I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is fantastic—right in the heart of South Lake Tahoe, making it super convenient to access the nearby casinos and restaurants. However, I encountered several issues during my stay, including a broken toilet seat in my room that maintenance couldn't fix and service struggles with communication. Overall, while the proximity to attractions is a major plus, the hotel could really use improvements in maintenance and service.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were supposed to come with a kitchenette, which was nice, but I unfortunately dealt with a broken toilet seat that was only attached on one side. Maintenance wasn't able to resolve the issue during my stay.

Service

5.0

The service left a lot to be desired. I was promised an elevated stool for the toilet, but it never arrived, and late at night, I was told they didn’t have any available. However, the valet staff was genuinely trying to bring our car up as quickly as possible.

Location

This hotel is ideally located right in the middle of everything in South Lake Tahoe. It's super close to casinos and restaurants, which is a huge time-saver if you've got to get your family ready to go skiing early in the morning.

The dining options were quite limited, and the breakfast quality didn't impress me at all. The scrambled eggs tasted powdered and the bacon was really not great, which was disappointing given how much I was looking forward to a good breakfast each morning.

Facilities were alright overall, but nothing stood out as being remarkable. The ambiance felt a bit dated, and improvements in amenities would be beneficial.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is fantastic, right near the beach and many great eateries, plus the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired, as some staff were quite rude and it felt like the hotel was stuck in the past without any renovations for quite some time. If they could improve customer service, it would definitely enhance the overall experience.

The hotel has a great location at the heart of South Lake Tahoe, making it super convenient with plenty of nearby shops and restaurants. The rooms were somewhat dirty with dust bunnies everywhere, and there were a lot of kids around due to a soccer competition, which made it a bit noisy. The staff was friendly, except for a rude check-in experience. All things considered, I think the hotel could use some improvements, especially given the price.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it has a fantastic location that's super convenient and offers easy access to shops and restaurants, I was quite disappointed with the overall experience. The rooms didn’t match the online pictures, feeling outdated and a bit dirty. To top it off, the service was terrible, with staff that seemed uninterested in helping. There were some bright spots though, like the valets who were really nice, but unfortunately, they weren’t enough to redeem my stay.

The rooms were quite spacious, which I appreciated, but they really felt outdated and had a bit of a strange smell. The service was friendly overall, but there were a few hiccups.

5.8/10

Overall, the hotel has a great location right next to the Heavenly Gondola and plenty of restaurants, making it super convenient for exploring the area. While the rooms were a bit dark and outdated, the service I received was quite poor, especially given the circumstances surrounding my son's wedding. The dining experience had its ups and downs—certainly liked the service style, but the food quality could improve. On the whole, it's a mixed bag with some highlights and a few letdowns.
