My stay at The Lodge at Lake Tahoe was quite pleasant. The location is incredibly convenient, being just a half-mile walk from the casinos and close to great shopping and dining. The two-bedroom unit I upgraded to was spacious and had a fully stocked kitchen, though I found the mattresses uncomfortable. While I loved the clean grounds and helpful staff, the lack of air conditioning made for some warm nights.

While the Lodge at Lake Tahoe had some redeeming qualities, like a clean pool and spacious rooms, it ultimately fell short of my expectations.
