Lone Pine Lodge Reviews from the WebHostelz.com Guest Reviews
I'm Greatful To have An Affordable Place Maybe It's Not The Hyatt, so what The Management Tries. I'm ThankFul that they Don't require a Deposit For the Monthly! It's Going To "Literally-Be-A-Lifesaver" For Me. $550/month-Furnished. It'll Be Safe-Warm with TV Microwave-Fridge-So I'll get my Own Coffee Maker-I'm Appreciative-Greatly Thank You! — Anonymous , American-USA (2011-10-18) If Highway 50 is the yellow brick road, then the Lone Pine Hostel is without a doubt the Land of Oz. Upon entering property, visitors might take time to notice the close proximity of Harvey's which rests just a short stumble up the road. One may also find beautiful Lake Tahoe just yards from their parking lot, a luxury for those possessing a valid beach pass. The bell on the front door treats visitors to the sounds of the old country while the aroma of decomposing lift ticket coupons and stale laundry brings memories of "new Tahoe." Be sure to notice the petite sized lobby containing low ceilings and a window just to the left. A wonderful treat for midgets and the common dwarf. The peculiar experience continues as a door from behind the front counter opens and the innkeeper presents himself boasting a shabby '80s rock t-shirt and robe. Keeping with the tradition of the pioneer days, cash is king at this traditional motel and I strongly recommend you pay the rate with the exact amount. If you've made reservations prior to arrival, it's at this point that you may want to ask for the "Uncle Sam Special" in which room tax is commonly ignored (their IRS gamble only means more chips in your pocket). The rooms can be a bit unsightly and I've seen cleaner bathrooms at a Reno Chevron, but for the price and the four hundred twenty friendly hallways, visitors won't find a better deal. Free in-room coffee (bring your own pot) and removable lampshades mark this experience as extremely memorable. Note: a reminder to wait a few minutes for the television to turn on once you've clicked the power button. Running water, a working lock, and framed picture of the Golden Gate Bridge round out the added luxuries of this one-of-a-kind player's suite. True to the Nevada state line reputation as a no nonsense "play and stay" motel, the hostel is a gambler's paradise. Even when one as felt hopped for days, he can find comfort in knowing he'll have a place to stay with the "Bottom Bunk Special" for eighteen dollars a night. Visitors will surely find that the hostel creates a unique standard for all its guests and stands alone among all South Lake Tahoe motels of its kind. — Roy Horn (2006-05-25) This place is cheap for a reason - it is pretty terrible. We will, however, start with the (few) positivies
Good points: (a) you can walk to gondola with skiis (b) there is always parking, prob because no-one else stays there (c) best shower in South Lake Tahoe bar none (hot and seriously powerful) (d) relatively quiet (e) cheap
Bad points: (a) my room was not cleaned in two weeks, despite requesting of management (b) the TV is stone-age (c) the beds are bad news (d) rubbish is not collected by 'management' (e) spa pool doesnt work (f) interior decor is older than my grandmother and (g) heater was hanging together by luck.
Bad people don't go to heaven, they end up here. — Gordon Bennett (2006-02-27) this place is a rip off: beware. the heater didnt' work and it took the property manager 5 hours to get around to finding someone to fix it. at that point, he decided that the capable repair man was no good, so he proceeded to try and adjust this gas heater himself, unsuccessfully (while probably puting us at risk). by then it was 10 pm and we were tired from a day of riding, so we told the weasle to get lost so we could sleep. He finally got a small, inadequate electric space heater which barely had the room warm by morning. if you get a room with working amenities at a reasonable price, you're doing all right. if you get a lemon like us, you might as well count your losses and leave because there is no way to deal with the douch bag that runs the place. we paid $65 for the room. drop an extra 20 bucks at a real hotel and save yourself the trouble. — john brecken (2006-01-25) This is more like a hotel then a hostel. It's in a good location right next to town center and has a hot tub and the rooms are nice and clean with en suites. There are no dorms so it makes it really hard to meet other people if you are travelling by yourself. Although you get a double bed and bathroom to yourself, if you are not with anyone you will have to pay for the whole room yourself. — Andrew (2005-07-05) This is not a hostel at all but a cheap 2 star motel. Can't complain though, mid-week prices were pretty good for winter. The location is good, walking distances to all the casinos and restaurants plus Heavenly is awesome for snowboarding. — Anonymous (2005-05-02)
