2/10 Poor

Worst hotel in Lake Tahoe
The bathroom floor had water because of the leaking shower and there was missing tiles on the ceiling of the shower. The ceiling in the room damage and the bed was so hard to sleep on. The floors in the room were missing pieces and the lights kept flickering when on. When my husband and I were trying to sleep in people were stomping above us.

Horrible conditions
The fireplace did not work I have kids with me, and we froze all night even after your maintenance personal came in and adjusted it saying give it time it will get warm. The fireplace was not the fireplace that you have in the other rooms. Even if it did work, I could not imagine this tiny little fireplace warming up this whole room. -The TV is 19" while the other rooms have large tv's. It was Incredibly difficult for us to see. We had to cram in one bed just to watch tv. -There was one frying pan that had eggs still stuck to the pan and the pan was warped. I could not make a full breakfast due to the condition of the kitchen. I thought since there was only one pan, I would place the hash browns in the oven, and the oven didn't work. I now have to spend more money taking my family out to eat a full meal. -The towels were dirty, especially the wash rags. Clear dirt visually seen on the wash rags. -There was no laminate flooring. We had worn out carpet that was dirty and smelled. I appreciate your urgent response to this matter. I do not want a partial credit; I expect a full credit.

Good Option for South Tahoe
Great location less than one block from the Heavenly gondola and reasonably clean rooms with no strange smell. Overall, this hotel is a great option for the lower cost hotels in South Tahoe that are frequently terrible. The blinds need maintenance as they do not close properly. Need better instructions on how to use cable TV. Front desk could not figure it out, but the cleaning staff helped me.

It was alright
This place was alright. it was good for an average stay, from being out in the cold all day it was so nice to have the room warm. the shower was a bit of an issue. cold water would run even when u would just use hot water handle but then outta no where hot water would appear. it was clean as much as it could be, no mess and everything was good.

Nasty
Don’t believe the pictures……the room was so dirty we had to clean it. The door had a 2” gap at the bottom that let all the cold air in and to stop it we had to stuff towels under the door

The room was dirty. My shower handle wasn't even on the spigot. Just sitting in the bottom of the shower. It continuously dropped. The front desk just blew me off.
