As is the trend around Tahoe, Evo refurbished an old decrepit motel into a modern hotel. Really appreciate this as Tahoe has a shortage of mid-range hotels for those of us that don't want to spend over $400 a night but also don't want to risk getting bed bugs in a dirty motel. The upgrade is generally tasteful and comfortable, although keep in mind they have to work with the existing motel structure, hence very small bathrooms. Appreciated the on-site sauna although some room for improvement here. The on-site restaurant had a limited menu when we were there but the two things we ordered were delicious - look forward to their full menu. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

The sauna's location, in front of reception and next to the car park, is not ideal and doesn't have that sense of peace and relaxation you associate with saunas. It needs hooks for guests to hang their clothes or towels, as in the winter it's quite cold to walk straight from the room outside to the sauna. The cold plunge tub wasn't yet functional when we were there but appeared to be too small for a proper cold plunge. Some of the fixtures in the bathroom (the shower drain and sink?) appear to be original and seem a little aged / worn.

The hotel was clean, everything was new and the furniture was nice and comfortable. What I enjoyed the most was the staff. They were warm, welcoming, accommodating and always answered the phone/my questions. My daughters left items in the room and we were able to get them back with no issue. But the real amazing part is that I left my engagement ring and didn’t realize until I was on the road! I called, they had it and gave me instructions on how it can be sent back to me. They answered every email and phone call I had about it and I am so impressed by that. Oh, even the staff at the restaurant they have was nice. Overall it was an amazing experience!

Maybe the cost could be better.

The beds are super comfortable and the location is great. You can walk to everything easily, whether along the street or down on the lake walkway. It was easy with our dog. The two sitting areas at the front were comfortable and fun since we had a group. Loved being able to go to the bar/restaurant to get a beverage, snack and hang out.

Since the floors are hard (vs. carpet) there is a fair amount of noise if those above you are walking around. Check in and check out were lengthy due to system issues and staff newness. That said, everyone was very nice.

The location was excellent with an onsite bar and restaurant. We had a glitch with the TV and the staff was super accommodating! Very nice and clean. Planning on returning in the fall!

The only downside was that the TVs are listed as Smart TVs but only a few apps available. Like to watch TV before going to bed. If you do end up in a room with the adjoining door, you will be able to hear your neighbor.

It was right by beach in Tahoe City and in centre of town so easy walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants. Free bus from Truckee and part way round lake and to Olympic Village. Also free local car rides, all provided by TART. Comfortable elevated outdoor seating with views of lake.

It was a refurbished motel and soundproofing was not very good.

I really liked this place. Super cute, right on the lake. Friendly staff. I was on a staycation, and this really suited me. The price was MORe than fair too. Lots of nice things to walk to, right across from the beach. More than dog-friendly, dog loving property. Thanks.

The TV had a wifi connection issue, but I don't really use TV in hotels.

*Staff was great! Perfect location in the center of town, right across the street from the beach entrance and remodeled as of Spring 2025. We used the beautiful new patio's every night, "Love the Firepits & Swings". Nice rooms, comfy beds and free coffee in their restaurant.

Super modern updates to an old motel. It was great having the restaurant/bar next door. The two patio s were nice! Enjoyed the back patio . Good w our dog.!

You could really hear the people above walking around as the floors aren’t carpeted.

I have been staying here for the last 20 plus yrs...if I'm not at a friend's house in Truckee or renting a Cabin .It's always a good value $wise,great location,the staff has always been extremely friendly and helpful.Rooms are clean. Hot Tub is nice to have....it's nothing fancy but we don't need a lot of frills after a long day of Skiing etc ...instead of spend the extra $ we save on Dining out,shopping in TC ...Mary-Ann & Danny

No complaints.

Great location in Tahoe City. Across street from beach and 10 minute drive to Olympic Valley. Staff were extraordinarily helpful. Efficient, quiet heater. Needs to work on soundproofing from adjacent rooms.
