Newly remodeled, clean no frills hotel. Beautiful view.
Easy access to slopes. Good breakfast spot next door. Nice touch with the free pastries.
Only downside was check in process since it there was no one at the counter. The guy left the key under the door mat.
Two thumbs up! Ill be back next year! Very clean, everything is perfect Room number 9 has a perfect view of the river. My only issue is you can hear the people upstairs.
We stayed at this hotel to do some climbing at nearby Lovers Leap. It was a convenient spot and I was surprised at how quiet it was for being right off the road. Comfy rooms, friendly staff. Would recommend!
Room was super clean with everything looking very remodeled recently. The grounds are beautiful next to the river, particularly during the sunset. We spent a lot of time by the river snacking, and just looking at the scenery. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the place was quite quiet, even though it’s fairly close to the highway.
Great little spot right on Hwy 50. Recently renovated with an incredibly comfy bed and soft sheets. A very convenient place to stop for the night with lovely seating areas by the river. As others have noted, not a lot of food options nearby so plan ahead.
It is listed as being by the river and is sure is right next to the river. beautiful area around the Inn got some nice pictures while there. Quiet quiet quiet away from the mass confusion and hustle & bustle of Lake Tahoe We will stay there again and again
This hotel has a 10/10 location. The river is really nice and they put canopies and chairs by the water. Hotel is fixed up and very clean. I lost my wallet and the hotel staff found many children to help me look. It was in my bag
