I’ve stayed here before so I can speak to how it has held up (3 years ago). The small hotel is in good shape. The room I stayed in was small and very clean, modernized with minimalist features and comfortable. The bed was firm enough for support, with 3 big fluffy pillows and clean sheets. At night it was quiet (although I did hear some sort of machinery during the day on the wall in the back of the room). The room has blackout curtains and is well lit on walkways in front so that if you come in late enough, it is safe. Coffee & tea are offered in the mornings. This location is very centralized around a lot of eateries and action. It is a short walking distance to Stateline and stores, with the shopping center directly across the street. I found this helpful as I forgot a power charger for my devices. The only comment I would make for the property to improve is to change out the color of the lighting to warmer tones (it’s very ‘cold white’) and not use such a heavy scented cleaners. They have so many chemicals that can irritate the lungs. With the window closed, it was overwhelming! I ended up putting the ironing board between the curtain and the opened window so that I could sleep, which was great because it was the beautiful Lake Tahoe scent!
A very clean bathroom with a tub.
Small and minimalist, with 3 fluffy pillows! Bed was a firm supportive type. The window opened up for fresh Tahoe air!

Great for just tbe night. Location is perfect. Walking distance to all the shops and casinos. Parking is tight and rooms are small but for $98 it was perfect for the 1 night we stayed. Staff was very helpful and let us check in early with no charge A+. Only negative is the walls are super thin. You can hear every conversation, car door, music going on near the property. But other then that it was a great little hotel.

Overall for the price it was adequate. This motel was close to everything and staff were always helpful and nice. However, the air con was super loud and would wake us up in the middle of the night, and the pillows were way too thick it was just uncomfortable to sleep with.
