleep.
The room heater doesn’t have a temperature setting so if you turn it to high and fall asleep, you will awake in a sauna. Fortunately the bathroom will offer respite from the heat with its frigid tile floor and questionable insulation from the outside. Putting a towel on the floor alleviates the problem. The shower works great but bring your own shampoo, they only provide a mini-​bar of soap.
If this sounds negative, it’s not. You just have to walk in with the right expectations. It’s not the 4 Seasons (heck, it’s not even Motel 8). If you’re looking for more luxurious accommodations, there are nicer hotels in town.

This is one of my favorite unexpected stays. While on our road trip heading north, we had car trouble and had to stay overnight in the town of Weaverville, which we had not planned on. We settled for this tiny place, not expecting much but a low price.
While entering our room, it was quite dark and had a log cabin feel to it. I laid down on a bed and that was it! I never wanted to get up! It was the most comfortable bed I had slept on in a long time. Way more comfy than beds I’ve slept on in high class hotels! The couple who owned the place were very friendly and accommodating.
Right next door is a great bakery, which I reviewed as well. Susie’s Bakery had great apple fritters! We woke up at 5am one morning just to try the fresh donuts that were recommended by owner of the motel.
The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because the bathroom was quite small and had a very tiny shower with no tub. However they do have some newer rooms with large jacuzzi tubs.
If I’m ever in Weaverville, I will stay again just to sleep in that bed and get yummy donuts in the morning!

Okay, maybe there are other rooms in this hotel and that look like a log cabin because this place does not look like one at all. Yes, the lady at the desk (I think the owner) is very nice and sweet but even for a cheap motel in a small town, I’ve been to many better ones.
We get our share of cheap motels in the CA country and mountain side, as we attend mountain bike races and do a lot of hiking, thus I feel fair saying that Motel Trinity is not so good. The room has a strong musty smell; the sheets are my biggest complaint because they are old, have holes, are so worn out that are transparent, and are stained. It just looks like they don’t wash them with good soap or they are so old and stained… But no, I know you can get sheets to return to their white after a good wash, so I’ll stop giving them the benefit of the doubt. We even asked for a fresh set and they were the same. We also found hair on both sets, and a bloody stain on the pillow case and near the feet.
The shower curtain is dirty, the plastic non-​slip mat to put in the tub is literally disgusting — what is it for? It’s dirty with black and brown dirt stains… Please just toss it… why is it there in those conditions?!
I gave it two stars versus one just because they were nice, th large tv works, as well as all the lights and the door locks.
Anyway, I wish we stayed somewhere else. Yuk.
