Liked: Cleanliness
This hotel even though I have stayed there multiple times it’s just a basic overpriced hotel. There is nothing fancy about it other than it has a beach access/restaurant. There are many other options in town for half the price if not less especially if you’re just needing a room for overnight.

Absolutely horrible experience. The rooms are so outdated. I paid 400 for a beach front room with absolutely no amenities. The bedding is a false advertisement, no plush bedding. The hotel will offer earlier check in for extra charge but watch out because they won’t have any rooms available till 4 pm. There were dead roaches outside my room. At 11 pm I had a security guard wake us up responding to a complaint that a 15 year old was alone and frantically making disturbance. The security guard woke myself and my family up oh but wait we start getting phone calls from front desk after I was trying to go back to sleep. Went the next day to talk to a manager but guess what the manager is not there on the weekends. Expedia reached out to a manager and they refused to compensate our room at all. Don’t stay here.

Great experience. We've stayed here a few times. Love the ease of getting to the beach, access to pool, and and the basic amenities. The restaurant staff could use help. When it gets busy everything goes down hill. Overall this a great place to stay.

The beach we liked. The property needs to be cleaned up. Lots of dead plans in planters garbage he/leaves on the ground. It could be really nice if stuff would take the time to clean it.

Pros: 1. I got free room upgrade. 2. Great location right by Lake Tahoe. Cons: 1. Old and pretty worn out rooms. 2. Motel feeling.
