Nice spacious clean room, quiet area, off the free way
Decent hotel for a decent price! The hotel had somewhat of a rustic cottage vibe to it, which was pretty fitting given that we're in Lake Tahoe. It was a great walking distance to the shops at Heavenly Village, so that was amazing.
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.
