This home was very close to the downtown area (3 blocks), which allowed my wife and dog to easily walk over when they wanted. The heater works so well we had to take off blankets and turn the temperature way down at night. The kitchen is adequately stocked and some previous tenants left some spices. The check-in and checkout was easy and the condo was modern and clean. We'd stay here again!

The home had everything my boyfriend and I needed for our three night stay. It was walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops in Truckee and about 20 minutes to Palisades where we loved the skiing. The place was cozy and warm and great communication with the property managers.

Cannot oversell how great the location was... some places "in Truckee" are not really walkable, or easily walkable. This was great to just pop over to a meal or shop. The place was clean and quite a comfortable bed... at least the one we slept in!
