Dirty Room, bad service

Huge safety issue with the door lock missing screws on both sides, broken latch to lock the door and i was given a DIRTY room. I was told by the manager at 4:30p that our room wasn't ready and i could either wait until she got to our room because the cleaners didn't show up, or i could drive around and come back later..well it wasn't ready even after 6pm. When we finally get inside after calling and leaving a message on the hotels doorbell ring camera to get the key because our room wasn't keyless and No One was on site i received a message on how to get the key, and our room hadn't been cleaned at all. Dirty bed covers, All mirrors had fingerprints and the one over the sink had toothpaste splatter, dirty toilet, dirty tub, the shower curtain had a horrible smell, the microwave was dirty and missing a knob, the fridge was dirty on the outside and inside it had some sticky brown stuff, and even the window blinds had stains. When i called the manager she said she had cleaned it herself and she was sorry it wasn't up to my standards. After telling her i had taken pictures of how dirty it was she said she could clean it "again" the next day because she wasn't on site anymore or we could cancel the room and said the door wasn't a safety issues at all...unfortunately i was unable to cancel and i had to clean the room myself(Toilet, tub, restroom floor, microwave and fridge) and used our OWN blankets and sheets to cover all the beds to be able to sleep on.
Toilet had stains and smelled bad and yes I had to clean it myself and it all came off
Dirty window blinds
Found brown sticky substance when I was putting in my coconut water. Yes, I cleaned that also
Dirty microwave and fridge.Yes I also wiped it down with disinfectant wiped I had to purchase and it all wiped off

Great find in Tahoe

Great boutique style hotel in South Lake Tahoe. Second visit to this hotel. Definitely seems nicer than the other non-casino option. Also comes with a beach access pass. Amazingly easy check-in via a text message with a door code. There is a reason this place is rated so much higher than the comparable nearby hotels.

I was so disappointed about the quality of the bed. The bed spring was horrible and you could see the bed was sunken like there was a dent or some sort of empty space in between. It was too late when I saw the bed and I just slept on it. The room has weird smell and I had to open the window for a long time which helped a little. The location was great but I won’t go back there again.

Pushy Cleaners !!!

Nice for the price, didn’t expect cleaning crew to knock on doors at 9:30 to wake guests up when check out is at 11:00 Trying to get people out of the rooms so they can clean and get off of work sooner.

There was confusion over the reservation. We did not get the check in information until about 6:00 PM. Since I had talked to the manager and she had said that we would hear between 3:00 and 4:00 PM, I assumed that we did not have a room. We checked in elsewhere.

Avoid this place if at all possible! Unstaffed hotel and completely unresponsive to calls/email. Even though all requested information was submitted prior to arrival, never received any response or room number/key code by the evening of check-in. Of course no employee was present on site, nor was there any answer or response to repeated calls and emails. Spoke to a guest staying there who told me multiple people had run into the same issue and that the rooms were very dirty. Also, there had been no response to requests to have the rooms cleaned. In the end, 4 hours were wasted attempting to contact someone, and, ultimately, reaching out to customer support with Hotels.com for assistance in resolving the matter, and finding another place to stay for the night.

Great location.

Check in was nice, the manager happened to be there and checked me in. There is a code to get into the room. The room was walking distance to the lake and Golf course as well as restaurants/other. My room had two queen beds but with the positioning of one of the beds, it was difficult to see the television. The shower head was nice, I would stay there again.
