Stevenson motel

Savings compared to other the motels in area was good. Places for food & gas were close by. Service was good- just a older motel that hasn’t been updated in a long time.

Reasonable Pricing and Great Location

I enjoy the reasonable pricing, quietness, great location and friendly customer service. The hotel is a throw-back, it's older, an original. I like that it still has the old Tahoe vibe and is always clean. I stay here frequently and it's always a clean bed to sleep in, and easy walk to the beach, easy parking and my Granddaughter loves Char Pit is next door, great burgers. Our routine is long beach day, burgers at Char Pit and then off to bed. Love it!

I’m hiking Tahoe Rim Trail and use this as a resupply stop. It’s well positioned for either Blockaway Summit or Mount Rose. The people are very friendly and kind storing my material for my pick up. Room is large. Nice bathroom has a pool and chairs.

The rooms itself weren’t great. Even though we were told they have been renovated recently, it still seems pretty old, and some rooms I’d say are dirtier than the others. However, the services were fine, I asked if we can get a different room than the one assigned to us because we weren’t satisfied with it, and they did give us a better room. They even offered to give us a free night stay and give us a full refund because we weren’t satisfied with the first room, but it wasn’t necessary. I’d say the best feature is that it’s a quarter mile away from the beach, and it’s just easy for us to walk around the area without any worries. This place is also probably the most affordable deal you can get, so if you’re okay with not being in a fancy hotel and to save hundreds of dollars, this place might be for you.

The best thing about this property is that you can walk to the beach and around the town area. Property wise-bed was ok, tv good, carpet was dirty, bathroom ok. Wallpaper and walls need attention. No air conditioning but not need. My husband and I like to stay in retro type older motels -this one is just old.

Great little overnight stay

Fun, not fancy but Throwback vintage motel, Super quaint, central to everything in kings beach , very walkable, free parking , super close walk to water . Park at your door is so easy and nice to get car packed/unpacked. Definitely could be refreshed but it was fine for us. Beds could be updated too but we slept. No AC , not biggie for us with the provided fan and pleasant temps

A wonderfully quaint and quirky place!

This was our first time staying at this quaint little hotel. The staff was amazing, and very quick to respond to our needs. Like most hotels in the area, it was an older building, but that's what gives it charm and a unique experience. There was a full kitchen and a separate bedroom. Even though the water temperature had some difficulty staying in one place, the manager was on top of getting things in working order. If you have ever lived in an house that is over 40 years old, you know there are quirks that may need attention. The best part was knowing that the staff understood this, and were more than happy to tend to our needs. You just need to ask, so don't be shy when something isn't working right or needs to be taken care of. The staff know things are older and need more TLC. Overall, we had a great stay, and will definitely stay here again!!
