I consider this more of a warning/PSA than a review.
Tahoe is expensive and we stayed at this place to save a few bucks. It's quirky and the photos seemed fine.
We met the host, he was cordial and claimed the place was cleaned, so thought nothing of it until we spent a couple hours there. He went out to get toilet paper because of course there wasn't any.
I'm far from a clean freak, but this place gave me the willies. Everything was adding insult to injury.
Some other 'amenities' that you might not be aware of:
-Nasty dishes in sink. Dirty dishes in cabinet
-Nice 'Open Air Ant Farm' in the bathroom sink. Watch them make their own little city!
-The duvet with literal caked vomit on it
-Old school ski-town vibe decorations, covered in the original dust!
-Shampoo bottle 'decorations' in the bathroom (empty, of course)
-Play the game of 'avoid the sharp, cracked kitchen tiles'...Hours of fun!
-Sweat out your toxins in 80 Degree bedroom-sauna. No air conditioning or fan needed!
-We have photos but can’t post to this review
I feel better after writing this, but this is far and away the grossest place I've stayed in, and I've stayed in some doozies.
*** The host offered to take off the cleaning fee (never got cleaned, clearly)... We requested he cut the bill in half, to which he responded that it wasn't possible because there aren't other places this cheap in Tahoe that have big screen TV's and sleeps ten people. There are two twin beds and a Queen. OK buddy ;)
