Great location and very clean/comfortable. None of the outlets in the room would hold a plug in though (too loose) which was extremely frustrating.

Door code didn't work so I called Sam. Sam reset the code and stayed on the phone until we tested and it opened.

There was no service. Access by code to your phone. TV did not work. Bed and hotel made for small people. Not very comfortable.

8.0 / 10.0

The place was situated in a quiet part of town away from the main streets but close enough to everything from restaurants and the lake.

4.0 / 10.0

1. Check-in time is unreasonable, 4:00 PM is absurd 2. Clearly not the place for you if you like to have a great sleep, there are no blackout curtains. 3. I asked for cutlery to eat food and they asked me to get it from some nearby restaurant 4. No air conditioner at the place, it was heating during my visit

Amazing hotel, comfy room, welcoming environment, fun facilities

4.0 / 10.0

Shower water kept changing during shower from luke warm to cold. while sink water stayed hot. Bed was hard as a rock. Floor was dusty. Towel rack unusable not attached to wall. Sawing and hammering started 8:30 am next to our room #1. was told workers won't get there until 9am.

2.0 / 10.0

It seems the motel was recently acquired from remote owners. The room we stayed in was not good at all. Most modern motels have AC so you expect it. This motel only has small AC units in the upstairs units. Our room was hot, sink did not drain, the cheap fans they give you are loud. They leave the lights on all night and the shades are trash so you have light in your room all night. I would avoid. Ballys has great rooms.

Everything was very clean

4.0 / 10.0

Automated booking and check in was easy enough, but there was no obvious indication that the room booked was a handicapped friendly room, meaning no tub. Other than that, everything was great! Clean, tidy, nice location. Would do again.

Mattress too soft, pillow too firm, no AC, really hard to rest well.

Nice basic hotel conveniently located. Easy walk to Ski Run Marina, shopping, nearby restaurants. Room and property were clean.

4.0 / 10.0

A “motel-6”-class hotel for $360/night. Very old property, small room, old unmatched furniture/decor. No front desk to speak of - you have to upload a photo of your ID to their website by taking a photo ahead of time and wait for them to send you a code to your room. Didn’t do it ahead of time? Do this from your car when you arrive and wait for email with further instructions. all the furniture and decor don’t match and look like they are out of a thrift store - we had a broken piano stool in our room with broken yellow(!) upholstery. Plugs are falling out from the outlets, toilet has very poor flow and half the time doesn’t flush, but staff provided a large plunger that is sitting right there so you can help yourself and unclog it every time you use it. For this price level we expected a lot more.

10.0 / 10.0

Communication was excellent. They accommodate an early check in for a reasonable price. Clean and close to everything.

6.0 / 10.0

The TV remote didn’t work. Called and was told someone would swing by. No one came. There was no one on site. There was only 2 paper coffee cups, no replenishment for our entire stay. 2 adults, 2 night stay. Rooms were ok. Area was very good, convenient.

10.0 / 10.0

Great location, close to shopping, dining, casinos but just far enough away for a quiet, in nature feel.

10.0 / 10.0

Location is great, right on ski run blvd walking distance to lake and restaurants, free parking, ease of communication with staff over text with quick response, comfortable and clean room.

Dirty rooms , shower curtain has mold on unit 10. Unit. 19 sheets were dirty. Outside was dirty and nobody was in the office. Only a gentleman names manny calls you. I never stayed here and was not able to reach the manager they just told me he is on vacation . I’m awaiting my refund since I never stayed here and still no answer.

Stained linen on bed. Bed frame of bed was broken. No ac in room. Loud upstairs. Parking is not designated to your room. No security on site or customer service available if needed.

The Alder Inn is very well located in South Lake Tahoe. Nice setting, very close to the beach and about a 30-minute walk to the stores and restaurants in Heavenly Village. Property seems a bit dated and it is a bit weird that there is no staff on-site. This did not hinder my stay however. The rooms could use a bit of an update, to bring them a bit more into 2024. But it was comfortable, rooms are spacious and it's very easy to get too.

10.0 / 10.0

This site was really close to all the shops and restaurants and a very short walk to the beach. I really liked the no-contact check in, they text you when your room is ready and how to get in without having to actually go into the office, very convenient. The room was clean and cozy. I would come again!

8.0 / 10.0

Good clean room for two nights. Bed was decent but could use better pillows. My husband and I had room 11, it was upstairs and away from everyone. It was closest to the street so ambulance noise was amplified. If that bothers you, I would get a different room. The building is old, so it does need updating. The railing going downstairs is a bit wobbly. Also they need better doors. Restroom had no lock, and front door was flimsy with no top lock for more security. Motel is walking distance to lots of coffee shops, restaurants, and close to the water. It is also a short drive from the mountain and everything else.

2.0 / 10.0

We couldn’t stay here for the night due to the quality of our room and the property being dirty, neglected, and dilapidated. The only reason we booked this hotel (motel) was due to its good reviews and hot tub. However, when we arrived, our room was completely outdated and dirty. The trim was chipped and cracked, the walls were stained, and the bathroom stripping was covered in cigarette stains. When we used the sink, it backed up and chunks of unknown material came out. After the outdated gas furnace heater made a loud and weird noise, we make an executive decision to ditch. Additionally, the hot tub and pool were completely neglected. It looks like they’ve been out of service since the last big snow due to the large weeds growing everywhere. I was really looking forward to this place. The pictures and reviews make it look like a lovely, quaint spot close to the beach. We wary of many of the reviews… I’m sure some of them are fake.

4.0 / 10.0

Room was terrible. Room 11. Maybe others are better. No light when we entered had to stand on the bed to turn it on. No outlets near bed. The one on the west wall had a hand written taped sign saying "do not use". Furnace came on and banged loudly in the middle of the night. TV had a faded screen and would not turn off via remote. Had to unplug. Bed was ok. No front desk. Contactless entry but no email explaining. Had to call at 10p. Asked for additional coffee did not receive. Pool and hot tub were dirty and inoperable on Sept. 13th

The Hotel needs better staff to help the cistomers.

8.0 / 10.0

I loved my stay here. They call you the day your stay starts to give you the code for your room. They respond quickly to texts for any issues you have. The top floor has AC units but the bottom doesn't. They do provide a fan, but it was still a little stuffy for me. The room was very clean but I did find some leftover toothpaste on the bottom of a clear cup. I texted the manager and he brought us new cups right away. The lamp in between the beds didn't work. There were some cosmetic issues (i.e. holes/markings/shower leaking) but nothing to cause alarm. I believe it's just an old building that they'll fix up throughout time. It really is a pleasant stay. The beds were very comfortable. Closest beach is less than a 10 minute walk with so many activities for the water (jet skis/boats/parasailing). We even walked to another beach in less than 30 minutes. Food options are less than a 10 minute walk as well as shopping. Plenty of parking. You can text them to ask for more towels or room service and they respond quickly and do an amazing job. The price for the room was very reasonable. I would definitely stay again.
