Checking in is a little bit quirky, but not a problem. Got checked in real quick. Room was very clean and comfortable. Any negative posts before must of just had a bad day. The property is quiet, plenty of parking, and the staff was friendly. There are dining options close by and a 7-Eleven just up the street. This is our new go to place when we come to Tahoe. The room met all the basic needs with a bed, tv, bathroom, microwave, refrigerator.

Takes a bit for the hot water to get going, but that is nothing big. Really enjoyed the stay.

Location, the layout of the room - kitchenette , dog friendly , clean and comfy beds

So sad that the owner doesn't want to do the small details that make the stay so tons better . It was a freezing cold In the room when we arrived late evening at 30 ° F . No hooks for the towels . Noticed that the other room had a little table and chairs in the kitchen. Our kitchenette didn't have a table and 2 chairs. And there was a big hole in the wall , was probably supposed to be the kitchen fan . The location is amazing walking distance to 2 great restaurants. I love it when a hotel room has the kitchenette. But it was so poor that could have bern easy fixed by some paint and an efficient area for the stove and microwave . Also, it was missing 4 of each thing. A Plus for the coffeemaker

The location was great. You are near many places to purchase anything you want/need. Short drive to emerald bay and Baldwin beach. A favorite of ours is sugar pine. We came at a great time since there were bears roaming the area.

We stayed in room 108. The room was penetrated with cigarette smoke smell. That was not cool at all. Even the towels smelled. We stayed 2 nights. By the time we left our bags and clothes smelled like cigarettes. For the price the rooms are very bare. You only get a tv. Nothing else. Just two pillows and one blanket. Nothing extra.

The property was well maintained and the room was clean

The room and bathroom was very small. I am a smaller person and I could barely turn around the in the shower without hitting the walls. The bed was extremely uncomfortable
