2/10 Poor

Worst place in South Lake Tahoe. AVOID!!!!!
It was absolutey disgusting..to say the least. The beds looked as if they justvrolled out of them 5 seconds prior to me arriving. The trash was full in all rooms, cups and sink were like a toddler was learning how to make coolaide and spilled every lasy drop on the counter... i could feel the bed bugs plotting on me as i walked in. I immediately left and was promised a refund, but have not had any luck getting that back. The "landlord" will not answer any calls.

4/10 Fair

One of the few times I’ve stayed at a place and had to leave the property and request my money back. Very poor lighting conditions (can’t see much in room at night. Floors weren’t very clean. Top bunk bed didn’t seem sturdy— pulled mattress on floor for daughter to sleep on. Air conditioning did not work, and when we asked how it worked, was told the property didn’t have air-conditioning, which was not advertised. Staying in July w just a ceiling fan did not work for us. On the second night after a long day of activities, we came back to the room and found a weird smell coming from the bathroom. Shower was backed up and had standing water which smelled like sewer/dirty water. Called the next day and was told the plumber would come out. Plumber couldn’t fix the problem and we were told would show up sometime the following week. After so many inconveniences, we decided to pack up and find other accommodations. The property manager/contact was very accommodating and did get back to immediately, which is the only reason I’m giving it more than one star. Unfortunately, I would not recommend staying here in this location.

There is a lot of dust on the cabinet and countertop. The toilet paper box in the toilet should be updated. Everything in the room is the same as in the photos. There is a coffee machine in the room but there are no coffee capsules. There is a pack of opened coffee powder. I raised questions after checking in, but I didn't receive a reply from any landlord
