Convenient location for dining, Heavenly ski resort, and shops. You can walk to gondola. Older facility but room was clean. Nice to have kitchenette for breakfast and snacks. Staff was quick to respond to request for remote batteries and light bulb needed. Heating worked well. Overall, the facility could use an update on rooms and exterior but seemed safe and was fine for our ski tri.

Good Option for South Tahoe

Great location less than one block from the Heavenly gondola and reasonably clean rooms with no strange smell. Overall, this hotel is a great option for the lower cost hotels in South Tahoe that are frequently terrible. The blinds need maintenance as they do not close properly. Need better instructions on how to use cable TV. Front desk could not figure it out, but the cleaning staff helped me.

It was alright

This place was alright. it was good for an average stay, from being out in the cold all day it was so nice to have the room warm. the shower was a bit of an issue. cold water would run even when u would just use hot water handle but then outta no where hot water would appear. it was clean as much as it could be, no mess and everything was good.
