My wife and I stayed one night after making a reservation thru the Entertainment Book. We paid $136 for a "standard queen". The bed was smaller than our queen at home. The toilet had dirty brown stains in the bowl and leaked all night causing the tank to refill about every five minutes. The place was almost empty but yet we were given a ...

A Mediocre Motel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/25/09
Stayed at this "motel" while in Tahoe to attend a wedding. Preparing to attend the wedding I found out the hairdryer did not work. Called front desk to ask for another as needed to be at wedding in 45 minutes. They said(unsympathetically) they would have to send a maintenance crew to fix the dryer as they had no other dryers to replace ...
My wife and I were very pleased with the Inn By The Lake. While it is not a five star property it is a FINE property to stay at if you're visiting South Lake Tahoe.
When I entered the lobby to check in, they had a sign welcoming us that also announced that we were celebrating our anniversary. A nice touch. The staff was very nice, friendly ...
Everything about this place is great!!! From the location right across the lake, extended continental breakfast, on site fitness, bi-level hot tub (nice!), bowling on property for kids!!! Inn by the Lake is definitely somewhere I would come back to and recommend to any and all that love and appreciate the beauty of Tahoe!!!
I REALLY LIKED THIS PLACE. MY HUSBAND AND I SPENT $175 ON A ROOM THAT FACED THE LAKE. IT WAS VERY NICE. THE ROOM WAS VERY BIG. WHAT I DIDNT LIKE WAS THE FACT THAT I HAD MY FRIENDS STOP BY IN THE EVENING AND WE WERE ALL TALKING ON THE BALCONY ADMIRING THE VIEW WHEN THE FRONT OFFICE CALLED ABOUT A NOISE COMPLAINT.WE WERE NOT LOUD AT ALL. OTHER THAN ...

Dirty Room
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/13/07
I was not impressed with the room, the shams were soiled and wrinkled, made you wonder what condition the bed roll and spread were in. The toilet was stained.
My cousin used her credit card to reserve the room, but I wanted to pay for it, the clerk took my card, did the transaction and handed my card and the reciept back to me. Now my cousin ...

Honestly!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/09/06
If you stay here be very careful of the non-smoking policy. Seriously, the contract you sigh allows them to arbitrarily charge your credit card $50.00 per day if they think you smoked in your room. They just charge your credit card after you leave. I got charged $150.00 for a three night stay where I did not smoke in the room. I smoked on the ...
I thought it was going to be a little more fancy than a normal hotel, hence the name "Inn," but it was like any regular motel. Our room was kind of noisy- the mini fridge ran all night long. The matress abd pillows were really lumpy. The pool was nice, but the hot tub was out of order. The lake is across the highway, so you can walk to it, but it took at least 10 minutes before we could actually walk in the cross walk.

We will definitely stay here again.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/03/05
The staff was excellent and the location was great. We did not want to stay close to the casinos, but we wanted to have access to the restaurants in the area. Inn by the Lake was the perfect place for us. It was only a few miles from the casinos, but very close to hiking trails also. Our room was small and older, but it was very clean. The ...
