Traveler photo of South Lake Tahoe by Pam

United States of America · March 25, 2016

was very clean three blocks away from the beach and we got a free pass only one block away from Heavenly Village all kinds of restaurants shopping Mountain gondola and the casinos what's very perfect area and I love the fact that they have a refrigerator and microwave and coffee maker because my daughter has diabetes so we definitely need a refrigerator for her insulin the pool was great clean the bestest was good I will definitely stay there again for Southside Tahoe with the great More bargan

Melinda, United States of America

The room was great. The location was great we loved the hot tub. They also give you a free flyer to get in the beach. Which you would want and need due to a 5 per person fee to get in.

Be'era, United States of America

The Blue Jay Lodge was a wonderful place to stay. The room was nice and clean. Everything worked. Employees were very friendly and helpful. It was close to the beach with a free pass. We were very happy with our decision to stay here and will again on our next trip to Lk. Tahoe.

“While my stay was nice, the hotel was horrible.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Queen Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉The photo's shown on the website when I booked were not at all what my room looked like. There are parts of the hotel that are renovated, which is what I thought I was getting, but got a dump room instead on the back of the property. There was a coffee pot, but no carafe, no iron or ironing board. The walls looked dirty, and I doubt that they even vacuumed when they cleaned the room. I was very unsatisfied with the accomodations.
눇Closeness to town

눉If your looking for luxury this is not your place to stay. The towels were small, thin, rough and discolored. The hotel is old and could use some updates and the beds were not very comfortable.
눇The location is excellent for easy access to the Heavenly Valley Village as well as a multitude of eateries. we were able to walk to the gondola and enjoy a day up the mountain at the Heavenly epic discovery.
