Very clean and comfortable room, we were ortunate to get a balcony room that we didn't expect. Appreciated the little refrigerator for leftovers from meals, donuts and fresh coffee from the lobby in the morning, nearby shops (nice antique store!) and restaurants within walking distance, the desk clerk was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Interesting, historic downtown, cute little town and location. Very quiet during our three-night stay, including a holiday weekend.

No complaints.

Historic charm. Check out the lobby with clock collection and western Americana antiques. Large quiet room, 2nd floor with balcony overlooking main hwy, toward mountains. King bed very comfy. Front desk staff very pleasant, we arrived very LATE. Room was clean, has a combo heater fan, mini fridge. Well insulated, with door and window closed, could not hear highway noise right below. Breakfast was coffee and donuts. Yum. Perfect for stopover from Oregon to the Eastern Sierra.

It was a very nice place in a lovely 'countryside' area, located just 30mins from South Lake Tahoe. Very friendly staff, room was very nice and clean, with comfortable large bed. Plenty of restaurants around, though still gave us a proper 'village vibe'. This place was on located on the main road of the Gardnerville town, but we didn't hear anything from the streets at night. We visited the Lake Tahoe after spending a night in Gardnerville, it was very easily reachable, price-value of this place was really great. We appreciated the large mirror in the room, where we both fit in the morning and plenty of space in the room.

The air-conditioning was very loud, and so when we turned it on at night, we didn't have the easiest sleep. :(

Next to restaurants, site-seeing, park, casino, bars. Easy to locate as directly on the Highway. Lighted Parking in rear. Super nice and informative staff. Good donuts and coffee for breakfast. A/C worked fine. Room was average.

We booked and it said “Mountain View”. It had a nice view of a mountain, but it was too noisy. Bar nearby played until 10:15pm. We here exhausted but couldn’t sleep well as we fronted/directly above, highway traffic with trucks and cars all during the night.

Helpful and attentive staff, central location with lots of dining nearby, comfy beds/pillows, and the morning coffee, cocoa, and donuts were a bonus. They made good coffee too, perk ya right up!

The only negative we encountered was that the floors could have been a bit cleaner. but thats really it. As another reviewer mentioned, there is a gap under the door in the accessible room. We asked for a couple of old towels, one for covering the gap and one for our wet feet (snow) so we didn't mess up the nice bath towels. They left a note in the room asking people to be mindful and request old towels for things beyond drying off a clean body; coming from a hotel background, we were happy to oblige.

Big and clean room. Complimentary donuts and coffee on the lobby. Friendly staff. We recommend it.

They used too much cleaning chemicals that the room was really filled with Strong odor. After airing it out for an hour smell gone. Room was loud because it was looking at the road but we are heavy sleepers so it did not affect us a lot but it needs to be noted.

It was great. We love having access to coffee and cream in the morning.

There’s not much I didn’t like. Our room was off the front street - because there’s a bar across the street, it got a little loud around 1 am. Next time I will request a room off the back lot. Everything else was fine.

Staff was super friendly We loved how pet friendly they were and it was also a little of a detractors. The floors have laminate throughout- great for our pet and also noisy upstairs when people walked or paced back and forth. These days with the ability to stay with a pet I can overlook this as it generally didn't last very long each night

The noisy floors mentioned above

Super friendly and helpful manager. Gave us directions and recommendations. Very nice parlor in the lobby with tables and chairs and couches where you could hang out. Great coffee and fresh donuts in the mornings. Room was large, had coffee maker and mini-fridge. Tables and chairs out front so you could sit outside. Dog friendly, quite a few guests had dogs.

room was nicely renovated and clean, the owners and management clearly are putting time into the property and it shows. good location for exploring Lake Tahoe area but also places further East with just about everywhere less than 1 hour away. the management/front desk team was super kind and the property owner should be proud to have an awesome team looking out for their guests. would come back in a heartbeat if I’m back in the area again.

continental breakfast was a bit on the lighter side but still a nice touch to have (hard boiled eggs, mini muffins, cereal, etc.). there is a bakery next door if that doesn’t fit your fancy.
