This site was really close to all the shops and restaurants and a very short walk to the beach. I really liked the no-contact check in, they text you when your room is ready and how to get in without having to actually go into the office, very convenient. The room was clean and cozy. I would come again!

Affordable, easy to reach stay in Tahoe.
The Alder Inn is very well located in South Lake Tahoe. Nice setting, very close to the beach and about a 30-minute walk to the stores and restaurants in Heavenly Village. Property seems a bit dated and it is a bit weird that there is no staff on-site. This did not hinder my stay however. The rooms could use a bit of an update, to bring them a bit more into 2024. But it was comfortable, rooms are spacious and it's very easy to get too.

Good location, easy self-parking, mini-fridge and microwave oven in the room, the only issue was that the temperature in the room was bit high during night time.

Very nice stay. The only issue I had was that the pillows were very thick and uncomfortable. The room was lovely, the shower was great and the staff responsive. I would stay again but bring my own pillow.
