This motel should have been called "The Tahoe Peasants", instead of The Tahoe Queen. We were greated at the parking lot by the owner (I'm assuming) who was rushing us because he had something "important" to do, which turned out to be a bidding war on Ebay. We were then told to go inside and sign-in; we entred and met another part of the "friendly" staff, which obviously was unaware that she works in a customer service industry...(can't even go into that one).....we were given the keys and the adventure started.....

It was as if we were stepping back in time, the paneling on the walls were so old and hideous, the rug must have been at least 20 years old, the bathroom door and window were falling apart, no remote for the T.V. that was at least 30 years old, there was even a "Magic Fingers" box by the bed (thought that was kinda funny) but that didn't even work! and best of all...NO A.C., we had to go to the front desk and ask for a fan.

Forget having the late night munchies, because the vending machine had a couple bags of chips that expired in March, the coffee machine looked as if weren't used in ages and there was no ice machine.

So needless to say...I highly recommend that you NOT even consider this motel, even if it's the last one available.

The room was freezing and they gave you the thinnest, oldest blankets to sleep with (it was like sleeping between two sheets of tissue paper)

My friend and I slept with her skiis wedged against the door since there is only a flimsy "push-button" lock on the door--no latch.
Also, the bathroom window didn't have lock on it.

The clientele was clearly there to enjoy the casinos and didn't care that they woke up everyone in the hotel.
The acoustics in the room reflected every conversation and when anyone was in the bathroom.
If you think you will get a good night's sleep, be sure to bring heavy-duty ear plugs.

Stayed here weekend of January 28, 2005, and room heat was very unreliable, with interior temperatures as low as 55. Worst yet, getting the owner to get the heat working was very unpleasant. Once, when asked if the heating unit was on, owner replied "do you want me to stay here and stand over it?" External temperature in teens at night. Room heaters are old individual, gas fired, with pilot light. There was no heat in the room when we arrived. Owner lit pilot, claimed that reason pilot was out was winds as high as 60 mph. Yet, in several days of calm, pilot went out repeatedly. It was an incredible hassle getting owner to relight it. We asked for another room, and he told us he had none (yet he also turned on the vacancy light that evening).

Go somewhere else.
