Older hotel in need of a remodel but great location. The view of the lake from the room was awesome. The bed was comfortable. The room a was clean and the bathroom worked. I could walk to fun excellent restaurants and the town was nice and relaxing. It was a good value for the price and I will come stay here again.

Eh…
The room was clean however the bed was flat and stale same with the bedding and pillows. The room does not have air conditioning nor a fan. If you leave the window open you will hear the traffic. Great location and clean room though. If they would just updated the bed and bedding.

The location is perfect for walking to shops and restaurants in Tahoe City. The property itself is in need of an uplift and some renovation.

This place is a low end but expensive motel not worthy of even an overnight stay. There is one broken elevators for staff and guests for several floors and you can hear a very loud boiler room noise right under your bed. It was impossible to get any sleep. No breakfast is included in the price and you need to wal to a restaurant to get breakfast for $20 per person. Add this to your cost. Shower shoots had of its water to the ceiling in a tight shower space.

The property itself is great and I really want to give it a good review, however, the night I stayed, there was road work just outside the hotel all night until after midnight. The frontdesk was nice enough to offer me earplugs, but the noise was so loud and consistent that I wasn't able to relax or sleep until it finally quieted down closer to 1am. And I was glad I only had to stay one night on this trip. I'd stay here again for everything else was great, I'd just double check to make sure they aren't doing work outside all night.

This is an honest property for the budget. Room and bathroom are functional and fairly clean. Convenient parking that includes covered area. The greatest asset is the position walking distance to several restaurants, shops and front lake. Friendly personell. To get more stars needs air conditioning and updated heating unit; I didn’t use it but looks old and noisy. Building fixtures are dated.
