Regrettably, I was unable to remain in the hotel room due to the excessive heat. Despite the room’s air conditioning being operational, the temperature in the room was at least 77 degrees Fahrenheit, which only increased. The discomfort and high temperature rendered it uninhabitable. Consequently, I was compelled to depart. I would appreciate compensation for the inconvenience caused.

Driveway by entry door is very short, not easy to park and go inside to check in. Handicap parking too far away for mobility impaired drivers. The front desk gal was a big help for me.

Overall, this is a nice physical set up. The lobby and restaurant are nice and the food is good. The pool is not bad, but was not heated and felt like diving into Lake Tahoe in the winter. I have stayed here twice for different events because it’s a convenient location, the first time last year I stayed there the hot water did not work and they said it would not work for 24 hours so I left. We gave it another try and the cable TV in our bedroom did not work not to mention the fact there was no Netflix or anything else like that available. The room was rundown, but clean, and the television was very old and obviously when the cable did not work at first, it was really a joke. They told me I could go down to the restaurant and watch TV. I think if this place got an update that would be great, but given the amenities at similarly situated hotels, this one really fall flat.

an event concluded at the arena across. driveway access to the hotel entrance was coned off and I was not allowed to drive through to unload. I was instructed to park at the parking lot and bring my belongings from parking lot to the hotel. Frustrating after a long drive that I had to drag my belongings from parking lot across the street. More frustrating, as i was trying to locate the hotel I called the front desk for directions or a landmark and all i got was vague directions. I hung up and when I tried to reach the front desk, i was put on hold music. Never again at this hotel.
