I ask for a no pet room but the room they gave me still has that wet animal odor. The tv control remote doesn’t work and they said I have to wait till tomorrow morning to get a different one. I’m only staying here for one night so that is not good.

Ski trip
This is a no frills restaurant but its ok to stay for skiing trip. However, i did not care to be in a room with ajoining rooms on either side. I heard conversations and loud kids. The walls are thin. Other than that, it is within walking distance of restaurants and casinos.

Very old hotel. Our room looked very poorly maintained. Toilet leaked, no side table lamps. Very noise heater, weird holes on the walls and ceiling. Surprised to see such a hotel room in California, in Tahoe area to be honest.
