My sister and I stayed here on our way up to Glen Arbor. I must say that we're not huge fans of motels at all, so we were a little nervous. The reviews were great though so we gave it a shot and were not disappointed! Great location, friendly staff, and very clean room with a micro and refrigerator -who... More

Stayed here in November 2012, VERY pleased. Rooms were clean, friendly staff, and great prices. Just stayed there April 5-7, again very pleased. If you are looking for a CLEAN room this is the place. We'll be back in the fall. Donna

In search of a place to stay I pulled over because the sign out front said 'Clean, Cleaner, Cleanest' and the sign didn't lie. Clean room, comfortable, good wi-fi and cable, convenient to downtown, safe, and super friendly service. I like that the windows open. Great price, trustworthy, safe, friendly.

I had a great experience at Sierra Motel. The staff was nice, the room I stayed in was very clean, and it was only a few minutes away from downtown. I definitely recommend it to anybody looking for an affordable, clean and trustworthy motel!

If you're looking for a good night's sleep in an EXTRAORDINARILY clean room at a very affordable rate, the Sierra Motel is an excellent choice. The Sierra is a typical older Michigan motel - wreaths of artificial flowers on the walls, knotty pine ceilings, rubber backed drapes, functional chairs, a desk, and small rooms. (If you're over 6'2" tall, you... More

We selected this little motel based on reviews. We were not that impressed. It was clean, but that was about it. I went to the office about 7:30 pm to ask for another pillow (only two flat ones were provided). I had to ring the bell and wait about 10 minutes (I could hear the TV in the attached living... More

if you're a road warrior you have to suffer the indifferent front desk slug at the chain hotels. not so at the sierra. connie and her family look after your needs and comfort. the place is spotless inside and out, good wifi and amenities. cozy would be the word. thanks connie, we'll be back.

I cannot wait for my next stay at Sierra. I looked at 7 places and what immediately impressed me was the friendly smiles from owner Connie and her son Hugo. My mouth just dropped open when I opened the door of my room as it was so clean I was afraid to step in :-) I liked that it is... More

Other nights restful sleep.

Family-owned motel knows the meaning of old-fashioned customer service. Rooms were super clean and spacious - a good value for the area. The owner Connie went out of here way to accomodate guests staying there for 2 nights while participating in the week long League of Michigan Bicyclists Shorelne Bike tour including free use of the laundry facilities.
