The Hotel Ione - A Hotel With Spirit

Since its original opening in the late 1800s, the Hotel Ione has seen many seasons - fires that ravaged it, loving owners who rebuilt it, and various periods of remodeling and restoration. It has operated under different names over the years: the Union Hotel, the Golden Star, the Stacy Inn, the whimsical Bed Bug Inn, and most recently, the Hotel Ione. Its guests have arrived on a stagecoach, on horseback, and of course, on motorcycles and in automobiles. Through it all, the grand old lady of Ione, California has persevered. Over time, some folks have apparently loved it so much that they've taken up a permanent residence there, for the ghost stories of the Hotel Ione abound. From George, who continues to claim his room long after his death, to a woman named Mary who made her presence known during a seance, the hotel is a very "spirited" place. This book is Milly Jones' delightful account of the years that she and her husband owned the historic hotel and their dealings with guests... both alive and in the spirit world. Along with the supernatural encounters, you'll read about motorcycles in the lobby, a "Hooker's Ball" at the hotel, and many other stories that will keep you turning the pages of this entertaining book. Come check in for a stay at the Hotel Ione - you may not want to leave "
