There was no person available at checkin, just a lock box with room keys. Dirty sock left in our room by a previous guest was not a welcome surprise.

Blue Bird Inn 2nd time stay
This 2nd time here was much better than the 1st time. The room was cleaner and no wet carpet/floor, no dirty and sticky tables, and drawers didnt have the last person's stuff in it. That's from our 1st time staying at Blue Bird Inn. Our 2 rooms were nasty our 1st time here. This 2nd time though, love that there's AC and heater in the room, hot and cold water, a few toiletries, towels. I wish the bathroom have something to hang towels on. Appreciate that there was a hair blow dryer in our room. Thank you for that!!! Easy to check in and easy to get our keys to our room. Parking is a little tight. So if you have a truck or big car, it'll be a tight squeeze. Smaller cars will be ok.

Great location. Walking distance to a public beach. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Cheryl at the front desk was so delightful and very helpful. She knew the area well and gave us suggestions on where to go. We would definately stay again the next time we are in Lake Tahoe.

Clean, in process of being upgraded but rooms are nice enough. Great location near beach, shops, restaurants. Quiet residencial area. Our room was quite small but I noticed most were much bigger. Biggest downside was no coffee in room.

Our room was perfect for our needs. 3 comfortable queen sized beds for our family of 5 and my daughters best friend. We all slept well for a decent price. Not a fancy room but good for our needs considering we spent most of our time out of the room. We were able to rest, clean up and an added perk was the mini fridge and microwave. Also the hotel is close to everything. Only one thing spooked our girls, a spider 🕷 on the bed. Once we dealt with that it was good.
