Donner Lake Inn has just changed ownership.
We were a bit surprised by this as had booked due to the reviews of the friendliness of the previous owners reviews.
The day of check in,we were send a text message with a code for our room and time of breakfast the next morning.
No human contact at check in whatsoever ever and breakfast the next morning in the upstairs dining room all felt a bit awkward.
The yogurt and peaches were amazing though and I’m sure in time the new owners will get the welcome right.
Room was quite quaint but could do with a small fridge and coffee maker.
