Pros:

The location

Cons:

Pictures of property need to be updated. Place looks run down. Shower drain was backed up. Carpet was dirty. My 1 year old son feet got black right away, regret removing his socks.

The staff was friendly. That's about it.
Cons:

The room just looked ran down, the carpet was dirty inside the room and the hallway. Overall, it just needs an update are someone to clean it better. And all that trash in the back needs to be removed as your looking out the window. That's not how you run a business. The room that we were staying in there was a picture hanging over the bed with a dead cockroach in unacceptable.

Great location in South Lake Tahoe
Pros:

Simple hotel that met expectations. Appreciated the fridge in the room. Location is right next to an awesome pancake house - Heidi’s - perfect since the hotel does not provide breakfast.

Would not stay here again.

Location was the only good thing.

Cons:

Loud, could hear everyone in other rooms. Ceiling was pealing, not enough towels, no closet or anyway to hang clothes, hair in bathroom corner, did not feel safe.

Overall, my stay was disappointing due to the poor condition, lack of cleanliness, and excessive noise throughout the pr
Pros:

Unfortunately, there wasn’t anything in particular that I liked about the property

Cons:

I was disappointed with the overall condition of the property. It appeared run-down and poorly maintained, and several areas were dirty. The environment was also very noisy, with frequent yelling, children running around, and dogs barking. Overall, the property did not feel clean, quiet, or well maintained.

Look for a better accommodation if you can afford one.
Pros:

It’s close to the beach, but we didn’t spend our time there since the beach wasn’t clean.

Cons:

The property was shabby. The sink faucet wasn’t working, so we need to use the shower when we brushed our teeth. The floor carpet was wet and kinda sticky maybe because it’s close to the beach. Also, the beds were dusty. But, what’s really disappointing was my husband’s eyeglasses and my shoes were missing when we came back from the beach. We were pretty sure that we left it in our room before heading out.

We didn't stay, we couldn't, unbearable.
Pros:

They canceled my reservation without penalty.

Cons:

The dirty common areas, the sink in our bathroom we couldn't use due it was filled with this black mooky stuff, "no lakeview" as we paid extra for unless you can lean way over in-between the parking lots and the building directly in front of us for a sliver view off in the distance. Miss leading advertisement! The smell in the room was unbearable. Big wet stains on the carpet.
