It was adequate for what was needed- comfy bed and shower. Could use a renovation- which staff stated was going to happen in 5 months or so. Lake Tahoe is right across the street, also shoutout to the Staff -Chris and Alex who were very nice and helpful for check in and out.

It’s great to still have a comfortable and cozy reasonably priced lodging option at the lake. We’ll return! Our only issue was that we could not get the channel to watch the rest of the Warriors game in the room —we've never had problems watching our Bay Area team/NBA in motels across the country during bballl season.

The hotel is worn out - tatty carpets, mouldly showers, rodent traps in the hallway, broken coffee machine, noisy heater... It's on the street, seemingly designed to catch as much noise as possible. Not worth the price - or any price, really.

OK, this property is in need of some repairs (especially the stairways!), but the rooms were clean & comfortable & even though the desk was only manned gor a limited amount of hours, the staff was very helpful. Dining option accross the street on the lake was lovely.

The rooms are small. Needs a facelift. Several areas were peeling paint, drywall tape, just plain OLD! No room cleaning, minimal staff. Was better pre covid when they offered breakfast also.
