Border House at Crystal Bay Casino

The TV didn’t work, neither did the volume so at night it didn’t turn off or turn done leading me to not be able to sleep. During the day the volume was too low to hear. The fan also made loud noises all day and night.

The room was fairly comfortable in an outdated charm, sort of way. The bathroom was fun with a slightly cringey led light equipped jet bath tub. Relaxing. The front desk staff at the casino who own the small hotel next door are just not very friendly and unwilling to provide helpful customer service. We decided to stay because hotels.com offered a better price. The casino was adamantly not willing to accommodate a military discount or upgrade any accommodations, like offering two beds after knowing we accidentally ordered one. They had plenty of other rooms. In truth, the hotel rooms were quaint, cute even. It’s the Casino staff and its smokey stench of an 80s throwback hangout for lonely slot machine enthusiasts, is the only problem. Hold your breath, pay for you room quickly, answer yes to their robotic questions and then go enjoy Lake Tahoe.

Cute and comfortable boutique hotel in a convenient location. Our only complaint is that you have to check in at the casino next door. No one was at the player's club desk so we had to hunt for an employee. He had to call for someone to come and check us in. Strange there is no front desk at the actual hotel. Other than that inconvenience, we had a nice stay.

The real stuff right? Good water pressure! Quiet area after sunset. Only suggestion would be a microwave.

The room is very clean. The bathroom is spacious.

A wonderful find! The house is beautiful, the rooms are large and very elegantly decorated and it’s quiet and has a rural feel despite being in the hub of things.

Its a great place to stay. Central location, close to the casino. I wish it had an ice machine on site.

Beautiful property and the room was gorgeous, better than I could have hoped for

Pros-Historic, spacious, nice bathroom and good location. Cons-Dark, poor lighting in bedroom. Bathroom sink not draining, indoor and patio furniture as well as common areas very dusty. No instructions of any kind, phone does not access reception.

Upon check in, no one was monitoring reception. Had to summon the cashier to get someone...arrived 5 min. later. Hallway leading to room smelled of beer. Dimly lit hallways, seedy kind of feel. Access / safety controls were up to date. Room was outdated and old, including carpet, fixtures, drapes, bathroom flooring, etc. Lighting in the room was inadequate, including the bathroom and mirror. Bedding and towels were clean. Other amenities were adequate and present (soaps, shampoo, dryer, coffee, etc.). Shower area was roomy and good shower head (probably due to disability access) Environment was quiet. Overall I felt like I was in a room which could have been in a crime scene drama. I wouldn't recommend.
