Parking felt safe but it was a bit cramped and challenging getting out when the parking lot is full. Luckily it centrally located so we did not need to drive a lot.

We have been travelling across the US and have stayed in more than 20 hotels/motels and this place ranks in the top 3, the shower was the best we have had. The bed was really comfortable, the room was immaculate and large. Parking was easy and the lady who check us in was lovely. We would 100% recommend this place and would definitely stay again.

Blackjack Inn

The Blackjack Inn is affordable, clean, comfortable and well run. The staff is always friendly and maintains the site well. The parking spaces are a bit tight but there's always parking for all guest. The staff checks the parking lot periodically to make sure that only guests are parked there. When I'm in South Lake Tahoe, The Blackjack Inn is my 1st choice...and this for 4 years now! :)
