Overall, it is fantastic. It is right on the lake Tahoe. You can walk to the beach in 0 min. There are restaurants near by and Safeway is within walking distance. It is clean in general but somewhat the toilet was not flushed when I arrived. No big deal but I was a bit shocked.

Front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Plenty of texts so great communication. Front desk is open limited hours so communicate if you need to arrive late. Room was clean, heat worked well. Reasonably quiet. Nice hot-tub and location is on the beach. Plenty of dining within walking distance. Close to Northstar and Palisades. Was the best value around to go skiing in North Tahoe

Unique with large rooms. Clean and well maintained. Breakfast was as stated. If not interested in a continental breakfast then be prepared to eat someplace else. Easy check-in and out.

It was a real dump. The carpet looks like it could give you a terminal disease. The last remodel was in the fifties. I had the heating up to highest level and it was still cold.

We loved the Crown Motel! Staff were super friendly and helpful. Beds were normal sized queens with new comfortable mattresses. Rooms were relatively large with room for luggage, etc with new amenities and very clean. We had a kitchenette with partial view of the lake which was stunning. Hot tub was large, clean and so soothing with sweeping view of the lake, perfect for apres ski. Hotel is dog friendly but charges small fee. We were so happy to find such a clean, newly renovated, and excellently located hotel that also takes dogs. Close to Dave's ski shop, two coffee places, and Jason's restaurant. Lovely beach park outside the doors. Staff shared view rooms are first come first serve so book early!

Great location less than 15 min to Northstar, lots of food options, lakefront walk. Very friendly and helpful staff, appreciated extra towels and late check out when needed. Clean rooms with fridge and microwave, could use a rug shampooing (just bring slippers). Can hear neighbors thru the walls if they are loud but most guests are considerate. Parking can be tight. It's an older facility but is a great value. Would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay when visiting Northstar. Super clean room and amazing view of the Lake. I think it was midway through refurbishment as the room would have benefited from some coat hooks, pictures and maybe a full length mirror. I would certainly stay again 😀

We stayed in one of the renovated rooms and it was clean, comfortable and decently spacious. The location of this property is unbeatable - Very close to Northstar (10 mins drive), right on the lake beach and walking distance to lot of F&B options in Kings beach. The only bummer was the new 'smart' TV didnt seem to have live TV, and even the front-desk staff wasnt able to figure it out.

Staff member called and was rude on the phone after we checked out. Accused us of not checking out on time. I explained that we checked out in person and left hours ago. He insisted we left luggage in our room. We didn't. He called the wrong guests and was a prick.

Hi Jennica, We are sorry for the odd experience post-checkout. That is definitely unlike any of our staff, I will follow up about this, thank you. We hope you enjoyed your stay otherwise.

My husband and I booked a Standard Room, King, for 2 nights. I choose Crown Motel for its proximity to T.A.R.T. Route Hwy 267, walkability to restaurants, close proximity to the Lake and reasonable price. We were not disappointed; we got all that we wanted. Noah, the Front Desk person who checked us in, was very nice, helpful and professional. Our room looked updated. It was comfortable, clean and showers was hot & the water pressure was strong. It was small, but we didn't stay there to stay in our room. It was so nice to be able to walk to the Lake from our room. The hot tub was hot with gorgeous views of the Lake! Go to the hot tub either early or late as it does get popular. Would like to stay here again!

Loved the crown motel. Every step of the stay was pleasant. I received a text for check in instructions. The room was clean and has two beds as expected. It came with a mini kitchen too. The view of the kings beach was amazing. Would totally recommend it

Great deal
The location is awesome. Rooms are good. It has a seasonal pool and a hot (warm) tub. The only complaint is that the Wifi would barely work, at least in room 240. I had to stay by the door, even then, it was 1 or 2 bars and extremely slow.

This motel surpassed my expectations. It was a cute and comfortable little lakeside motel. I would highly recommend. It doesn’t look like much from the road but it was a very pleasant stay and amazing lake views.

We had a lakefront room and it was so nice to go to sleep with the sound of the water hitting the shore. The staff was super responsive and everything was done via text. I was also skeptical as I don't often stay in motels but it was a excellent location and the room was perfect for me, my husband and our daughter. And being walkable distance to a variety of restaurants made it very convenient.
