"It was a really nice hotel"

Basecamp South Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"Watch out for bears but the hotel was clean and well kept. Easy check-in and check-out. A little noisy at night but overall good location for the price."

The Jeffrey Hotel

8/10 Good

"Heads up that there’s no onsite staff, other than housekeepers during those hours. Just call center. It’s an updated and upgraded motel (door lead to parking lot), with a kitchen. Simple but effective."

Quality Inn South Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"Room was as described. It was clean and convenient to all restaurants and stores. Helpful staffs."

Edgewood Tahoe Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot, lovely views and nice pool. Staff is a bit slow and they are under construction and they start at 6am so be aware."

Gold Dust West Carson City

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and didn't smell too much like smoke till I was in there longer then I really noticed the smoke. It says a non smoking room, but definitely smelled of smoke. The AC blew cold, but was loud cycling on and off. Shower looked nice, up to date walk in shower with glass door. The water pressure was awful! hardly any water comes out of that fancy square shower head. Took forever to wash soap and conditioner from my hair and still had residue. Found a dried blood stain on bathroom floor. Overall, not bad, up to date decor, but the smoke was getting to me, the awful lack of water in the shower and dried blood stain on floor."

Bluelake Inn at Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"Exactly what we needed for a "home base" after a long day of hiking. Clean, cute, easy to navigate to, private, easy to park. Plus I loved the look of it. Highly recommend."

Pepper Tree Inn

8/10 Good

"Is there A/C?…"…………………………………………."
