The room was dirty. My shower handle wasn't even on the spigot. Just sitting in the bottom of the shower. It continuously dropped. The front desk just blew me off.

I knew going into this stay i wouldn't be getting luxury, but it was nice and clean, the beds were comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was a little run down but you can't beat the location for walkability to the lake, the casinos, and the shops and restaurants. I'd stay there again.

6/10 Good

Clean but outdated which is in line with the low price. The trouble came when I left 2 shirts in the room. Uncooperative and rude staff and I will never get them back. I was told it's my fault for accidentally leaving them there. The post office has black listed this motel and won't work with them. Very disappointed.

Would NOT recommend this place
I don’t even see how this place has three starts. The hotel room was very dirty, there was pee on the wall in the bathroom. Everything was not clean from the sheets on the bed to the towels hanging up in the bathroom. We actually left to Ross and bought bed sheets and blankets. I was worried we were going to get bed bugs. The guy in the front office was not friendly and he made it seem that you were bugging him. I would NOT recommend this place even if it’s for a one night trip.

Good location. Tv would not work most of trip. Not sure if it was satelight or what was wrong but it was direct tv and we simply wanted to check out sports updates and sleep better with tv but could not do that. If you arrive after dark be ready for absolutely no parking. Room was not very clean. Like i said great location near town and entertainment but room was not worth the price we paid.

Property need up keep, room had a smell, towels were old and rough, tv did not work, the mattress were comfortable. The concierge was not friendly.

2/10 Poor

Absolutely gross and unsafe. Room was broken down lamp shade fell off lamp and toilet was plugged with toilet paper and poop. I felt like we were being watched all night. The room had a conjoined door to the room next door. The lock on the door was broken and the hotels fix was to place a dresser in front of it. Do not stay here if you value your health and life. Prior to going to Tahoe my children were scared of the local bears. The rats outside of the hotel dominated any size bear. The photos online do not represent the rooms. It’s not only nasty it’s a scam.

Very disappointed
The floor was blistered and peeling. The night stand's top finish was partially stripped to the bare wood. The windows had no screens. No coffee in office. Parking lot was practically empty, but they wouldn't give a 70 year old person a ground floor room when requested.

Big Pines is very clean, quiet, and in a great location that is close to downtown. The room was perfect for a quick, one night trip for a fairly cheap price. It is also nice that they are pet friendly. One thing that was not ideal was that the toilet did not flush well, even when it was just tp.

Air conditioning, TV, microwave, coffee maker were not working. Old and rundown. Unkept. It should have been cheaper than what I paid for. There was a Dirty socks in between the mattress and the head board. Shower was small and squeaks. When they tried to fix the air conditioner, it turned off every 34 minutes and the worker had to turn the breaker on every time.

This was the worst experience in a hotel … the carpet was so dirty and the AC stinks - can’t say enough it was a last minute booking so we were not able to get anything else that late in the night - the bath tub had glass doors and one of the panels was missing so a lot of water came out to the floor. The. Toiletries were so basic to shampoo and conditioner- no lotion I had to go to the front desk to request anything bc there was no phone in the room- AVOID THIS HOTEL- was worst that any motel I can’t tell you enough totally not going back there- the only thing was the location was very convenient- the pics in Expedia are very deceiving totally not as advertised! BE AWARE . Also the customer service was horrible - I requested for room house keeping and they didn’t even delivered clean towels !!
