Everything about our stay at the Inn and South Lake Tahoe was great. Easy check-in, friendly staff, very comfortable and clean room and bathroom. The location is close to dining, casinos, shopping. Would stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful old hotel, very dog friendly.

It is definitely and old and dated building, but the interior decorating is visually appealing and the rooms are comfortable. We loved how dog friendly the hotel was and it's convenient location within the town of South Lake Tahoe.
David, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Location was good. Room was comfortable. Staff was friendly. Elevator not usable during our trip and fan in our bathroom did not work. Walls are thin and could hear people walking/talking in hallways. Overall, the location and room worked for us but it was just average.

I enjoyed my stay here. Sad to find out they'll be turning into a Holiday inn soon 😢. The staff were great James and Jenny were amazing. They even gave me a late check out without charging me a fee. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Came to celebrate my birthday.......

niall, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was not clean except the bed, carpet torn, the hallways were filthy, our heater was broken which required maintenance to repair it, no ice in the ice machine, and one of the queen beds light was missing from the wall.

GOVIND, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Bare bones but has everything you need. WiFi was slow, people were friendly.
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great property, friendly staff, clean room and walking distance to everything we wanted to do in South Lake. Continental breakfast was a plus and they had great coffee in the morning! Would definitely stay here again!
Kaitlyn, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Despite its grim and dim appearance

In contrast to the advertisement, the room depicted in the picture appeared to be rather unclean. The elevator was surprisingly small, and the parking area was dimly lit and compact. The breakfast was disappointing, primarily consisting of coffee and muffins. However, it is worth noting that the hotel is conveniently located near a lakeside beach.

Rooms are big and we enjoyed stay with one year old
Kokkiligadda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Won’t go back.

Won’t stay here again. The whole property is run down. One of the stairwells doesn’t even go all the way to the ground and is caution taped off. Location was nice and walkable to the concert venue at Cesar’s.
Stephanie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was conveniently located. The staff was a little to laid back, spending time on their phone. In the breakfast room the young man sat on his phone and the Hot water and both coffees were empty, the small trash was full and over following, and the prepackaged bagels and muffins needed to be restocked.
Robin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

You get what you pay for. Stained bedding and dirty floors. Pool was nice and there was a free limited continental breakfast.
Katie, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place is a complete dump. Not sure how heath authorities still allow it to operate. It smells mold everywhere and it is one of the dirtiest hotels I have ever seen.
