I had a nice stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and a short walk to local attractions where I met up with my friends. However, the strong fragrance was a bit overwhelming, so we had to turn on the fan/ac and go for lunch. The fresh paint smell was noticeable but not uncomfortable. The room was well-maintained, with lots of pillows, and the refrigerator/freezer temperature was perfect.

The staff was very helpful and provided useful recommendations for places to eat within walking distance. They even arranged a phototour for me. However, when I requested a cleaner room with better security features, the service was not as accommodating.

The location was excellent, with convenient parking and close to a variety of activities, restaurants, and Lake Tahoe. It was only a short distance to the beach and a family-friendly beer garden. Super close to Harvey's, making it a great choice for easy access to popular attractions.

The dining options were decent with a variety of cereals, juice, fruits, coffee, and donuts/pastries. However, it could be improved with offerings like toast, English muffins, and better coffee.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms need renovation and are small, but I appreciated the efforts to maintain a comfortable and relatively quiet environment. The service was friendly but lacked consistency. The location was fantastic, making it convenient to access various attractions. The dining options were limited and could be improved.
