The AC unit was messed up. I think it has a bad bearing. The entire room shakes when it goes on. A bonus vibrating bed but with no control over it! I was woken up by the shaking a dozen times. Tahoe City is up in the mountains and the blankets were not substantial, so the heater was essential. Sleep or warm were the options here, but not both unfortunately.

Room was clean, very cute with the decor. I really enjoyed the outdoor firepits right outside the lobby (there are two). It was quiet and my boyfriend and I were the only ones out there so we got to enjoy each other's company while roasting some smores and drinking a beer that we got from the lobby (I highly recommend their strawberry cider-yum!) . We were only there for one night since we decided to extend our trip, but I would definitely stay here again.

Great location- walk across the street to get to bike trails and beach access. Hotel is cute with lots of rustic reclaimed wood and nice decor. Had great wine and watched Monday night football at Uncorked with some friendly locals. Only minor downside is showerhead was from about 1976 so the shower experience wasn't as great as I assumed it would be with all the other uogrades and attention to detail

Coffee in lobby only had chemical creamers
( really?)
Side area with two chairs had trash the whole time all over the ground. Other than that it’s a decent place to stay.
