Basecamp Tahoe City

This property is old and antiquated the carpets were filthy no bedspread, just a wool blanket. The couches in the lobby which are pictured in the ad were very worn were probably nice in the 80’s. Our room wasn’t ready at 3:15 but a 4:00 o’clock check in time ,so she showed us a room and it smelled like they used cleaners to cover up what might have been in there the night before. I waited at the door threshold that was enough for me. My husband walked in and said it’s all right but I could tell he wasn’t OK with it. We were joining our family that was at North Shore and we had been at South Shore. Needless to say we did not stay we did not check in and paid $322 for no room , very unhappy. I have notified ******* of the room quality but I just want people to know the property is so mis advertised. The pictures are either doctored up or taken 20 years ago in the summer time. Also be careful if you are compromised with walking the steps are all damaged concrete and you have steps and levels to get to the rooms the place is so hard to describe. I didn’t get a good feeling when we pulled up and no cars in the parking lot. We sat in our truck for a few minutes to decide if we wanted to see a room or not. Wish I would have never made the reservation at all.

We enjoyed 2 night stay here. The room is comfy and clean. We played family board game in the lobby. But on the second night, the next door guests were fighting and screaming. We couldn’t sleep well and kids felt scared. We did call front desk in the middle of night and stopped the noises.

The stay was terrible. On a night when it was 20 degrees outside the hotel room heater did not work. They were not around to help and when we brought this to their attention in the morning the front desk did not show any concern. For being in Tahoe and having no heat is terrible. Do not stay here!!!

great stay. It was perfect location for Granlibakken and visiting nearby spots.

Really comfortable and inviting lobby for a motel, nice to hang out and grab a drink or watch tv. Only complaint I would have is the mattresses seem old and saggy, could stand to be replaced. Otherwise rooms are pretty updated and nice.

In a word: charming. Basecamp was excellent for a brief stay in the mountains. Great staff, creative and funny decor, and overall very charming. Will stay there again sometime.

Absolutely loved our stay and how the hotel was catered to skiiers/snowboarders. Would definitely recommend!

Nice staff, cute lobby and fire pit area, clean comfortable rooms, would definitely recommend!
