Property appears to be in poor overall condition. No air conditioning so our room was hot until about 3am. Did have all the basics....towels, soap, shampoo, etc. Good location. Id probably stay again but normally all im looking for is a place to lay my head and get a shower.
Room was clean and other than not having air-conditioning it was comfortable

The room was standard, we got in late and left early so it met our needs for a place to sleep. We originally came up for a concert in South Shore and by the time I booked the hotel South Shore was either sold out or way too pricey. I will say the drive from South Shore back here at midnight was SKETCHY so if you plan the same thing try to avoid it. Tahoe City itself was so cute, lake access, shops, food, all great. The staff though not super friendly did allow us to check in a little early and were fully accomodating. Overall this was a good experience and would stay here again if i was staying on the North Shore.
Best kept secret place to stay (hiding in plain view in the heart of Tahoe City). I will definitely stay here again.
They could update the mattress in the room I was staying in because the edges of it were sinking in when I sat on it, but the sleeping part of the best was fine and I slept well.
The location was great.
My complaint would be the bed. They were very uncomfortable. You could feel the mattress coils. I know the location is prime but I wouldn’t stay here again.
The property is in very bad condition!!!
The stairs are crumbling apart and you can see the rebar. They have a sign saying not to use the stairs due to be under construction, but they are not remodeling anything… very unsafe place to stay! They tell you to use the elevator, but wow…very bad condition. There are bad stains on the carpet and wall paper peeling. The curtains are so warn, you can see light through the main curtain. The shower door cannot close tightly while you shower. The only good thing about this place is you can see the fireworks on 4th of July and not have to deal with traffic.
Property looks very shabby and room are extremely small (master bedroom bathroom)
Bathroom is also extremely small
Front desk person is kind of rude
They told ya there will be fan in the room but there is no ac and no fan
Would get much better property with given price for room
Would not recommend at all
