The big let down was when we got there at night, there was a sign that said the front desk would be back 30 minutes later. We were cold and tired, and had to wait 30 minutes for a supposedly 24-hour front desk.

Nice that it is located right next to Donner Memorial Park. The hallways and grounds need to be cleaned and better maintained, looking kind of run down. Not the exceptional rating that I saw online, more like just a good rating.

I appreciated that the Hotel Staff sent me a message letting me know that I left my Camelbak Backpack in the room. Then they shipped it to my home for me. Very professional and trustworthy staff. I would definitely stay again if I am ever back in the area.
