Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, although a bit more expensive for the distant location from the lake and towns. The service was friendly and accommodating despite some noise in the mornings. The location was convenient, close to major attractions, and easy access to highways. The dining experience was a mix of good and not-so-good options. Overall, a decent value for money stay.
The hotel is conveniently located right off the freeway, not far from downtown Truckee, making it a convenient stop on your trip. The rooms are clean and fairly comfortable, although the bed was a bit too soft. The service was friendly and accommodating, with helpful staff throughout my stay. However, the dining experience was subpar, leaving much to be desired. Overall, it's a decent choice for a short stay with good value for money.
