This was our second time in tahoe but our first time staying on this side. Found this hotel which was a great deal, it's right near the marina, lake, and other beaches nearby. Variety of food spots and store to shop. Nearby rentals for the water activities. Appreciate the convenience of the location and the staff!

Hotel is not maintained very well, there was no WiFI for the entire stay, so no TV. It looked like other guests had A/C units that did not work on this extremely hot weekend. For the money they charge, the WiFi should work!
