This is a budget hotel so expectations are lower. We booked last minute due to a winter storm and got stuck in tahoe. They ran out of rooms so they moved us across the street to sister hotel elevation hotel which had lower reviews so i didn’t book that but i had no choice. The bedsheets had cigarette burn hole, walls had patchy paint, live wire behind the cabinet, you can hear everything from outside, and room had a weird stench. Pros was it had a microwave and a heater. Good enough for a night to sleep in.

The rooms were clean, cozy, and perfect for crashing after long day out exploring. Everything felt easy and low-key, which is exactly what we wanted. The staff were friendly and chill, and the whole place just had a welcoming, no-stress atmosphere. We would stay again for sure and highly recommend to others as well.

The room was definitely one of the worst ones I have ever been. A bunch of nasty stains, the beds were terrible as well as the pillows. The price I paid did not match the room I received. I have pictures for proof. If it were possible for me to be refunded for all the trouble it caused would be great. I appreciate it that the staff member was able to switch me and family to another room, but the result was the same. Would never stay here again.

The rooms are bright, clean, and incredibly comfortable, with a cozy mountain charm. The location is ideal—close to the lake and local attractions but quiet enough to truly relax. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, making it feel welcoming and hassle-free. A perfect spot for a Tahoe escape!
