A good stay. Typical motel where everything worked. Clean and efficient. The motel is near the main strip for restaurants. However the local Safeway to buy breakfast goods is a couple of miles away - need transport to get there. Motel is also a couple of blocks to beach. However beach here is paying.

Check in is difficult for non-US people without a US SIM on phone as check-in details are by phone just before checking in time. Check-in time at 1600 is late - would be nicer at 1500. We rang in the morning to explain we would not be able to receive text messages details for checking in and would need WiFi to get email. The last was there for us when we arrived so this helped enormously.

Beds were comfortable and the room was bigger than expected. Check-in was super easy. I really liked the neighborhood it was in. There’s lots of motels and you can walk to the beach. The pictures I attached her from the beach that’s just a few minutes walk from the motel. And if you get in the car, there’s plenty of restaurants and heavenly village is really close by. it’s not a super fancy hotel but for the price and a cheap place to stay it was way better than I expected. Will definitely stay again.

Don’t stress out if you complete the pre-check in and continue to get a lot of text messages reminding you to do it. I got so many that I got anxious that I had missed something and wound up calling to try and make sure my reservation was gonna be held. I had a lot of trouble getting people on the phone, although they do warn you that the staff isn’t always present. Eventually, I did get a hold of somebody and they confirmed that I had already completed my check in and nothing else was needed. When I got there, the manager was on site and he was super helpful. The lady that works there got us into our room and gave us some tips and Was absolutely delightful. So just don’t stress if you’ve done the pre-check in and you get a lot of text messages before your stay.

The bed & pillows were very comfortable, the room was clean. I really appreciate that when the remodel was done the floor is a non carpeted surface. The bathroom was clean and nicely remodeled. It was a quiet night's rest and the price was excellent. We had a corner room which was great for quietness but contributed I think to one of the things I didn't like.

Our window faced the windows of some condos or apartments, The bedside lamp was an artsy lamp made to seem like an old-fashioned incandescent light which flickered slightly & one wall was painted a very vibrant pink and purple zigzag pattern both of these could be problematic for a guest with seizure disorder.

Location was great, the room had everything I needed, bed was comfortable, it was quiet at night, parking included, close to a private beach that you get a voucher for $5 vs $30 entry. Walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. Only good things to say and will definitely stay here again!

The only thing I would suggest for the cleaning crew is to mop the floors. They were a little dirty. Otherwise, had a great stay!

This is an updated older motel. This means they got their pick of location! It's nicely far from the main drag [so quiet] but right near Stateline and other things--and near the Lake! Gotta say, the beach nearby is $25, so I didn't go [plenty of free beaches a short drive away]. The room was quiet, clean, and had an updated bathroom and bed. Great value. Regarding lighting, when you turn the light on at the door, the whole room lights up with a central fixture [unlike some other hotels that rely on feeble lamps spaced around the room for that "perpetual twilight" feel where you can't see to read].

It would be really great if the owners negotiated a reduced fee for the beach nearby. That way, we could actually use the beach. It really does little good to have a beach that's close but $25 per person. But again, this problem was easily solved by seeking out one of several free beaches.

The room was super spacious, and very clean, bathroom facilities were well sanitized. There were no carpets in the room, which was a wonderful surprise, since carpets usually tend to be dirty and smelly at old hotels/motels. The room was renovated, and the staff was very helpful. To our request to turn on the heater, they came immediately to help. We had a positive experience there!

Just one thing that I wanted to mention: During the check out we left 15 minutes later. The staff entered the room twice during that time. The first time sharp at 11 am (checkout time), the second time 10 minutes later-to remind us. We just thought that 15-20 minutes can be considered grace period, and that they didn’t have to enter our room at that time.

The location and free parking. It’s an older hotel but appears remodeled. New flooring and fresh paint. The bed was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.

The hand & face towels were worn out. The mini-fridge, microwave & coffee machine need updating with new appliances. The cemet on the staircase steps & landing is crumbling and some sections are missing. This seems like a safety hazard.

King sized med-firm bed was really nice. Heated worked well and fast. Room was a great size especially for people with outdoor gear. Had no issues with parking. Very close to shops and dining, we left our car in the lot when we went to Heavenly Village. Noise was normal for lodging of this kind -- bring earplugs as you'll hear people talking outside and the cars early in the morning. I like this place better than BlackJack.

Great place, but some small things (that had temporary solutions) would be great to improve: -There was an outdoor light that was on at night and shined through the window in our door and lit up our room. Could use a shade for the window? Temporary solution is to bring an eyemask. -Replacing the ceiling light bulb with a softer, warmer light. It's very white and flourescent so we went without it and instead utilized the cute nightstand lamps.

The room is simple, but comfortable. Check in and check out were all contactless, which was just fine with us. Room was really clean. Design and decor seemed more modern than rustic- cabin like many stays in Tahoe.

The stark decor made the room feel a little empty. The exterior stairway had construction cones marking the landing that had concrete crumbling, likely due to the heavy snow over winter.

Very comfortable room and convenient location - we came for skiing at Heavenly & Kirkwood during the holidays and this was perfect. 8-night stay at incomparable value and the staff was welcoming, communicative and accommodated our requests.
