Booked the romantic room with my partner for valentines day specifically for the heart shaped tub. We were super excited to use it until we turned on the jets and black mold spewed out. We brought our concerns up with staff, as that is not only gross but a health hazard and were brushed off. Overall its a decent place, but staff were hard to locate and the hot tub incident left our skin crawling.

Evette at the desk was great! The property is super cute and we were very happy with our room. Walking distance to so much good stuff. Microwave & mini fridge was very convenient. The dark horse coffee provided in the room in the AM was so delicious. Bummed that our room didn’t have a separate shower from the heart shaped tub, I totally thought it would. Nonetheless great trip, will recommend.

The room was very cute and comfortable! It was perfect for our one night stopover in Tahoe. My kids loved getting to sleep on the pullout and the bathroom is bigger than ours at home so they were very excited about that too, haha! The hotel’s location was pretty excellent, with Safeway and CVS right next door, plus the lake and loads of cute shops within walking distance. One of the best parts about our stay was the coffee in the hotel room! This is the first time I’ve ever had hotel coffee that was better than the coffee shop in town. It was a pleasant surprise. I hope to stay here again in the future!

Great location walking distance from the lake and close to nice places to eat. Checking in and parking was not a problem. Room was updated, warm, and had everything we needed. Worth it to get a suite.

The property and staff were amazing… but please go through the Inn at Boatworks to book your stay. Expedia charged me $275 MORE than the hotel and refuses to give any refund. I’ll never use Expedia again. Take the time to call the hotel yourself… save yourself a lot of money! My apologies to the hotel if this review effects your stars. Expedia really screwed me. Never again.

Because our stay involved a pet having surgery nearby the hotel kindly let us check out later than usual. Very helpful.

Big advertisement on the description about a fabulous mexican restaurant on the premesis. It's actually been closed for three months. This was a problem because of extreme snow storm prohibited going somewhere else. Also, very slow to remove the snow from the parking area, took us a 1/2 hour to get our 4x4 truck out.

Resoundingly disappointed for the very high price. Dingy carpet, burnt out lightbulbs, and very ancient mattresses. Sofa in the suite needed to be cleaned desperately. Generally unpleasant and dark. I paid less for a two bedroom oceanfront condo in Kauai that was gorgeous back in April. Skip this spot.

The location of this Inn is fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was not worth the price. There was no iron, the hair dryer didn't work, nor did the coffee pot. There was no view, and it was noisy. Signs say redevelopment is proposed, so maybe then it might be worth the price, but definitely not as is right now. Very disappointing!

The property was perfect for our short stay. Clean and spacious for our family. Next time, I would request a room on the top floor as you can hear the footsteps on the bottom. A small table or coffee table would be nice as well.

This place is located quite conveniently at the edge of downtown Tahoe City, a 3-minute walk to Safeway and easy access to the lakeside trail and park, as well as several eateries and a Tahoe Dave’s for snowsport gear. Registration was quick and without hitches after we got a courtesy call that we could check in early. There was plenty of parking despite the snowdrift occupying several spaces. As for the room: The beds were clean and comfortable. The bathtub was rather blockish but it contained enough hot water for a good aprés-ski soak. The fridgeling was fine and spacious but the freezer slacked off such that we tragically had to throw out a near-full box of ice cream sandwiches. The fridgeling and a microwave were all there was in the way of a kitchenette. I also appreciated the amenities, including a bag of locally roasted coffee and nice local toiletries. Though it is just above the lakeshore above its namesake Boatworks, the view from the bathroom window gave on the facade of a shopping mall ironically named Mirada. All in all, it gave us what we needed, and they let us bring the dog.

Excellent location, great front desk service. Older motel but has updated carpet, bathroom and very clean. We were very comfortable, only stayed 1 night but the location was perfect could walk to anything you would want to do. Main reason we chose was because we could bring our dog and even if we didn’t I would stay again.

Let me start with the positives: The person who checked me in was lovely, the renovation is cute and appears to have been done well, and the room had some fun decor touches. The bed was comfortable. Everything was clean. Onto the negatives: The shower had one temperature - scalding hot. We were unable to fully shower during our stay which was frustrating given the high price of the room. The guests above us had two small children who stomped on us the entire time we were in the room (yes, all night long). Note to staff: perhaps consider placing guests with children on the ground floor only since there is no floor insulation. I have stayed multiple times at competing motels in the area (all renovated small motels) that are much more comfortable than this one and considerably cheaper. I am unlikely to return to this one.

We had a great stay at The Inn at Boatworks. We rented a suite with a king bed and it was much more spacious than we expected. The hotel is right in the heart of Tahoe City and walkable to all of the restaurants. The staff was super friendly and helpful as well. We would definitely stay here again.

The property was fine except we didn’t have trash cans, tv remote, or even heat. The room was about 60 degrees at the hottest point. Luckily we are outdoorsy ppl and had sleeping bags. Otherwise it would have been extremely uncomfortable
