I have never left a review but this hotel honestly deserves it. We came to this hotel thinking that it would be a disappointment, as we had just left Tahoe and their room which we thought would be great. It was a real disappointment. To our surprise, the room was really big and the facilities were really kept up. The people who manage really have attention to detail which is highly appreciated by me. Their breakfast was very inclusive and thorough, and their attention to detail definitely followed. I cannot recommend this stay highly enough. If you are going to plan to go to Tahoe, I highly recommend staying in this hotel and driving the one hour to Tahoe afterwards. Their employees were incredibly helpful and even fix an issue with the microwave right away. I have not had service like this in a very long time. Could not recommend this place more and commend them for their amazing work. Thank you for our great stay! Even my child whom usually doesn’t like the hotels we stay at and is opinionated about it, said this was “the best hotel ever.”
The view was absolutely amazing — the lake-facing room offered a beautiful sunrise each morning.
The room was very clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Overall, a wonderful stay!
This is a nice option in an otherwise remote area. The breakfast station was nice, the lake view was great and the room was spacious and clean. Some of the decor/ amenities in the room were a bit out of date, like not having a USB port in any of the lamps or as an add-on for easy electronic charging. But, there's a gas station next door where I was able to go pick up a cube.

The room and hotel were pretty standard. There was a lot of confusion on check in because I had multiple rooms. It all worked out. It was a convenient location.
All rooms face lake, but being on the bottom floor all you see is parking lot. The rooms are dated and worn, but were clean. Not a busy area with not much around, so it was pretty low key.

This property was fine but our bathroom was old, toilet looked to need a deep clean, towels were worn out, windows dirty.
It was a good time but the bathroom fan didn’t work properly and the shampoo and conditioner was not in a place that you could use it in the shower and the lotion was so hard to get out of the tiny little bottle and not enough to use on the entire body none of them enough for 1 person and their were 2 of us! Not worth the price of the room, View was good looking at the Lake staff was accommodating, room was clean,Air conditioner worked.
Room was clean and quiet. Beds were comfortable. The shower/toilet really needs to be updated. The shower is so old and there is zero water pressure and toilets are very old and stained. The rates are high for this area so it'd be nice to have some water pressure and clean toilets. Besides that, it's a great location and we would stay here again.
The woman that checked us in was very nice however the quality of hotel and room was less than expected. The minute we walked in something was off, it was bad enough to bring in blankets and towels from our car to cover the sheets with. As we started to get ready to sleep, there was 2 spiders crawling on the sheets, after that we decided to check out early and make the drive home through the night.
Very dusty. Very old and in need of upkeep. Elevator sounds like it can break at any time. Lobby doors needed cleaned.
Breakfast offered, but Microwaved.
Not at all worth the 240+ dollars.
