Pros:

I liked the location. The bed was very comfortable. The room was overall well put together. We loved the deck.

Cons:

The shower head did leak sideways outside the shower onto the floor if it wasnt positioned correctly and the door condensation leaked onto the floor so the bathroom floor was pretty soaked after our showers.

Geweldige plek bij Lake Tahoe
Pros:

Ontzettend leuke plek om tot rust te komen. We kregen een upgrade naar kamer met balkon. Er zit een leuk ontbijtplekje in de lobby van het hotel (OK prijs voor die plek). Op het terrein is een brouwerij, kan je lekker eten (verse broodjes en fingerfood) en de middag/avond is er (live) muziek. De kamer zelf was prima qua formaat, badkamer leek vrij recent opgeknapt en heerlijk bed. Het is ongeveer 10 minuutjes lopen naar het meer.

Cons:

Onze kamer was direct bij de muziek en dit gaat door tot +/- 22:00 uur, dus gezinnen met kleine kinderen kunnen beter aan de andere kant van het terrein verblijven.

The visit wasn’t the best like I’ve had in the past at Basecamp.
Pros:

The location, how nice the staff was & the hotel itself was cute

Cons:

Our bed had random hair in the sheets and pillows, the carpet was not cleaned and also the bed we stayed in was not comfortable like the other ones we’ve stayed in at Basecamp. I have stayed here a few times with no complaints, however this last visit wasn’t like my previous ones.

Staid here multiple times!
Pros:

Love the hot tubs and the views; one on the balcony. Amazing location! We could walk right into the back door of Caesars and be one with all.

Cons:

It is an older motel turned into a hotel. But let’s just say they did an amazing job!
