Had a very comfortable and stress free stay during a busy week in South Lake Tahoe. The gentleman at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming, and let me keep my car parked there past my check out time, when parking around Stateline was at a premium. Appreciate the location, cleanliness and quiet setting, would definitely stay again.

This was or rather is a great place for a one night stay. The rooms or the hotel seemed to be rather antiquated. There’s no charging area for your phone, so make sure that you bring your phone cord and the box to go into the outlet and the room is also equipped with old-fashioned AC box units. Check-in is at three or four and there’s no one at the front desk to greet you. You have to call a phone number to get service overall was a decent experience close to all amenities outside the hotel the casinos food dining shopping. Again, I would recommend this for a one night day definitely.
