Great mountain motel

Very nicely remodeled motel for our trip to Sierra-at-Tahoe. Comfy bed, clean modern bathroom, fridge and microwave, super friendly staff, good shop next door that's coffee by day, bar at night. The grounds by the river look beautiful with firepits and chairs, would be great to come back in the summer I think.

Great spot to rest between explorations!

Fabulous room and location for outdoor exploration! I’d hoped to do a little work while staying and found the wifi and limited nearby amenities less than ideal for those purposes, but otherwise it was awesome - kind people, clean, etc.
