The room was really wonderful, spacious and with lots of character. My only gripe is that you have to check in at the Crystal Bay Club Casino next door which isn’t convenient and detracts from the historic ambiance of the Border House itself…

no way should this room be allowed to be marketed for four adults! There is a futon which is supposed to be the second sleeping area, it was extremely small and so uncomfortable. My mother and I shared that and we’re under 53 and we still are experiencing a backache.. with that said the grounds were beautiful. The staff was nice, but the room was old and not as clean as it should have been.

This place is overpriced, dirty feeling, dark, and staff assistance non existent. No wifi except piggy backing off the casino. The casino is a small and dingy as well. I do not recommend. 40 min from Reno with the fastest way driving back to 80 in Cali - Truckee.
