Good place to stay on a budget
The place was clean enough, good parking, and warm. Very close to Heavenly resort.

Perfectly located motel for the value-conscious!
Great simple motel with great location near Heavenly Ski Resort and Stateline. Warm room, comfortable bed and good water pressure for the shower. Ample parking. This is a great value motel for those that just want the basics done right!
George, 1-night trip

Ski Vacay
Good Value, Clean Rooms. Hotel is dated but works fine for us as we’re there to ski and are only at the room to sleep. Owners are very kind.
Ian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Coziest Spot in South Lake Tahoe
The bed was incredibly comfortable, the property beautiful, the room cozy, the TV big, the shower nice, the vibe immaculate.
Jeremy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice hidden gem
Staff is extremely friendly. The whole facility was perfect for our needs. You can tell they have put a lot of work into the facility. We just needed a quick stay for the reggae festival and weren’t looking for anything exuberant, but after staying here, we would come back for a multi-day vacation. Online check-in was very convenient and easy. Free coffee in the morning! We’ll be back

Tahoe ski trip
A very nice older motel that has been renovated and kept up. Clean room and very nice clean beds in good condition. Front clerk was very nice and hospitable. Plenty of parking in a nice neighborhood and convenient to various restaurant's locations.
Olmedo, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

In general is a great place to stay, it's in a principal avenue in South Lake Tahoe and it is so close for restaurantes, pharmacies and you can move around the city pretty easily

Everything was great, clean, warm, and my family was happy to be there, thank you
Abdul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good motel quality (def not a hotel)
For room quality, there is a scale for motels and a different scale for hotels. On the motel scale, this is the top end - clean, basic, convenient. Better than most motels because it was easy and clean but the price was def in the hotel range for this particular weekend. On the hotel scale, this would have lost major points for furniture, decor, ambiance. The top sheet/blanket was dusty, the bathroom was FREEZING cold, the room was dark (there were only two light and even with those on, it felt dark in the room)

Clean and amazing service
We had left another hotel due to being dirty. The office manager was so kind and understanding, upgraded us from queen to king. Just such great hospitality, and service. Will definitely come again.

Location is good, nearby Safeway and Whole Foods, where you can walk to beach and port. Staffs are kind and friendly. Room is neat and comfortable, good for the price.

Dana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good price, but questionable experience
Pretty run down rooms (no electric outlets covers and lots of electric splitters thrown on the ground for example), very tight shower stall, creaky doors. Beds were comfortable however. Also the blinds were good and kept the light out. Bottom of stairs had slippery ice which was dangerous. The parking lot is very tight. And there were no chairs surrounding a fire pit on artificial turf, like in the photos. Finally, this whole property is managed remotely through texting— checkin and check out are all by texting. No one at the front desk over night.
Nitzan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Really great, friendly service. The room was clean, but in definite need of updating bathroom. Walls are thin and you can hear conversations of neighbors as well as every time they flush a toilet or use the shower. Still, since I wasn’t in Tahoe to stay in the room, I’d come here again since service was friendly, beds were comfortable and price was right.

Great location. Walking distance to a public beach. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Cheryl at the front desk was so delightful and very helpful. She knew the area well and gave us suggestions on where to go. We would definately stay again the next time we are in Lake Tahoe.
