I had a delightful stay at this hotel! It's super close to everything, which was so convenient. The rooms were clean and comfy, and the queen bed was just perfect. The service was top-notch, but I wished the housekeeping was a bit more attentive. The location was spot on, near all the stores and restaurants you could need. The dining, though included, was just average, I must say. The facilities were great, and I enjoyed every moment by the pool.

The hotel is a gem hidden in the heart of South Lake Tahoe, just a stone's throw away from vibrant shops and restaurants. Enjoy clean and comfy rooms, with a friendly staff ready to make your stay memorable. However, the absence of certain dining options may leave you wanting more. The overall value for money is great, yet some extras come at an additional cost.

I loved this hotel! The rooms were spacious and well-equipped with a fridge and microwave, plus bunk beds for the kids at no extra charge. The bathroom facilities were top-notch, making our stay very comfortable. The location was perfect, right in the center of downtown and super close to the gondola at Heavenly. The dining options, including home-grown products, were a delightful surprise. However, the only downside was the lack of included dining options.
