This place gives 1 star motels a bad name. Wow. Stayed here a few months ago and the guys running the place had horrible attitudes. The room looks decent upon first glance, as does the exterior of the place, but first impressions are deceiving. There were stains all over the place, the carpet was dark dark green to cover up... more

I guess what you pay is what you get. I was just looking for a non-expensive place to sleep at and it was not as great as I thought it would be. The room lighting was not very good (lamp didn't work), the bathroom was very small, and the room did not seem all that clean. Late at night (about... more

I stayed with two friends at the Vagabond Inn in South Lake Tahoe over the Easter week'd since we went skiing in Heavenly. The reception staff was quite unfriendly and lazy. Even we did pay for three people, it took several requests from us to get a third towel. The carpet in the room had several large stains and the... more

This is the cleanest hotel I have stayed in around South Lake Tahoe. The rooms are clean. The sheets are clean and not threadbare, the staff is courteous. I booked the room and said there is only 1 person staying. When 4 of us showed up, they just told us to keep the noise down and we there would be... more

Super cheap hotel - great valuie for money. Excellant position to the heavebly gondola (tip - gondala is busy so worth taking the California Lodge chair if you are there for the snow!) Clean, Basic, a little dated but who cares when you are only there to sleep! Maid service every day and clean towels. Very hot spa - which... more

The hotel has good reviews and had a good rate so I tried it. I booked over 4 weeks ahead of time and the manager told me "We have plenty of room" I brought my printed confirmations with me and when I arrived, he had given my room to someone else, and stuck us in the handicapped room. We were... more

Booked hotel for 1 night - room with a spa. Hotel definitely needs some updating. Friendly employees. Room was clean but bathroom smelled a little moldy. TV was situated where it was difficult to see from the bed. When I went to use the spa the jets wouldn't work which I was really disappointed. It was in the wee hours... more

Helpful staff and dog-friendly motel. We paid $50 between the ski season and fourth of july weekend to stay here with our dog ($40 for us, $10 for our dog). The rooms are nothing fancy but are functional, clean, and decent sized. The in-room fridge was helpful prior to our hiking trip and proximity to the main shopping center is... more
