“The Golden Chain Motel in Grass Valley presents a stark choice. What I glean from the reviews suggests a very basic stay; stories abound of rooms where the essentials falter - air conditioning, television, even a functional shower, which is a pity, because the idea of a place to cool down and recharge after prospecting in the surrounding hills is genuinely appealing.”
